Hi Robert,
That is great news that you are able to start the Merck trial. I am loking for a anti-pd1 trial.
Where is the trial? How often do you get the infusions? Anthing else you can tell us about the trial would be greatly appreciated.
Good Luck with the trial!

Robert – Glad to hear you are starting on anti pd-1. I have not posted on this forum before. As a recently diagnosed stage 4 melanoma patient I have spent countless hours on this site learning as much as possible but haven’t had much to contribute until now. (thank you by the way to all of the knowledgeable posters helping us newbies find our way). Anyway, I started on merck 3475 trial at the Angeles clinic in January after researching a number of trials and doctors. Like you, i go every two weeks for infusions. (The clinic is amazing by the way) I just finished my fourth treatment and have had virtually no side effects worth mentioning. It is early in the trial, but I am told they are seeing good results. I am so hopeful and will stay in touch as I learn more.-

Thanks for your post, its great to hear about minimal side effects. Do they do a pre infusion medication of any kind? Is Hamid your doctor? i'll check out your profile. I'd love to stay in touch as there are not many in the trial and it will be good to share exoeriences. God bless and take care. Robert

Robert,
There are no pre-infusion medications — Just labs followed by 1/2 hour infusion every other week. Dr. Hamid is my doctor. I haven’t yet created a profile but will do so after this post. Thanks again to you and others for sharing their experiences. I am so thankful to have found this site and will happily stay in touch regarding this trial. My thoughts and prayers go to you and others on this site fighting the battle.
