ASCO presentations on melanoma research this week
The researchers found that the
immunotherapy
combination doubled the amount of time that the melanoma was stopped compared with giving nivolumab alone.

No intensification - is doc too laid back?
I can understand this in terms of
immunotherapy
like PD-1 and PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitors, which apparently require a higher mutational burden than my 4 Muts/Mb to have an effect (although my thinking was "why not try immuno anyway better safe than sorry").

Just to introduce myself
As only palliative care was offered, we read very widely (we are still reading and won't ever stop) and have had inter tumorial
immunotherapy
and cryo ablation with Dr Jason R Williams in Mexico. We are taking lots of supplements, COC drugs (no Doxy as it's an antibiotic) and RSO.

Immunotherapy Clinical Trial or Olaparib (Lynparza)?
We've been offered two options: 1. a trial of atezolizumab + cabozantinib - an
immunotherapy
treatment that seems to be promising in Breast Cancer. But, if he is put into the control group, he'd receive enzalutamide (another ADT drug). 2.

Continuing discussion of Adaptive Theory-- Why does early chemotherapy result in lower response rates to Lu-177 and immunotherapy??
In the CHECKMATE 650 trial (
Immunotherapy
), people that were chemo naive had a 25% response rate to Opdivo and Yervoy versus only a 10% response rate by those having previous chemo.

New York Times article on the recent Lutetium-177–PSMA-617 study [VISION] + NEJM paper
Standard-care therapies could not include cytotoxic chemotherapy, systemic radioisotopes (e.g., radium-223 [223Ra]),
immunotherapy
, or drugs that were investigational when the trial was designed (e.g., olaparib).

Details of the VISION trial of Lu-177-PSMA-617 presented at ASCO
Standard of care was planned before randomization and excluded chemotherapy,
immunotherapy
, radium-233, and investigational drugs. Responders with residual disease could receive combination treatment for 2 extra cycles. The alternate primary endpoints were radiographic PFS and OS.

Point 5: Make sure your Oncologist has run the tests to see if
immunotherapy
will work AND more importantly the tests to see if there are any mutations that targeted therapy with work on.

Father recently diagnosed with metastatic PC
My medical oncologist isn’t too supportive of
immunotherapy
because as per him they don’t work well in PC. But I might take a second opinion if others have benefitted from it. Or am I thinking too far ahead and should wait to see how ADT progresses? Also, does the ADT shrink the prostrate?

I'm going to start Taxotere, what are the experiences that you guys have had with it?
I'm just hoping this can get down to "not detectable", and The doc said he was going to send off my issues with medicine not working for study to get possible
immunotherapy
. I don't know much more than that. I can find out later. I'm not too worried about how I can handle this.

Immunotherapy alone extended life for metastatic lung cancer patients with KRAS mutation.
This survival difference by KRAS status was not seen, however, in patients treated with both chemotherapy and
immunotherapy
, suggesting combination therapy for patients without the mutation may be preferred.
