NIce find.... more proof that immunotherapy is working wonders in cancer and specifically, advanced prostate cancer....NCI Match trial will advance treatment greatly.... praying that TRC 253 or TAS3681 can make inroads on wild/mutated AR which leads to castration resistance...Thank you...Hope for the new year...

I wonder if there are similar trials available in Canada for my dear father who would be a candidate for this kind of treatment.
