        ​at this time, Yervoy is the only FDA treatment other than interferon for adjuvant therapy. And the other I don't understand is the amount is 10mg/kg of body weight where for mestatic it is 3mg/kg. Plan to again discuss this before treatment starts. At present Ketruda is only apprved for mestatic non resectable melanoma, unles you are involved in a clinical trial.
