Re: Anyone on Keytruda or Opdivo
There is a trial here in Melbourne, where one woman I know with Stage IV breast cancer has just begun treatment with Herceptin and Keytruda. I don't know much more than that though. Good luck with your new treatment..... Pam

YanYan I am sorry you still have to look for new treatments but I believe in immunotherapy. I hope you will have good results and minor side effects. Hugs. Michka

Re: Anyone on Keytruda or Opdivo
Thank you everyone for your encouragement! I'm hoping to spend 3 weeks in Europe this summer with my 9 yr old. She is been wanting to visit the Eiffel Tower and Amsterdam. This trip is on the bucket list.
