Title:

Excerpt:
The purpose of the current retrospective analysis was to evaluate whether the mutational signature of metastatic melanoma had an impact on ICI treatment outcomes such as progression-free and overall survival....The percentage of patients who achieved CR as the BORR after initial ICI treatment was 45.5% for the BRAF V600 mutation subset, 38.5% for NRAS mutant patients, 37.5% for NF1 mutant patients, and 55.6% for triple negative patients (p > 0.05 via chi-square test). No patients with a BRAF fusion or gene rearrangement responded to ICI or 2nd line PD-1 antibody plus targeted therapy treatment (BORR of 0%)....
