Disseminated melanoma--is there a new standard therapy?

TL;DR: In white populations, the worldwide incidence of melanoma is higher than in other ethnic groups and the incidence of the disease is higher in women than in men.
Journal ArticleDOI

Melanoma Genetic Testing, Counseling, and Adherence to Skin Cancer Prevention and Detection Behaviors

TL;DR: Feedback of CD KN2A and MC1R genotype among families without known pathogenic CDKN2A mutations does not seem to decrease sun protection behaviors, and disclosure of this information did not have negative effects on prevention.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This study of somatic mutations in melanoma is the last prospectively collected phase III clinical trial population before the era of BRAF-targeted therapy, and a trend toward improved clinical response in patients with NRAS-mutant melanoma treated with CPS was observed, possibly due to the effect of sorafenib on CRAF.
