Abstract excerpt
BRAF plus MEK inhibitor combinations are currently FDA-approved for melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, and anaplastic thyroid cancer. The lack of clinical benefit with BRAF inhibition in BRAF V600-mutated colorectal cancer has prevented its tissue-agnostic drug development. We reviewed the AACR GENIE database for the prevalence of BRAF V600 mutations across tumor types. We reviewed the literature for case...
