        How did you tolerate the interferon if you don’t mind me asking?

              Thanks for sharing your story. I’m hoping this works for my mother. She is 63 y.o.

                          The trial they want my mother in she will receive both treatments at the same time (ipi and interferon). The ipi is randomized to either 10 mg or 3 mg arm. Then after the "Induction" phase (six weeks) she will have a right total neck dissection.

                          when your husband was on the 10 mg how did he tolerate the ipi? Any major side effects?

                           

                          Thanks so much for responding. I have been in the medical field for 13 years but non of my focus was in oncology so this forum has been very helpful to hear from others.
