Hi Tilley, For my recurrent, I had 3 tumors and some invasion in 2 pelvic lymph nodes.

I did taxol and Carboplatin for six rounds, every three weeks. It reduced 2 tumors and 2 more seem to be gone. I am not on Keytruda, every three weeks, with a scan after 4 sessions, which will be in August.

Also, it is not a trial anymore. It was approved for certain types of endometrial cancer last year
