"I have been getting Avelumab infusions for 4 years. The drug has minimal side effects, primarily some itching periodically. I am in a clinical trial with a subsidiary of Merck in Germany. Just entered a rollover clinical trial where the observation period of 2 hours is being eliminated as I have shown no adverse effects in 4 years. My overall strength is good. Play golf 2 times a week and with solid energy to play as well as ever. So far, very happy with the therapy from Avelumab infusions. Most tumors have decreased or disappeared. However, one in my stomach remains pretty constant but does not weaken me in any way. Hopefully, it will eventually go away. Would recommend this treatment."
