How do I prepare for stage 4 pancreatic cancer treatment and clinical trials?

Preparing for treatment and potential clinical trials involves several important steps that many in this community have navigated. It's wonderful that you're exploring all available options, including the promising trials at MD Anderson, while maintaining such a strong support system with your husband. Many find it helpful to prepare questions for their medical team about trial protocols, side effect management, and what to expect during treatment cycles, while also connecting with others here who have experience with similar treatment paths.

I’m in a similar situation. May I ask what these new medications are? Or what type of trials? I would like to see if there are more options I could speak to my oncologist about. Stay strong! Le’s beat this together!!!

Hi Sandi, Pancreatic cancer treatments have come a long way.. MD Andersen is a great place to be at. I’m sure the treatments will work fine on you! Please keep us posted.

Sandi, please try to include the following in your diet and of course, ask your doctor too. But this seems to be working for me. Papaya Purple potatoes Blueberries Broccoli Green tea They seem to be the super foods.

Good and hope you are too 😊
