Additionally, the first-line HEPZATO KIT demonstrated a median Progression-Free Survival of 15.4 months, again surpassing both immunotherapy and alternative treatments.Jonathan Zager, chief academic officer and director of Regional Therapies at Moffitt Cancer Center, emphasized that these findings highlight the critical role of melphalan/HDS in treating liver-dominant metastatic uveal melanoma.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company – www.instaforex.com
