Hope
But if we can get him off steroids which the Avastin will allow; that re opens the door for the
immunotherapy
that could save his life. Chemotherapy is a bridge essentially the way she put it. It will buy us time but is definitely not curative.

Experience with Clinical Trial
The next stage of my treatment (
immunotherapy
along with the orals) has been delayed a week to give my Neut# time to recover. They will consider Nulasca depending on my blood work next week. Have others had similar experiences?

Need your suggestions, please
This is my first post. First of all, bless all of you warriors out there. My husband has been fighting pc for 22 years.

Two months on Hospice
He has many challenges to face but he survived multiple rounds of chemo, androgen deprivation therapies, radiation and
immunotherapy
and severe side effects from everything and that says something for how strong he is.

Constipated but in U Colitis remission
Currently though, I'm having
immunotherapy
for NSCLC, and that seems to have it's own constipation issues. Wondering if there's anything I can get from a weekend chemist or supermarket that will help as it's been 4 days this time.

And the results....
He can’t do
immunotherapy
anymore because he has progressed on that, and now has progressed on targeted therapy. They want to do chemotherapy. Taxol and carboplatin. What the hell is that? Is that really our last option? That’s garbage..

Scans look great, next step Provenge and holding off on 2nd line hormone therapies
The specialist at the Cleveland clinic said that he's a perfect candidate for provenge
immunotherapy
. She was very excited as she said she doesn't get to prescribe it very often as most men don't fall within the parameters of qualification.
