Hi @millielambert, welcome. You'll notice that I moved your message to the Head & Neck Support Group here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/head-neck-cancer/

I did this so that you can more easily meet others who have cancers of the head and neck region like @hrhwilliam @nnurse @jano @sepdvm @alpaca and more.

Hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma is a very rare form of head and neck cancer, most commonly starting in the salivary glands. I'm sorry to hear that your cancer is spreading and quickly. What treatment is your cancer team suggesting?

My oncologist in Kalamazoo already tried having genome matches in Chicago but there were less than 1 % success matches. She is now suggesting a form of immunotherapy and I an going to MD Anderson tomorrow for a second opinion. Thanks for responding. I have been very lost throughout this process.
