This study provides further evidence for an effective use of T-VEC in old and oldest-old patients. The low rate of adverse events seems to be favorable compared to other systemic melanoma therapies. Furthermore, duration of treatment was short and therapy costs were lower than would have been expected from clinical trial data. Altogether, these data encourage the use of T-VEC in this special patient cohort.
