      Hello 🙂
      My father has been battling stage IV melanoma for several years.
      He was treated with Ipi and most recently the clinical trial drug PD-1.
      He had a very rare side effect on the PD-1 and can no longer take it.
      He has 2 masses on his adrenal glands which grew 1/2 inch since he stopped pd-1 which was about 4 weeks ago.
      He had a total of 5 infusions.
      The adrenal tumors were there with Ipi so he’s pretty stable at this time.
      I hope the Zelboraf will work for my father.
      I would love to hear any feedback from anyone on this drug, side effects, current prognosis!!

      Thanks so much in advance!!!!
