Abstract excerpt
Mutations within the promoter of gene encoding telomerase reverse transcriptase subunit are frequent in many cancers including melanoma. Previously, the TERT promoter mutations were shown to associate with markers of poor outcome and reduced survival in patients with primary melanoma. In this study, we investigated the impact of the subtypes of TERT mutations on disease-free and melanoma-specific survival in 287...
