        I was only in the trial for 2 weeks when 2 brain lesions were discovered and removed the following week. I understand I was the only participant and OHSU was the only site up and operating. The surgeries caused ne to be dropped but I’m starting il-2 in sept

          Just yesterday I completed screening for this treatment at Oregon Health Sciences University with a planned start date of next Wednesday, jul 17. I got 10 months of help with zelboraf before the cancer adapted and am eager to get underway with treatment again. The bulk of my cancer is in my lungs, predominantly my left lung and one node/nodule is partially blocking an airway at the top of the lung. I tolerated zelboraf well.

                Very very encouraging news. I’m screening for this trial at Ohsu after failing an earlier trial. (Not of this combination) due to disease progression. I’ve been stage iv for over a year and was on zelboraf for much of that time. It took the cancer 10 months to adapt.

                          Thank you Dick. I finished all the screening and testing and I’m patient #1. Also learned from scans for this trial that my most stubborn nodule in my left lung has only gone from 11 mm to 22 mm in the last 7 weeks and I only have one other small nodule in that lung. Good time to hit them with MEK, p13K and mTor inhibitors. I start at 8:00 am on Wednesday. Congratulations on your contined good success with Zelsboraf.

                                Thanks Holly. Plan B if the drugs in the clinical stop working is ipi and I’ve wondered how well that would work.
