Has anybody been on chemo drugs for melanoma brain mets? Curiously any success in this realm?

The only drug I know of that was being prescribed for brain mets was temodar. I haven’t seen much scientific evidence to prove it is effective. Radiation seems the best method to get rid of brain mets. Did you watch our webinar on that? It is quite excellent: http://melanomainternational.org/webinar/2012/01/radiation-treatment-in-brain-metastases/#.UgoaG_XD_wo
