Stopping Keytruda due to adverse effects

Posted by abob @abob, 2 days ago

After 24 Keytruda infusions thru 1.5yrs, my husband has developed adverse symptoms — Afibs, hyperthyroidism, skin rash, gi issues, lack of appetite, fatigue, etc. Oncologist wanted 2 years, but thinks next infusion will be his last.

I hope my husband recovers from Keytruda side effects & lives cancer free for many years.

Has this been anyone else’s experience? Thx

Have just started Keytruda treatments, every three weeks. So far, so good after the first two weeks. Were any of the conditions you cited pre-existing, or possibly brought on by your long term treatments? Clean CAT? Ty, Chuck 78 y/o
