My wife Val has been on a course of Ipi/Nivo and has just completed her first complete round of treatments. Spread over 12 weeks or so, and she has just received a call from her Oncologist. Unfortunately, there's been no shrinkage in her tumour and cancer has now spread to her lungs. Pretty devastating news, but he told her he will start her on a course of Cabozantinib in two to three weeks' time.
I have looked up on line to see what the drug is used for and it is recommended for RCC advanced stages. I wonder if anyone is on this treatment and would be interested to hear of their experience.
We live in hope,
Kind Regards, Ron.
