Barb1260 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I’m just wondering if anyone has ever gotten to NED on any immunotherapy regimen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rower Michelle Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 My good LC buddy with a high PDL-1 has been NED for over a year on Keytruda. One of the Lung Cancer Living Room peeps had two years of Keytruda and is now NED two years later with no further treatment. I think you’ve got a really great shot at it!

Barb1260 Posted May 31, 2019 Author Share Posted May 31, 2019 For some reason I can’t react. Hoping Imfinzi has the same results. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Hi Barb I totally understand where you are coming from. PDL1 neg gives me 12% chance, they say and I should take it because anyone else in my shoes would. Hmmm, after 5 treatments of durva I didn't feel that way. CT on 10/31 Doctor on 11/4 puttimg my faith in God, and hoping Doc has a plan for my treatment. Good luck and keep smiling!

Steff Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Barb, My mom was on Keytruda for about 1 year and stopped due to side effects. That was over 1 year ago and she is still NED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCM Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Steff (and others), Has anyone had success being treated with Keytruda in the absence of any biomarkers that support having it for treatment. My 3B cancer just change to IV because bilateral, multiple nodules are growing. I have no targeted mutations for treatment. I’ve already had chemo radiation followed by a right upper lobectomy and wedge resection of middle lobe. New nodules appeared at the first post surgical scan. But they were small and grew ever so lightly. Now at 9mm it’s time for action. Has anyone had a combination of chemo/immunotherapy at this junction?

Golfman Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Yes! NED is possible on immunotherapy. In Feb, 2019 I was diagnosed with SCLC which included a brain MET of approximatley 1/4-1/2" in size, very clearly shown on scans. I went through chemo which included Tecentriq and have been on an infusion schedule with that immunotherapy drug every three weeks since. Subsequent scans show that tumor getting progressively smaller, until the latest scan showing it completely gone. Amazing! I am a believer!! We are really blessed to live in these times. I'm scheduled for a chest a scan soon and hope to see the same results, but am extremely pleased with immunotherapy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
