Alex Trebek announced on Tuesday that he will go back on chemotherapy to treat his stage 4 pancreatic cancer, just weeks after the longtime Jeopardy host said he was nearing remission.
"This past summer, because I was making such good progress, we thought I was finished with chemo," Trebek said in a video message. "That was a bit premature and certainly over-optimistic."
"I began immunotherapy but that didn't go very well at all. My numbers went south, drastically and quickly," he said.

The 5 year survival rate for stage 4 pancreatic cancer is 1%. Basically this is a death sentence. Hope he stops working and spends as much time as he can with his family.
