I have an acquaintance who finished up her TNBC treatments last year with Keytruda after she had chemo. I had TNBC 9 years ago, and Keytruda was not approved yet for this. I'm so thankful to hear that it has been found effective for TNBC! The AC-T chemo is necessary as well. It became a game changer years ago in saving lives!

I Would Like To Talk To Someone That Has Had TNBC And Someone That Might Know About Cutaneous Metastasis. Any Information Would Be Welcome.
