Has anyone been on the drug Keytruda? I was told by my consultant it could be a future option as it has been approved in the uk.
Does anyone know if alectinib is being approved soon?

Hello Giblets9, the drug Keytruda (pembrolizumab), is one of the new immunotherapy drugs and has recently been approved for 2nd line treatment in NSCLC, it may be available on a clinical trial Cancer Research UK has details of all current clinical trails in the UK. Currently I am not aware of any patients on trails with this drug. There is some information on the cancer research website about the drug which may be of interest to you
