100% Cancer Remission Achieved in ALL Patients in Groundbreaking Study

Small group, but wow!!!!! “A total of 12 patients have completed treatment with dostarlimab and have undergone at least 6 months of follow-up. All 12 patients (100%; 95% confidence interval) had a clinical complete response, with no evidence of tumor on magnetic resonance imaging … and no cases of progression or recurrence had been reported during follow-up (range, 6 to 25 months after treatment). No adverse events of grade 3 or higher have been reported.”

Remember, remission is limited by time frame.

Is this a treatment where it kick starts the body's own immune response...
EDGEMAN • 04/05/24 02:24 PM ET
Yes. It only works on a very small % of tumors where they have an MMR
