Lynn finished ippi march 26. Had first scans april 11 they showed mixed results some grew some shurnk and some new ones. Dr said did not want to wait wanted to start zelbraf. We got meds in mail and was ready to start. I began noticing changes thing were shrinkin and some disappeared. Some were size of thumb now are size of peas. Went to Dr. Today he says ippi is. Kicking in and we don’t have to start zelobraf yet.
God has blessed us and we give him the praise.

I agree Jerry. David's onc didn't think that he had time to start IPI, so he did carbo/taxol to reduce the tumor burden, then hopefully he can start IPI.
I am so very glad for your husband's good scan results. Hopefully IPI will continue to shrink the tumors, and he can join the NED ranks!
