Hello everyone,
My name is Youri and I live in the Netherlands.
My father has been sick for a long time and after succesfull radiation therapies, my fathers melanoma's were stable for over a year. In the pas couple of months the melanoma's started growing again. Radiation and chemo didn't work this time.
We heard about a new treatment, called R05185426, which possibly would lead to stabilisation, or even shrinking of the melanoma's. In the Netherlands this treatment is still in the experimental stage. An entrance requirement is that the melanoma's above the shoulders are stable. Unfortunately my fathers aren't. Yesterday the doctor told us that my father is excluded from the new treatment.
My question is, whether in other countries than the Netherland, the treatment can be performed or the new chemo can be optained on the free market.
We are almost out of hope so if you know anything, please reply, and help us.
With kind regards,
Youri Hasper and family
