NICE has recommended a new first-line NHS treatment for locally advanced cervical cancer.
Pembrolizumab with chemoradiotherapy has the potential to improve survival and increase the chance of cure for people: https://t.co/ZG3H45E22O
"The greatest gift teplizumab has given us is time. As a mother, every month and every year that Dima can continue being a child without insulin injections, carb counting and the daily burden of T1D feels incredibly precious."
Elena's son Dima was nine when he received a positive result for early onset type 1 diabetes (T1D). This was followed by a call from @elsadiabetes about a new immunotherapy called teplizumab that could change everything. After careful consideration and talking to her sister, whose daughter was also diagnosed at seven years old, Elena agreed to taking part in the treatment, "if there was a chance we could delay the need for insulin, I thought it was worth it."
The treatment lasted two weeks, delivered once a day via infusion followed by a few hours of monitoring. After the treatment, Dima returned home and resumed normal life. So far, he remains symptom-free.
Stories like this one is why we do what we do - so people like Elena and her son Dima have more time. Time for childhood to still feel like childhood. Time for parents to adapt to supporting a life-changing and lifelong condition. None of this would be possible without you, our incredible community. 💙
This is only the beginning. We won't stop until we find a cure.
