        Artie, I wanted to let you know that your post really provided me with some hope for my husband who is Stage IV Metastatic Melanoma currently on Tafinlar (he was on both Tafinlar and Mekinst, but had to stop Mekinst due to pneumonia-like symptoms). He may end up being treated with Keytruda in the future. I'm very grateful that new drugs are being developed and approved all the time and hold out hope that he will have success. Thank you for your positivity!
