The addition of PD-1/PD-L1 axis blockade to BRAF and MEK inhibition for advanced melanoma patients harboring BRAF mutations: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Objectives: Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) and targeted-therapies (TT) have become standard options for BRAF-V600 metastatic melanomas (MM). Recently, randomized trials (RCT) addressed the efficacy of combined approaches, with conflicting results. We sought to evaluate efficacy and safety of fir...

Zusammenfassung: | Objectives: Immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) and targeted-therapies (TT) have become standard options for BRAF-V600 metastatic melanomas (MM). Recently, randomized trials (RCT) addressed the efficacy of combined approaches, with conflicting results. We sought to evaluate efficacy and safety of first-line combination ICI and BRAF/MEK inhibitors (triplets) versus BRAF/MEKi (doublets). Methods: We performed a systematic review and metaanalysis of RCT comparing triplet versus doublet published in MEDLINE and EMBASE from 2016-September/2020. We obtained pooled effect estimates through random-effects model assuming p |
