Melanoma Treatment

Melanoma is a skin cancer originating from melanocytes, which can occur at any age but is most common in middle-aged and elderly individuals. The disease progresses rapidly and easily metastasizes. Without timely treatment, patient prognosis is poor and survival rates decline significantly. Timely and scientific treatment is crucial for slowing disease progression and improving quality of life.

Emerging Treatment Methods

Immune Reconstruction Cell Therapy

Immune reconstruction cell therapy activates the patient’s own immune system, enhancing the body’s ability to recognize and attack melanoma cells, and significantly improving treatment outcomes.

① Activates T cells and natural killer cells, strengthening anti-tumor immune responses

② Regulates the tumor microenvironment, inhibiting immune evasion of tumor cells

③ Prolongs durability of treatment effects and reduces recurrence risk

In actual treatment, melanoma patients undergoing surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy often face immune dysfunction, increased infection risks, and slow recovery. To help patients better endure treatment, enhance tolerance, and improve survival quality, phased immune reconstruction programs must be scientifically tailored to different cycles.

● Short-term plan: Rapidly enhance immunity through immune cell reinfusion to strengthen anti-tumor effects.

● Mid-term plan: Reduce side effects of conventional treatments, promote recovery, and ensure completion of standardized therapy.

● Long-term plan: Comprehensive improvement of immunity through immune cell reconstruction, gut immunity restoration, elemental immunity rebuilding, and immune nutrition support, thereby improving quality of life and extending survival.

Conventional Treatment Methods

1. Surgical Excision

Surgery is the primary treatment for early-stage melanoma, involving removal of the tumor along with a margin of surrounding healthy tissue to minimize recurrence risk. The surgical range is determined by tumor thickness and location to ensure complete removal.

2. Targeted Therapy

For melanoma with common BRAF gene mutations, targeted drugs can precisely kill cancer cells and significantly slow disease progression. This therapy is mainly used for advanced or metastatic melanoma patients and has relatively controllable side effects.

3. Radiotherapy

Radiotherapy can be used for localized melanoma treatment, particularly after surgery to eliminate residual cancer cells or prevent local recurrence.

Conclusion

Melanoma treatment methods are diverse, and combining immune reconstruction cell therapy can significantly improve outcomes. Experts at United Life International Medical Center emphasize that early detection and scientific treatment are key to improving patient survival and quality of life. Patients should choose the most appropriate comprehensive treatment plan based on their specific condition.
