Hello lovely ladies
i hope you are all well and had a relaxing extended holiday xx
just wanted to ask a question please… my mums on a 2 year immunotherapy trial - Atezolizumab…. It’s for two years… stupid question but what happens after two years? I assume it is stopped? Will the doctors suggest a wait and see approach or switch mum over to another drug?
sorry for perhaps asking a silly question but I am a bit clueless as to what happens after two years.. mums scan is clear at the moment touchwood x she was treated for a recurrence of endometrial cancer and had chemo this time round to treat the recurrence plus they gave mom the trial drug. First time round mum had a hysterectomy and radiotherapy only but it came back…
lots of love to you all ️ xxxx
Hi Lucki2021. The only thing I can suggest is to ask your Mum's Consultant what happens next.
As I believe it's quite a new treatment I'm not sure anyone here would know to be honest. In my position I'm very interested in what happens next so when you find out anything let us know.
Great to hear your Mum's scan was clear! Send her our love.
Hugs, Barb xx
