Community safety rule.
Share experience and questions. Do not tell another person what treatment to take, stop, combine, or dose. Medical decisions belong with the oncology team.

Thread preview
This thread is for questions to ask doctors, not for telling someone which medicine to take.
Examples: Should we search NRAS-specific trials? Is a melanoma specialty center available? What changes after prior PD-1 failure?
