Does anyone (or their onc) have a view on this recent Penn State study? The summary is that in a retrospective analysis of patients on immunotherapy, those that were also on pan beta-blockers showed much higher survival rates (70% 5-year survival) than those not on beta-blockers (25%). The focus was on melanoma patients, but given the parallels in treatment between that and CRC I think it's interesting for people who, like me, are on atezolizumab, pembro, nivo etc.
Best wishes to all,
Tim
New study: beta-blockers (e.g. Propranolol) enhance immunotherapy?

Tim, Thank You! for sharing this info.
I am looking for a good Forum (like ColonClub) with info for a friend, her DH has just been diagnosed with Melanoma. It looks like I can find valiable info for her right here!
Again, Thank you <3
