My oncologist called me with ct results, a new tumour has appeared on upper right lung, at first said 10mm then said more like 2mm, my previous tumours have continued to shrink. I have just finished my 2years of keytruda, has this happened to any one else progression and shrinkage at the same time and any advice of what happens next. I'm stage 4 nsclc.

  • Hi Sharon3762, sorry I haven’t had any experience with this, but I would certainly be going back to my Oncologist for further advice and clarity. There’s a big difference between 10mm and 2mm.

    Completely agree with Chelle that the best ones to advise you are your team. 

    Hopefully if needed there are many more treatment options available to you. 

    Best of luck

    Hi Sharon

    Similar story for me, looks like main tumour has grown but not clear, and one on node in right lung has shrunk from 12mm to 5mm. I have had 6 cycles of Keytruda ( second line).
