Opdivo and Abraxane

MJG1

Is anyone on here experienced with Opdivo for throat cancer? My husband will be starting a new study that combines Opdivo (Immunothrapy drug) and Abraxane (Chemotherapy) for his Head and Neck cancer. He was on a different study at Siteman Cancer Center in St. Louis, MO USA which included Keytruda and his tumor doubled in size. Very nervous wife here. Thanks for experiences shared.

I Do Not Have Experience

With the drug regimen, you are referring to.
I did find this talking about the combo trial if it helps at all.

A neighbor of ours was recently on an immunotherapy/chemotherapy regimen and it made her extremely tired so watch out for that.
They actually took her off of it because of that skipping the last 2 treatments and she is now back on immunotherapy alone.
I have texted her to see if she can tell me which drugs she was on.
If she knows I will let you know.
Sorry I am not much help but Wishing you the best-Take care-God Bless-Russ
