Abstract:Metastatic skin cutaneous melanomas that contain wild-typeBRAFalleles typically possess an activating mutation in aRASallele or a loss-of-function mutation in anNF1allele ("BRAF-WT&RAS/NF1-mutant melanomas"). Nonetheless, these tumors remain a significant clinical challenge; they are resistant to MEK and BRAF inhibitors, their response to immune checkpoint inhibitors is less robust than the response ofBRAFmutant melanomas to these agents, and additional validated targets for therapeutic intervention have y… Show more
