Stage IV NSCLC - Very Agressive
He took his first infusion of generic
Keytruda
two weeks ago, and is to take his second infusion in a week. As his caregiver, it is so hard to see the pain he is in, even though he has morphine and hydrocodone. As of today, he will begin radiation treatments on his belly for his severe pain.

A Question on PD-L1
I've been reading about the immunotherapy
keytruda
, It mentions something about PD-L1 levels... I'm wondering if this is generally checked when the do the original biopsy to confirm malignancy? As the doctors have never explained it to us. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

An immunotherapy now approved for first-line treatment
Late yesterday, the FDA approved
Keytruda
(an immunotherapy) as a first-line treatment for patients with lung cancer whose tumors express high levels of PD-L1. This means that
Keytruda
could be used as the first treatment after diagnosis (instead of chemotherapy) in some patients.

Keytruda
Hi everyone, was at the clinic having Chemo and ran into a lady having
Keytruda
. It isn't approved for ovarian cancer here so she has to pay for her infusions. So everyone of them, she is paying over $4000.00 per treatment. This will cost her over $25,000.

Promising news from a European oncology meeting
- Pembrolizumab (
Keytruda
) improved survival vs chemo as first-line therapy in patients with NSCLC if they had high levels of the biomarker PD-L1. Pembrolizumab is already approved as second-line therapy (for NSCLC), but could be FDA-approved as first-line therapy by December 24.
