My final Journey will start next week

Postby boswind » Fri Oct 04, 2019 4:38 pm

Next Thur Oct 10 I will start either a phase 1 trial or take regorafenib. Basically, if the screen process indicates I am eligible for the trial, I most likely will start the trial. Currently I am communicating with the trial's principal investigator in order to have a few questions of mine on the trial drug's toxicity answered, though.

Because I took Keytruda during Mar-May of this year, I am excluded from most Phase II or I/O trials. The remaining drugs besides Regorafenib are TAS-102 and possibly reuse of Cetuximab.

Then wait for magic.
