Gene, thanks for posting ……. really appreciate you sharing the melanoma R&D and studies with us ….. The European study is consistent with what I had read earlier in a mel study originating out of Italy ….. that for some reason, interferon seems to deliver better results when the primary tumor was ulcerated….
On the old BB, now archived, I posted the preliminary findings about 2 years old and, in the ensuing board discussion, some members here provided anecdotal affirmation with regard to their experience (and belief in) in interferon and their continued NED status ……
Again, thanks for posting Gene,

I would strongly encourage you to go to the Siteman Cancer at Washington University in St Louis….. Siteman Center is THE melanoma cancer center of excellence in the Missouri / Iowa / Arkansas and Kentucky regions …. They are one of only 40 or so NCI desigated Comprehensive Cancer Centers in the country and they have a Melanoma specialist clinic as well ….
I am Stage IIA and was treated there …. Dr. Jeffrey Moley is the resident melanoma surgical oncologist on staff and is in a Senior medical management position within Siteman Center as well …. He is a gifted surgeon and an all around good guy ….. They also use the inter-disciplinary approach …. If a met on his face needs to be excised, Moley will have a head and neck surgeon and a plastic surgeon on his team from Day 1….. I credit him with saving my life and giving me the 4 years + NED life extension I've had thus far….
Siteman Center is also in on all of the cutting edge trials for Melanoma…. vaccines, T-Cell, et al …. Dr. Linnette — with whom I've had a consult in case I have a metastatic recurrence — is a very good oncologist and a straight shooter …… He is also networked in with all of the other leading melanoma oncologists in the country …..
If someone has metastatic melanoma and lives in thje St Louis region, the Siteman Cancer Center is the place to go ….. they have seen alot of melanoma and they know what they're doing…
