The FDA has approved peginterferon alfa-2b (Sylatron – Merck) for adjuvant treatment of node-positive melanoma after surgical resection. Pegylated interferon has a longer duration of action than interferon alfa-2b (Intron A), which is also FDA-approved for adjuvant treatment of malignant melanoma after surgery, and can be given once a week, compared to 3-5 times a week for standard interferon.
