An ultraviolet-radiation-independent pathway to melanoma carcinogenesis in the red hair/fair skin background

TL;DR: The data suggest that the pheomelanin pigment pathway produces ultraviolet-radiation-independent carcinogenic contributions to melanomagenesis by a mechanism of oxidative damage, which suggests protection from ultraviolet radiation remains important, and additional strategies may be required for optimal melanoma prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intratumoral Activity of the CXCR3 Chemokine System Is Required for the Efficacy of Anti-PD-1 Therapy.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the CXCR3 chemokines system is a biomarker for sensitivity to PD-1 blockade and that augmenting the intratumoral function of this chemokine system could improve clinical outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The melanoma revolution: from UV carcinogenesis to a new era in therapeutics.

TL;DR: An overview of recent developments in understanding of melanoma risk factors, genomics, and molecular pathogenesis and how these insights have driven advances in melanoma treatment is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Response to BRAF Inhibition in Melanoma Is Enhanced When Combined with Immune Checkpoint Blockade

TL;DR: Combining BRAF and PD-1/PD-L1 blockade slowed tumor growth and prolonged survival in a melanoma mouse model, with increased number and activity of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes similar to that in a human melanoma patient treated with this regimen.
