Hi, lv. Yes, you are correct. The study was done on lung and skin cancers. But the underlying theory is that covid vaccines sensitize cancerous tumors to immune checkpoint inhibitors such as Keytruda, making them much more effective. Some might think that is worth getting a covid shot if they are on Keytruda and have a solid tumor cancer, such as ovarian cancer.
