Five-Year Outcomes with Dabrafenib plus Trametinib in Metastatic Melanoma
In long-term follow-up of more than 500 patients with melanoma containing a BRAF V600E or V600K mutation, a combination of dabrafenib plus trametinib was associated with progression-free survival in 19% of the patients and overall survival in 34% at 5 years. A complete response to dabrafenib plus tr...

BRAF
V600E or V600K mutation, a combination of dabrafenib plus trametinib was associated with progression-free survival in 19% of the patients and overall survival in 34% at 5 years. A complete response to dabrafenib plus trametinib was the strongest predictor of long-term survival. |
