Overview
- The 15-year-old left Uniklinik Würzburg after tolerating the initial nuclear-medicine treatment, her mother reported on Instagram.
- Doctors administered the so-called Imaza therapy, a radiolabeled drug intended to target tumor cells, and Delani was temporarily isolated to limit radiation exposure to others.
- According to the family, the lung metastases showed uptake of the medication, and they hope to see clinical effects in the coming weeks.
- The same therapy is scheduled to be repeated in about six weeks in Würzburg.
- Earlier this year, an adrenal tumor was removed but metastases were found in both lungs, and after a period of palliative classification the family pursued additional treatment options.
