“Living with Lynch” - Four Women Share Their Cancer Previvor Journey

[@arnolddejong5707]

I have Lynch Syndrom. I got a Lynch tumor in my bile ducts. The surgeon tried to take the tumor out but unfortunately the cancer grew back. I then got immunotherapy, Nivolumab and within three months the cancer was gone. Immunotherapy, check point inhibitors often work exceptionally well on Lynch tumor if given before the patient had radiotherapy or chemotherapy. It is important to give immunotherapy to Lynch patients as a first line treatment. It then can be curative and not just palliative.
