Data from Maximizing the Efficacy of MAPK-Targeted Treatment in <i>PTEN</i><sup>LOF</sup><i>/BRAF</i><sup>MUT</sup> Melanoma through PI3K and IGF1R Inhibition
Abstract:<div>Abstract<p>The introduction of MAPK pathway inhibitors paved the road for significant advancements in the treatment of <i>BRAF</i>-mutant (<i>BRAF</i><sup>MUT</sup>) melanoma. However, even BRAF/MEK inhibitor combination therapy has failed to offer a curative treatment option, most likely because these pathways constitute a codependent signaling network. Concomitant <i>PTEN</i> loss of function (<i>PTEN</i><sup>LOF</sup>) … Show more
