      Amanda has decided to participate in the above trial.  It is at Phase 1b.  IDK if I agree with her decision, but from what I understand, there really aren't any options left.  Has anyone been on this?  Thank you

          I have taken neither CAVATAK nor ipi and certainly not the combo.  However, this treatment has already demonstrated some good results.  Here are lots of reports on CAVATAK, intralesionals in general and in trials that have already produced results when CAVATAK and ipi were combined:

          Hope this helps and perhaps those who have actually taken it will answer as well.

          I wish you and your daughter my best.  Yours, celeste
