MMP-9 as a Candidate Marker of Response to BRAF Inhibitors in Melanoma Patients With BRAFV600E Mutation Detected in Circulating-Free DNA
14 Aug 2018
Abstract excerpt
The BRAFV600E mutation is associated with melanoma development and its detection in circulating-free DNA cannot be observed in all melanoma patients harboring this mutation in tumor specimens. Beside the circulating-free DNA BRAFV600E mutation, other markers of therapeutic response should be identified. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) could be one of them as its role as indicator of invasiveness in melanoma...
