@ 56pan,
The targeted therapy treatment is Tafinlar (dabrafenib) & Mekinist (trametinib) maker Novartis, I believe. It is in pills form taken at home. Not radiation. Watch the dosage as the original dosage placed my wife in the hospital.

@jolo24 What mutation(s) does this targeted therapy go after?
Is this a clinical trial?

Hoping there is something else out there besides the Rev Med drugs.
