Systemic Therapy for Metastatic Melanoma Treatment:
Metastatic melanoma is a type of skin cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It is a serious and potentially life-threatening condition, as it can be difficult to control and treat once it has spread.
Systemic therapy is the primary treatment for stage IV melanoma, which is cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. Systemic therapies are drugs that circulate throughout the body to treat cancer cells wherever they are. They can be used to treat both clinically detectable and subclinical metastases.
There are several types of systemic therapy that can be used to treat metastatic melanoma, including chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy. Each type works in a different way to attack cancer cells and prevent their growth and spread.
