Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Approximately 50% of human cutaneous melanomas carry activating mutations in the serine/threonine protein kinase BRAF. BRAF inhibitors (BRAFi) selectively target the oncogenic BRAF V600E/K and are effective in approximately 80% of patients carrying the mutation. However, resistance to BRAFi is common and emerges within a median time of 6-7 months of treatment and is prolonged to 11 months when...
