Immunotherapy

Hi 

I have been following the immunotherapy progress from the USA for around two to three years to the point ( I think) MSI patients now get put on Keytrunda as first line treatment . Some are successfully through their two years of treatment with no evidence of disease and going solo . 

You might want to have a look in the Lung forum here or the Melanoma forum for side effects if you are going on Keytrunda . They are a wee bit further down the road than Bowel cancer .

My friend had an amazing response to a significant spread of lung cancer . She had been on platinum based chemo so similar to bowel cancer and found it all manageable compared to chemo . Unfortunately a kidney issue interfered with it but she had a fantastic response . 
We don’t get too many people getting access to Immunotherapy so I am hoping it goes really well for you .

Take care,

Court 

Hi Annie,

Hope you're feeling well. I don't know about immunotherapy firsthand, but I read about it lately and I think it could be the future of fighting with cancer.

Did you see this article: https://www.cityu.edu.hk/research/stories/2020/02/20/cityu-young-scholars-research-rare-cells-brings-hope-new-cancer-immunotherapy-and-vaccine? I really hope that this will work for you.

Best wishes,

Marie
