Adjuvant Pembrolizumab versus Placebo in Resected Stage III Melanoma.
BACKGROUND:The programmed death 1 (PD-1) inhibitor pembrolizumab has been found to prolong progression-free and overall survival among patients with advanced melanoma. We conducted a phase 3 double-blind trial to evaluate ...
Dabrafenib plus trametinib versus dabrafenib monotherapy in patients with metastatic BRAF V600E/K-mutant melanoma: long-term survival and safety analysis of a phase 3 study.
(2017-07)
Background Previous analysis of COMBI-d (NCT01584648) demonstrated improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) with combination dabrafenib and trametinib versus dabrafenib monotherapy in BRAF ...
Efficacy and toxicity of treatment with the anti-CTLA-4 antibody ipilimumab in patients with metastatic melanoma after prior anti-PD-1 therapy.
(2016-05)
Background Recent phase III clinical trials have established the superiority of the anti-PD-1 antibodies pembrolizumab and nivolumab over the anti-CTLA-4 antibody ipilimumab in the first-line treatment of patients with ...
Treatment-Free Survival: A Novel Outcome Measure of the Effects of Immune Checkpoint Inhibition-A Pooled Analysis of Patients With Advanced Melanoma.
(AMER SOC CLINICAL ONCOLOGY, 2019-12-10)
PURPOSE: Outcome measures that comprehensively capture attributes of immuno-oncology agents, including prolonged treatment-free time and persistent treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), are needed to complement ...
Escape from nonsense-mediated decay associates with anti-tumor immunogenicity.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-07-30)
Frameshift insertion/deletions (fs-indels) are an infrequent but highly immunogenic mutation subtype. Although fs-indels are degraded through the nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) pathway, we hypothesise that some fs-indels ...
Phase 1 study of the pan-RAF inhibitor tovorafenib in patients with advanced solid tumors followed by dose expansion in patients with metastatic melanoma.
(SPRINGER, 2023-07-01)
PURPOSE: Genomic alterations of BRAF and NRAS are oncogenic drivers in malignant melanoma and other solid tumors. Tovorafenib is an investigational, oral, selective, CNS-penetrant, small molecule, type II pan‑RAF inhibitor. ...
TMB and Inflammatory Gene Expression Associated with Clinical Outcomes following Immunotherapy in Advanced Melanoma.
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2021-10-01)
Outcomes for patients with melanoma have improved over the past decade as a result of the development and FDA approval of immunotherapies targeting cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4), programmed death-1 (PD-1), and ...
Bempegaldesleukin Plus Nivolumab in Untreated Advanced Melanoma: The Open-Label, Phase III PIVOT IO 001 Trial Results.
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2023-10-20)
PURPOSE: Despite marked advances in the treatment of unresectable or metastatic melanoma, the need for novel therapies remains. Bempegaldesleukin (BEMPEG), a pegylated interleukin-2 (IL-2) cytokine prodrug, demonstrated ...
Rechallenge with BRAF-directed treatment in metastatic melanoma: A multi-institutional retrospective study.
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018-03-01)
BACKGROUND: Most metastatic melanoma patients treated with BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi) ± MEK inhibitors (MEKi) eventually progress on treatment. Along with acquired resistance due to genetic changes, epigenetic mechanisms that ...
Systematic literature review for the association of biomarkers with efficacy of anti-PD-1 inhibitors in advanced melanoma.
(FUTURE MEDICINE LTD, 2021-03-30)
Aim: Summarize the literature assessing biomarkers in predicting efficacy of anti-PD-1 therapy for patients with high-risk unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Materials & methods: Relevant studies were identified via a ...
