Schuchter, MD discusses the treatment risks and side effects of a medication called ipilimumab, or Yervoy, for the treatment of later-stage melanoma. In March 2011, the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, approved a medication called ipilimumab, or Yervoy, for the treatment of later-stage melanoma. It is the first drug that has been shown to extend survival for such patients. However, there can be serious, even life-threatening, side effects based upon the body’s reaction to this drug, called an autoimmune response. Because of the unique and serious health risks associated with the use of ipilimumab, FDA has worked with the drug’s manufacturer to develop educational materials to help doctors and patients to identify and treat such side effects. 10:22 Cancer.Net cancer, cancer.net, asco, melanoma, ipilimumab, yervoy, side effects no no A recording of the May 18, 2011 teleconference for patient advocates on the news coming out of the 2011 ASCO Annual Meeting. http://www.cancer.net/patient/Multimedia/Podcasts/Files/2011_AM_PA_Teleconference.mp3 457824DC-48C6-4DE9-9DC3-C318199F9C27 Thu, 19 May 2011 10:00:00 -0400 A recording of the May 18, 2011 teleconference for patient advocates on the news coming out of the 2011 ASCO Annual Meeting.
