Re: ZW25 clinical trial - day one

I would question the doctor. Keytruda can have serious even fatal side effects but the side effects are immunological. The T cells become too active and can cause auto-immune disease. If this occurs the Keytruda can be stopped and prednisone therapy started. Sometimes the Keytruda can be restarted again. If Keytruda is used alone as an immunological therapy the incidence of auto immune disease is only about 3%, maybe less. The usual side effects of Keytruda are fatigue, loss of appetite, joint pain, cough, sodium loss and increase of blood sugar. Talk again with the doctor.Maybe Im missing something.
