Do you have any success stories for kras g12A??

[@KRASKickers]

Yes indeed we do! Although KRAS G12A does not have an approved targeted therapy today, some folks really respond well to therapies specific to their situation. It does depend upon stage, diagnosis, type of cancer. Currently there are pan-KRAS trials plus other options available for KRAS in solid tumors. Have you connected with us www.kraskickers.org/

[@KRASKickers]

I wish we could provide simple answers. Some people do respond well, so many factors go into it, overall health, age, specific characteristics of the cancer, previous treatments. What matters is how YOU are doing. Did you get a second opinion? Are you In treatment or evaluating options?
