      I've been trying to get my boyfriend into an anti-pd1 trial with Dr. Ribas at UCLA.  His Oncologist called Dr. Ribas today to discuss setting up an appointment to meet with him, to hopefully get into the new cohort that is pending for patients previously treated with Yervoy, and then progressed.  My boyfriends Oncologist said Dr. Ribas was seeing about 50% response rate for patients previously treated with Yervoy and then taking Anti-pd1.  I hope that statistic is mentioned in the webinar.  That response rate is amazing.
