DART Trial
His cancer has progressed on multiple chemos and on the
immunotherapy
Tecentriq. I am not hopeful that this trial will benefit him. He does carry the BRCA2 gene. We have Lynparza as our last treatment option. He wants in the trial.

Cancer patients may not have higher Covid-19 risk
In particular, the researchers speculate that oncological treatments (especially
immunotherapy
) may prevent “cytokine storms” where a Covid-19 patient’s immune system goes into dangerous overdrive causing lung inflammation.

Castration resistance
Anybody doing any clinical trials with
immunotherapy
or high dose testosterone pulse therapy that Hopkins is studying? Also heard that 2 new drugs that repair DNA were release 2 weeks ago. Just curious what other castration resistant prostate cancer warriors out there are doing?

Update on Ryan
His vitiligo on his hands have extended up his arms - and by the medical journals I have read - that has been consistent with a good outcome of
immunotherapy
. Which we see. He is doing and feeling the best he has since his last tome NED. He is OFF steroids!

CLL treatment prognosis
The question related to Chemo/
immunotherapy
route specifically and the length of time between courses of treatments. Realise this is a question for my clinician but interested in your experience. I’m in my 40s and generally fit and active and generally good at absorbing info. Just a lot to take in!

My Mum part 3
She’s stage 3b with NSCLC adenocarcinoma and is having chemo and
immunotherapy
at the same time. She hasn’t had any side effects up until yesterday when she said really bad fatigue but her. I just wanted to ask if this is normal?

Not very happy
The hospital suspended my
immunotherapy
treatment 9 weeks ago which I was having for stage 4 lung cancer. I also have ipf and at the moment my breathing is very poor indeed. Spoke to oncologist 2 weeks ago who told me I will have a scan in July and see her in August!

Opdivo and Yervoy combination approved for Non-small cell lung cancer
The approval of Opdivo (nivolumab) and Yervoy (ipilimumab) marks the first approval of combined
immunotherapy
treatment for NSCLC. This gives patients whose cancer does not have a targetable change a new avenue for treatment and more options than they have ever had.

SF3B1 Mutations
If and when these patients need treatment they should have a targeted therapy or look for a clinical trial of novel agents, rather than have chemo-
immunotherapy
such as FCR, BR or Chlorambucil. https://ashpublications.org/blood/article/121/23/4627/31480/SF3B1-mutations-in-chronic-lymphocytic-leukemia

Myasthenia Gravis with NSCL cancer
It started suddenly on his week off from chemo and
Immunotherapy
. He’s been so weak he’s been unable to have chemo in over four months. He’s on steroids and pyridostigmine 3x a day and the double vision is better but that’s the only change.

*New Treatment*
Even though it was beginning to not work anymore, I’m glad I got a chance to try
Immunotherapy
because now I don’t have to wonder what it would be like. I switched treatments about two weeks ago. So far, so good. A little indigestion but I take Pepcid for that now.

Mike is on hospice
Mikes last
immunotherapy
treatment was on 3/09. He progressed and had several falls and other complications which placed him in the hospital twice. His oncologist deemed that he was too weak to continue treatment.
