Recent pre-clinical studies on mice exposed to large amounts of oxaliplatin resulted in tumor conversion which is what was suspected in what happened in my case of dealing with stage IV disease and then able to eradicate minimal residual disease. It was found that the oxaliplatin caused immunologically cold tumors to exhibit neoantigens on the surface of the tumors. This made them recognizable by various immune system cells-two important ones were TCR lymphocytes and CD8+ memory T cells which surveil the body for several years to clear MRD from tissues and organs as well as the circulation. I did 24 cycles of Folfirinox at full dose.
