Hi,

I am really very sorry to hear about your father. The treatment of advanced mesothelioma is mostly palliative ie to reduce the distressing symptoms. Generally surgery and radiotherapy is given to reduce the symptoms. I would also suggest you to find out if in clinical trials for mesothelioma are going on in your area.Clinical trials for mesothelioma are utilizing human gene therapy. It will atleast offer him a treatment option.
