Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Melanoma mutational burden is high and approximately 50% have oncogenic mutations in BRAF. We sought to evaluate age-related mutational differences in melanoma. METHODS: We analyzed melanoma samples in the Genomics Evidence Neoplasia Information Exchange database. Targetable mutations were identified using the Precision Oncology Knowledge Base (OncoKB). RESULTS: We found 1194 patients...
