Hi all any of you have had any reaction to Avelumab infusion immunotherapy please? My husband was on his 2nd treatment today but have had a reaction… shortness of breath and fainted… infusion was stop straight away and was given another  dose of antihistamine. He is ok now apart from a bit sleepy having piriton. Please let me know if you’ve have had same reaction and what was your treatment plan after. Thank you!

  • Hi

    I'm not on this treatment but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet.

    I typed 'avelumab' into the group search bar and found these previous posts which mention it for you to have a look through. 

    It would be great if you could pop something about about your husband's diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.

    I hope your husband is feeling a lot better now
