Metastatic lung cancer: Has anyone taken part in a clinical trial?

Posted by fontspec @fontspec, Dec 4, 2025

I’ve been on here before, it’s been awhile though. Lung cancer since 2014, double lobectomy, chem,radiation. Now it has metas Metastasized to numerous areas. I’m possibly going to sign up for a clinical trial. Has anyone done this?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Lung Cancer Support Group.

Well, sponsors will not accept my second biopsy, so it’s option 2, which is chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Upside, I can do this at home. I’ve been reading some patients side effects, what does everyone that is on ketruda or has been on it think?

@fontspec , Sometimes these decisions get made for us, and it's the right one. Being able to stay home will certainly be a benefit, especially this time of year.
