Hi all,

I'm Stu and was diagnosed last week with Renal Cancer and secondary bone cancer. I was told today the cancer has also spread to my lungs. 

Next steps are renal biopsy and TKI.

Take care

  • Hi Stu, welcome to the group but sorry you find yourself here. I have no personal experience myself of Targeted therapy, but there are a few members  in our group who are on this treatment. It does seem to be becoming a popular form of treatment. From what I know of it, cancer cells are attacked, but causes less damage to healthy cells, unlike the traditional chemotherapy.

    Hopefully someone who has experience of this treatment will be along to share their experience with you soon. X
