I am trying to get my father the Bay 43-9006 pills that are in clinical trials. My father was in a trial for 7 months and stable with melanoma, but then it went to his brain. He has had gamma knife and whole brain radiation and his brain is clear now. The problem is he was taken out of the trial and the melanoma has now spread throughout his body. The Bay 43-9006 did work except for his brain. I feel it is his only hope for survival. We cannot get back in the trials. If anyone has any Bay 43-9006 pills that are left over or not being taken anymore, I would buy them from you. Time is running out on our family. Please email me at spl1957@hotmail.com. God bless you.

Dear Sean,

Sorry to hear about your story. You can always ask the doctors running these trials to prescribe an investigational drug on a compassional basis. This is the way that people do when there's nothing left and maybe a drug may work.

best regards,
Leo
