Utility of BRAF V600E Mutation-Specific Immunohistochemistry in DetectingBRAFV600E-Mutated Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors [PDF]
As patients with BRAF V600E mutation respond to BRAF inhibitors, it is important to identify these mutations to stratify patients for the appropriate therapy. In this study, we evaluated the utility of a BRAF V600E allele-specific antibody in gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs).BRAF V600E mutation-specific immunohistochemistry (negative, weak, or ...

Outcomes of BRAF V600E Pediatric Gliomas Treated With Targeted BRAF Inhibition
PURPOSE Children with pediatric gliomas harboring a BRAF V600E mutation have poor outcomes with current chemoradiotherapy strategies. Our aim was to study the role of targeted BRAF inhibition in these tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS We collected clinical, imaging, molecular, and outcome information from patients with BRAF V600E–mutated glioma treated with

High frequency of KRAS and EGFR mutation profiles in BRAF-negative thyroid carcinomas in Indonesia
Objective Thyroid cancer incidence has steadily increased in Indonesia. However, data on Kirsten rat sarcoma virus (KRAS) and EGFR mutations in thyroid cancer in Indonesia remain unavailable, except for BRAF-V600E, the most common BRAF gene mutation ...

Acquired and intrinsic BRAF inhibitor resistance in BRAF V600E mutant melanoma [PDF]
The discovery of activating BRAF V600E mutations in 50% of all cutaneous melanomas has revolutionized the understanding of melanoma biology and provided new strategies for the therapeutic management of this deadly disease. Highly potent small molecule inhibitors of BRAF are now showing great promise as a novel therapeutic strategy for melanomas ...

DHODH modulates transcriptional elongation in the neural crest and melanoma [PDF]
Melanoma is a tumour of transformed melanocytes, which are originally derived from the embryonic neural crest. It is unknown to what extent the programs that regulate neural crest development interact with mutations in the BRAF oncogene, which is the ...
