Keytruda and prostate cancer

[Terje]

Has anyone with a BRCA2 mutation had Keytruda approved by Medicare for treatment of their prostate cancer? I found this article from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center very interesting.

I'm sure you will receive multiple answers soon. Quite a few guys here have been that route.

Besides my Pca I also am fighting a Lung melanoma. My lung melanoma is being treated at Sloan Kettering using Keytruda and it's working.

I suppose you got it approved because of the melanoma diagnosis? Is it also working on your PC?

[j-o-h-n in reply to Terje]

When I asked both my Pca MO and my Melanoma MO they said that the Keytruda I'm getting has no affect on my PCA,,,, too bad. But I do know that it works on Lung melanomas in general.
