        Greg,  I just finished the CDX1401-301 and Poly/ICNC trial that lasted 4 months.  At the end, I got my CT scan and then the PET scan.  4 lymph nodes are macro and the Oncology team agrees to leave them in for now, as I start on the yervoy/opdivo on December 3rd.   3 hours of IV every 3 weeks for 12 weeks.  Best case scenario would be for the lymph nodes that are macro to reduce in size and/or dissappear (cancer cells gone from nodes) and I wouldn't require surgery.  I won't contemplate the next step until this one is complete and have a Feb/Mar PET scan.   All of my treatment is being done at main campus of the Cleveland Clinic.   I feel I have the Best of the best treating me.   Dr Ernstoff and Surgical Oncologist, Dr. Gastman (and the rest of the team).  Thanks
