Darrell gets congratulations on a lot of fronts - having an oncologist who helped him find a trrial, getting a slot in the MPDL3280A single-agent trial, (apparently) being positive for the protein required for the trial, having a stable scan, and a decreasing CEA. Major WOW!
One member posted that she had been told only about 6% of CRC patients are positive for the protein. Darrell does sound very fortunate indeed. Plus he has a caring sister. Lucky guy!
There aren't a lot of rules to the Colon Club, except the big one - Play Nice! You are welcome to start a post, or add your thoughts to an on-going one. There are a couple of other trials with separate threads, but we are also trying to have a continued thread here, not only about our progress on trials, but about the "trials and tribulations" of finding a clinical trial to begin with.
Best wishes to Darrell and to you,
Dianne

Can you tell us if Darrell had his tumor tested for a protein before being admitted into the trial?
That is such wonderful news for him!!
