Hi my husband was diagnosed with secondary lung cancer. Doctors asked for immunotherapy. Should we consult for a second opinion or is it fine to go with immunotherapy?

hi 
generally for lung cancer 
first we do targeted mutation study 
then decide for targeted therapy or immunotherapy 
but if it is 2nd cancer we need to see in details 
better to consult medical oncologist

You need to provide more details to oncologist like biopsy report, scan reports to decide on the stage and line of treatment.

It looks like the patient has metastatic lung cancer. There is no information about previous treatment. I would like to know about the details of treatment given so far and histopathology report. We usually give immunotherapy if the tumor is PDL-1 positive.

Please consult Medical Oncologist so that he can advice you properly with a protocol. In recent times immunotherapy works best for lung cancer.
