        Hi Jerry

         

        my mom has recently been diagnosed and had surgery for Mucusal Melonoma if the parasinus.  We are just at the beginning of this journey.  I was reading about your treatment and wondered if you knew if it was happening in Canada as well?   We have our first appointment with the oncologist coming up and a post op meeting with the surgeon with radiation starting shortly.  Where do we start with getting tested for the drug you are taking?

              Hi Jerry

              so you have been successful in shrinking tumors with your treatment?  Do they have this trial in Canada?  What test do you take to see if you will respond to the treatment?
