    I’ve been on Keytruda Immunotherapy for a few months now and doing well. I had Squamous Cell Carcinoma. After an operation and skin + muscle graft, I had radiation. The cancer was starting to come back. I did not think that I would do well on chemo, so I chose to go on immunotherapy treatments. I’m more than halfway through this treatment and feel great.

      Kaytrude to work, you have to have the P T1 and PT L1 protein gene, I have squamous cell carcinoma of the neck and just did extensive blood work and it came back that I don't have that protein PD1,, Also Kaytruda ,long term causes major heart damage,,, FYI,,
      Good luck to You🙏

    I have metastasized colon cancer in my liver stage 4 I have been on Keytruda (pembrolizumab) for about 13 months now. We have seen a great response in tumors as they are significantly smaller than when we began the treatment. Oncologist would like to continue treatment after surgery. the surgery would hopefully remove the remains of cancer in my liver, because of my situation ( I have lynch syndrome) I am being told that a very very long term of Immuno therapy is needed. My question is .... is it possible for the cancer to become immune to this therapy and once again attack my system ignoring the treatment? Should I eventually stop this treatment and give my body a break? my side effects are extreme fatigue, weight gain, decreased sex drive, among a few other things.

  • @sneakyguy4444
    @sneakyguy4444 5 лет назад +3

    The problem with PD1 therapy is the immune system will once again ignore the cancer once the blockade inhibitors run out. Blockading self recognition proteins also means alot of other healthy cells can get attacked if they use the same cell recognizer to protect itself from autoimmune attack.

      Just as important as therapies that have a great response on different tumors and bio markers we should also look at the things not to do that cause more harm to the patient and threaten their survival. We can learn what protocols not to do if they injur the patient whole body and quality of life.

    this is a bit of a long shot im not a doctor but fascinated with the human body i had an idear in 1997 and would like to know if its possible any one can answer but dont abuse me please im just trying to help ,first take a sample of a cancerous tumor ,assuming its a solid tumor but in principle my i dear could work on all cancers , infuse or infect what ever the correct word would be the cancer cells with a harmless retro virus ,vaccinate the patient from the virus placing the cancer and virus which now joined back into the patient,then by nature the virus will multiply as would the cancer but together,and in doing so would create the specific immune response needed to kill the cancer or at least keep it at safe levels also insuring any time a flare up would occure as long as a booster like in tetnas would keep the immune response current is this poss at all

      A couple of years ago, Jimmy Carter announced that he had cancer in his liver that had metastasized to his brain. He was 91 or 92 at the time and was very open about how he did not expect to recover from this cancer. He was treated at Duke University with a checkpoint inhibitor blockade drug (a drug based on the original research for which the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physiology & Medicine was awarded to James Allison, PhD of M.D Anderson Cancer Center in Houston and a Japanese researcher named Dr Honjo.) Within a few months, he was cancer-free, with few side effects.
