Approximately 7 % of melanomas have a BRAF mutation beyond codon 600. These mutations can be BRAF activating without being addressable by an approved BRAF inhibitor. The case of a patient with fulminant metastatic melanoma and a BRAF(L597Q) mutation is presented. It is demonstrated that the tumor shows an excellent response to the MEK inhibitor trametinib. This is an example for possible targeted therapy in a non-V600-mutated melanoma resulting in a 17-month overall survival.
大约7%的黑色素瘤存在密码子600以外的BRAF突变。这些突变可能是BRAF激活突变,无法被已获批的BRAF抑制剂所作用。本文介绍了一名患有暴发性转移性黑色素瘤且存在BRAF(L597Q)突变的患者病例。结果表明,该肿瘤对MEK抑制剂曲美替尼表现出极佳的反应。这是一个针对非V600突变型黑色素瘤进行可能的靶向治疗并实现17个月总生存期的实例。
