The Advantages of Treating Metastatic Melanoma with Immunotherapy Instead of Chemotherapy or Excision
Description
The treatment of melanoma is dependent on what stage the cancer has developed into. Metastatic melanoma is commonly treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Unfortunately, not all patients will respond to the treatment as expected. This paper develops important background knowledge on melanoma, how it is treated for each stage, and immune checkpoint inhibitors.
