Purpose: Mitogen-activating protein kinase inhibitors (MAPKis) are largely used in V600E/K BRAF–mutated metastatic melanomas, but data regarding effectiveness of targeted therapy in patients with rare BRAF mutations and molecular description of these infrequent mutations are scarce. Patients and methods: A multicenter study was conducted on...

Background: Clinical outcomes of advanced melanoma of unknown primary (MUP) in the era of novel therapies have been scarcely studied.Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of systemic treatments in patients with advanced MUP compared to patients with stage-matched melanoma of known cutaneous primary (cMKP).Methods: Based on the...

Background: Late-onset adverse events (AEs) of anti-programmed cell death 1 (anti-PD1) antibodies have not been systematically described.Objectives: The purpose was to evaluate late-onset AEs in melanoma patients treated with anti-PD1 administered for at least 2 years in a real-life setting.Methods: Patients were screened from MelBase, a French...

BackgroundMBD4 mutations have been reported in uveal melanomas, acute myeloid leukemias, colorectal adenocarcinomas, gliomas, and spiradenocarcinomas and cause a hypermutated phenotype. Although metastatic uveal melanomas (mUM) are usually resistant to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), the first reported MBD4-mutated (MBD4m) patient responded...
