The first step to effective treatment is correct diagnosis. From this Israeli doctors start. All the patients are examined in Israel.

At the request of our patients, we also provide a second doctor’s opinion. In this case, you can take advantage of our recommendation, or choose a doctor yourself. Make an appointment you can throw form, chat or telephone.

Guidelines for the primary melanoma evaluation and treatment in 2019
In November 2018, the American Academy of Dermatology published Guidelines for the evaluation and primary cutaneous melanoma treatment.
Israeli oncologists are evaluating and treating primary cutaneous melanoma in accordance with the international standards.
Opdivo (Nivolumab)
Opdivo (Bristol-Myers Squibb) is a medicine prescribed by Israeli doctors for the treatment of sicknesses such as:
• Melanoma – in cases where the disease has spread to other organs and can not be removed surgically, or for the purpose of adjuvant therapy (prevention).
• Metastatic non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCL) – in cases where the disease progressed during or after chemotherapy treatment.
OPDIVO shows 50% longer median overall survival vs Chemotherapy* (9.2 vs 6.0 months) in patients with NSCL, according to the study that included PD-L1 Expressors and Non-Expressors. (http://www.opdivohcp.com/metastatic-nsclc/efficacy/clinical-trial-results)
• Hodgkin’s lymphoma after autologous stem cell transplantation.
Proven in clinical study:
– tumors shrink or disappeared completely in 69% (179 of 258 patients);
– tumors shrink (partial response) in 55% (142 of 258);
– tumors disappeared completely (complete response) in 14% (37 of 258).
The clinical trials are being continued.
Eye melanoma
Eye melanoma (ocular, uveal melanoma, melanoma of conjunctiva, eyelid melanoma) is a cancer that develops from melanocytes, cells that produce melanin pigment which is responsible for the color of the skin and eyes.
New approach of immunotherapy medicines allows our oncologists to increase significantly treatment results and improve quality of life of our patients.
Keytruda – immunotherapy cancer
Keytruda – medicine which completely changes the approach to cancer treatment.
Skin cancer
Skin cancer is an uncontrolled growth of abnormal skin cells with damaged DNA structure. These cells proliferate and form a cancerous tumor.
Melanoma treatment
Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer, but due to many years of persistent work of our leading Institute of Melanoma under the control of prof. Schachter, during last years rate of successful melanoma treatment has dramatically increased in Israel.
When skin cancer is diagnosed and promptly treated in accordance with professor’s recommendations (surgery / immunotherapy / biological therapy / TIL therapy), good results may be achieved even in the progressive stage of the disease.
