Summary

Isolated limb perfusion (ILP) with tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and melphalan was carried out in 21 patients with regionally metastatic malignant melanoma of the limbs. The observed response rate was 65% complete and 15% partial remission. These results warrant further investigation of ILP with TNF and melphalan vs ILP with melphalan alone in a prospective randomised multicenter trial.
