Very encouraging! Indeed, immunotherapy and "precision medicine" are going to be very important for MPCa patients. Thank you for posting this.

From the beginning of my diagnosis I ask my oncologist that if there is any opportunity with immunotherapy I sign up. But I always have the same answer: there is no scientific evidence with immunotherapy for prostate cancer.

Checkmate! Fantastic! Thanks for the great news. Hope it continues...
