Hi gingergine,
I had a Stem Cell Transplant at St.Barts Hospital,London in November. I recently had my 100 day post transplant consultation, where I was told I had achieved a very good partial response.
I was then informed that I could apply for the Iberdomide trial – they call it ‘Excaliber phase III’ at Barts.
I have to tell them if I want to take part within the next couple of weeks. My thinking is that I probably will sign up for it because 1) in the phase I & II trials already done, it appears that Iberdomide gives longer remission & less nasty side effects than Lenalidomide; and 2) you will get much more closely monitored on the trial compared to not being on it.
I did also contemplate not having any ‘maintenance’ treatment & just doing ‘watch & wait’ – as I have read about people keeping their cancer at bay with healthy diet and exercise only, but I don’t think I can trust my body to do that without more pills!
