Desmoplastic melanoma in Sweden in 2009–2022: A population‐based registry study demonstrating distinctive tumour characteristics, incidence and survival trends

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
The incidence of desmoplastic melanoma (DM) in Sweden remains stable, unlike rising cutaneous melanoma rates. Despite advanced tumour features, DM patients have better survival outcomes. However, recent survival improvements are lacking, potentially due to limited treatment options compared to other melanoma subtypes.

Switching PD‐1 to BRAF + MEK inhibition improves recurrence‐free survival in patients receiving a second course of adjuvant melanoma therapy

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
66 patients from 22 centers received adjuvant treatment after relapse under or after previous adjuvant therapy with BRAF + MEK or PD‐1. Data highlight a significant benefit when switching from PD‐1 to BRAF + MEK adjuvant therapy compared to a switch from BRAF + MEK to PD‐1 adjuvant regimens.
