    I would start with a single agent anti PD 1. Seeing his advanced age, he is expected to respond much better than younger patients (more than half achieve CRs. ref: Ben-Betzalel et al EJC 2018). Otherwise, I'd start an inverse doses combination (CM 511) - that has similar response rates but is much less toxic.
