Nivolumab aka Opdivo

At this point I'm just scheduled for chemo with
Pemetrexed and cisplatin.
I am wondering about receiving immunotherapy in addition to chemo, given my Kras G12D status. It appears I should've been given this perioperatively. Studies give much better result if given pre resection. I'm wondering if there is any data post operative given my stage 2a status?
Seems like everything is for stage 3 or 4 if postoperative???

Hi @zora0121, Unfortunately, the research doesn't always keep up with our needs. I'm not an expert, I'm a patient with the ALK mutation. Just because it hasn't been researched and documented doesn't mean that it won't be beneficial for your 2a stage. Have you started the chemo? Have you asked your team about the possibility of immunotherapy?
