After a recent kidney removal I have found I am Leibovich high score for recurrence. i am being offered Keytruda which has been shown to reduce death (at 5 yrs), the only issue is side effects. Has anyone else had this ? How well was it tolerated? Thanks 

  • I couldn't remember the drug name for Keytruda so I looked it up and adding it here for others: Pembrolizumab.  I'm on on other stuff but there's people on here on it.  You can try the search box for "pembro", filter your results on this group and you should get the links to discussions about it.  Or click here.
