How to treat late-stage melanoma

Many melanoma patients lose confidence in their condition’s improvement in the late stages. In fact, melanoma in the late stages is not incurable.

Everyone knows that traditional surgical treatment achieves the purpose of eliminating tumor cells by removing tumor cells from the cancer patient's body through surgery. It can quickly remove tumor cells and is effective quickly. However, due to the limitations of surgical treatment itself, it often leads to residual cancer cells in the patient's body, which can cause the spread and metastasis of cancer cells and lead to cancer recurrence. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy can reduce the tumor cell load locally or systemically and are effective quickly, but it cannot completely eradicate tumor cells. It has great systemic toxic side effects and is very likely to produce side effects such as nausea and vomiting, causing damage to the body's immune function, seriously undermining the patient's confidence in fighting cancer, and causing a heavy blow to the physical and mental health of cancer patients.

For patients who have undergone tumor surgery, biological therapy can remove micro-metastases, reduce the spread and recurrence of tumors, and improve the patient's own anti-tumor immunity; for patients who have undergone radiotherapy and chemotherapy, it can timely increase the body's immune function. Especially for patients with advanced tumors who cannot undergo surgery or are intolerant to chemotherapy, it can play a positive role in improving the quality of life and prolonging life.

Therefore, treatment should be sought as soon as possible after the disease is discovered, and even in the late stages, patients should actively cooperate with the treatment. Treatment of late-stage melanoma can also help patients recover their health.
