    Thank you for sharing. It's good to know that there is ongoing research into metastatic AC treatment. My oncologist was very dismissive of any treatment other than palliative care for metastatic AC

    As unfortunate as it is that other HPV-related cancers exist, such as tonsil and cervical cancer, I believe those cancers and the attention they get, will benefit anal cancer research as well.  Anal cancer does seem to be getting more attention these days.
