duodenal cancer - my father

Hi all,

 

thanks for listening my story. My father has diagnosed with duodenal cancer with stage 4 in May 2018. One year past, we had 12 times chemo therapy and another twice new drug chemotherapy, totally 14 times until now. But it seems the tumour progresses now. 

 

So I want to try the immunetherapy—-PD1 or PDL1 . But I don’t have any data or research about it using for duodenal cancer/small intestine cancer. Can anyone know about it? How many of using this new therapy?

 

Hope can hear from you, thanks.

 

 

Ivy J

It is ok. Thanks for asking. My father is only 55 years old now. I hope the immune therapy can really help him.
