      Hey all..Because I still show progression in some nodes (after most sites being "resolved"), I was taken off Keytruda. We looked for a trial that I would eligible for and found this one. It's a combo of Keytruda and MGA271. I start on Monday. Combo every three weeks, mono every week. Just wondering if anyone else is in this trial? Celeste blogged about this trial back in July of '16. This should be interesting…first day calls for a 14 hour day. Most others will be about 7-8 hours. At least there is shopping near by for my wife.

      Keep up the good fight my friends.

      Nick

          Nick,

          I'm glad you found a trial! That's a full day of work for sure, man I feel smoked after 8 hours at MDA…are you a coffee drinker? Praying that this is the combo that puts down your mel once and for all! Please let us know about it once you get started and get a chance to post, I'm looking forward to hearing about it. 

          Tex
