Yes, he did immunotherapy (Keytruda) and target (Lenvima). When he was first diagnosed the cancer had spread to his left lung where he had multiple small tumors and a larger 1.6 cm tumor. After taking the treatment all the tumors except the large one was gone and the large one had shrunk to .9 cm and has not changed in over one year. So it made some go away, and one shrink and it continues to be stable. So it appears it's working. I can't say everyone would have the same results but for him it was as good as we hoped for.
