@kakalena My dr has recommended Carboplatin + pemetrexed + pembrolizumab. Has anyone else used this combo and what's your experience been with keeping cancer in control? I do not have EGFR, ALK etc. so there are no fda approved targets at this point.
@kakalena thanks for sharing your experience with Stage 4. Did you need chemo as well or did you go straight to immunotherapy? Does the drug Opdiva help you with treating the lymph node or is there more needed now?
