Diagnosed with sarcoma? Let's share

Hello, My 30yo cousin has extraskeletal osteosarcoma. It originated in her leg, but then metastasized to at least 4 other areas of her body because of her lymphatic system. She underwent radiation to the original area in her leg and followed with chemotherapy, but by then it was found in the other locations. So now the doctors at Sloan Kettering are taking her off the chemo to do radioactive immunotherapy, which she says is to keep it out her vital organs for as long as possible.
Does anyone have any recommendations for doctors to give 2nd opinions or knowledge of any clinical trials that could her?

Hi @zamphiria, your cousin is in good hands at Sloan Kettering. If you would like to consider a second opinion at Mayo Clinic, you can find more info here: http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

How is your cousin doing on immunotherapy?
