Carol was looking for treatment options for her stage IV glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer. www.cancerresearch.org/june
She found a Cancer Research Institute-funded immunotherapy clinical trial testing a combination of treatments--the anti-PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor durvalumab and the anti-angiogenic drug bevacizumab (Avastin)--and today is able to get on living her life.
This video is presented as part of the Cancer Research Institute 5th Annual Cancer Immunotherapy Month awareness campaign this June 2017. Learn more about cancer immunotherapy and its potential to save more lives at www.cancerresearch.org/june #CIM17

Too sad. My sister was diagnosed in June 2019. I apologize to all of those who inquired about my sister. I was not notified until today that I had a message waiting. Sadly, my sister passed away after on August 19, 2020, after only 13 months :-(

I have gioblastoma. Diagnosed 062020. We are progressing with LOCAL treatment options. ORAL CHEMO AND OPTUNE device. I may shortly try and ascertain what more permanent treatments for the disease may be available. My providers are telling me and i quote "its treatable, but not curable. I see a LOT of information in immunotherapies that can provide a more long term fix--

Is this that one trial about using the herpie virus to attack the tumo r? My ex sister in law was diagnosed and she is deteroiting very quickly, if anyone can send me somewhere for any clinical trials, she is only 42 years old, its on her brain stem, affecting her swallowing and talking, they said inoperable, looking for hope. I love her dearly

I worked on that trial at BMS. Glad it worked for her

Does anyone know how Carol is doing and if she is recurrence free? I know about this trial and others like it, combining PD-l1 inhibitors, and am very interested in the outcomes, and also in reading long-term progress reports for case histories like this.

My fiancé has GBM. He had 1st craniotomy end of October. That removed whole tumour. Started Radiation/Chemo and now he has a 2nd tumour the size of an avocado there was no sign of in first surgery. He’s undergoing a second UV contrast assisted surgery in the next few days. But there’s no clinical trials available. No Optune. No immunotherapy. No gene therapy. I feel so powerless to help or try offer comfort…what do you do when there’s no hope
