      Having tried ippimumilab that worked for 5 months we were informed we would be offered anti pd1.  when my husband was taken off ippi we were told that anti pd1 was no longer available – what happened and is is still available as I hear it has had great results in the US?

      Where should we go to ask about this as the Marsden will not offer?
