Hi, I have just met with my Cancer Consultant ( Kidney ) and we discussed going on the drug call Pembrolizumab for a year.
On the off chance i was wondering if anyone else was on the drug and could you confirm side effects

Hello Drisc1963
We have some information about Pembrolizumab (also known as Keytruda) on our website which you may find helpful.
I'm unsure if there's anyone on the forum currently on this treatment but we do have quite a few posts where Pembrolizumab or Keytruda are mentioned. You can find them by using the forum search function (magnifying glass in the blue bar at the top of the page).
If you want to talk to our nurses about this treatment you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9 am to 5 pm.
Best wishes,

My husband has just started on Pembrollizumab alongside other treatment as part of a trial. He has advanced kidney cancer.
