        My father just finished up a 4 dose cycle of Ipi with no serious side effects.  He has rash on his trunk that was barely noticeable and caused nothing more than an occassional itch.

            Thanks for the advice Nick.  He is seeing a melanoma specialist at Dana Farber and we do know he's BRAF negative.  We have an appointment this coming Friday to discuss options including the trial that was offered.  I'm trying to find out as much as I possibly can about any and every other options to discuss with his oncologist because as possibly promising as the trial could be, it is just very new.  I'll definitely be inquiring about the IL-2 and TIL, thank you!
