Immunotherapy is not chemo. It has been around for almost 30 years. My brother had stage 4 melanoma on his head and neck. After drastic surgery to remove it and a ton of lymph nodes he was given a short time to live. His doctor started him on Yervoy (immunotheray) and then chemo pills. Neither worked. He was then given Keytruda (immunotherapy) and it put him into remission. It has not re-occurred in 6+ years. Side effects were minimal. I think Keytruda was developed to treat lung cancer but his doc gave it to him anyway since his situation was so grave. I would encourage your friend to explore the Tippens cancer protocol mentioned in this article.

I believe they are also lumping the new mRNA cancer therapy as immunotherapy (which it technically IS) so BE CAREFUL.

Next thing you know MRNA be classified as "natural flavors."
