How effective is immunotherapy for endometrial cancer at 66?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query and understand your concerns.

I hope you are doing well, and I wish your mother a speedy recovery. I understand and appreciate the fear and anxiety you may have regarding her condition. At the age of 66, we typically do not prefer chemotherapy; instead, we recommend targeted therapy or immunotherapy.

Immunotherapy has fewer side effects compared to chemotherapy and often provides a better quality of life for patients. Chemotherapy's side effects can make it difficult for elderly patients to perform daily activities, leading to a less favorable overall experience.

If her general condition improves, we can continue with immunotherapy, as it usually does not cause significant harm. One consideration with immunotherapy is its cost. However, we can explore clinical trials and collaborate with a pharmaceutical company that may provide the medication at no cost and offer financial assistance if needed.

I encourage you to provide her with full emotional support and ensure she receives adequate nutrition, as this can significantly support her recovery. I hope this information is clear. If you have any questions at any time, please do not hesitate to ask.

I hope I have addressed all of your queries and concerns. Please feel free to follow up whenever needed.

Thank you.
