Hello,I just had my fourth infusion of pembro today. So far I have had no side effects that I know. Has anyone had no side effects and still had a response? Do side effects ever occur later into the treatment?
It’s adjuvant but with very high risk of recurrence, I’m hoping for some sign that it’s working or not.Any info or experience is appreciated!
Thanks,
Martha

I cannot speak specifically to Pembro, but I know the Ipi-Nivo cocktail can have side effects occur as late as a couple years after treatment.I asked that question after two or three weeks after starting Ipi-Nivo as I had no side effects. I was told not read into not having side effects as a sign it is not working. Apparently some rev’ed up immune systems are better at targeting the disease vs other organs. It’s totally dependent on the individual.
