I'm so sorry to learn about your battle with this cancer, @minnniceguy. I thought you might be interested in reading this journal article about the successful use of BRAF inhibitors in oncology: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5977279/

Here's some information about three main BRAF inhibitors Vemurafenib, Dabrafenib, Sorafenib:

https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements/sorafenib-oral-route/description/drg-20068145

I'd also like to introduce you to @audrapopp @meg4434 @ecdhope @daniellemarie, who've shared their or their loved ones experiences with these targeted therapies. @minnniceguy, could you share more about the side effects that concern you the most?
