Mandy, I’m so sorry about the reoccurrence. Five years is a long time in terms of drug/treatment development. What was not available five years ago may now be something that’s routinely done. My husband was in a phase 1 immunotherapy trial in 2013 but now it’s something that is regularly given to patients. You will probably learn more when you attend the tumor board. Keeping you in my thoughts.
