      Hi, I haven't posted in a while. My daughter has just had her 7th infusion of Keytruda and while the tumor is still contained in liver with no spreading, there has not been any change in tumor size. It is still between 9 and 10cm. They are now discussing the combo of Braf Inhibitors. Has anybody had any success with this? They are still saying that surgery is NOT an option. Thanks!
