pembrolizumab clinical trial. First session was fine but no visible sign yet that it will work as lymph nodes are still swollen...
Tom - I looked up the
pembrolizumab trial for colorectal cancer, and if I'm not mistaken this trial is only available in two centers: the Midwest, and the East Coast.
It looks like a good clinical trial protocol for you. You will be sure to get the drug (not placebo) and the dosing level will be set at an effective but not toxic level for the duration of the trial. I hope it starts to show results soon. The protocol says that they check for progress every 8 weeks.
Does this mean that you have moved away from the West Coast in order to participate in this trial? I hope things are going well.
Best wishes for the New Year.
