Cutaneous side-effects during therapy of melanoma by vemurafenib
Introduction. Vemurafenib is a selective inhibitor of serine-threonine kinase BRAF used in the treatment of advanced melanoma with BRAF mutation. Effectiveness of this drug was confirmed in a large clinical trial, which led to the increase of its ...

Mechanisms of vemurafenib-induced anti-tumor effects in ATC FRO cells
Background: Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma (ATC) is a rare and deadly malignant tumor in humans. It is prone to developing resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Molecular targeted therapy offers a novel way to treat ATC. The BRAF mutation is closely

Next-generation sequencing of prostate cancer: genomic and pathway alterations, potential actionability patterns, and relative rate of use of clinical-grade testing. [PDF]
Despite being one of the most common cancers, treatment options for prostate cancer are limited. Novel approaches for advanced disease are needed. We evaluated the relative rate of use of clinical-grade next generation sequencing (NGS) in prostate cancer,

Novel mechanisms of resistance to vemurafenib in melanoma – V600E B-Raf reversion and switching VEGF-A splice isoform expression [PDF]
Targeting activating mutations in the proto-oncogene B-Raf, in melanoma, has led to increases in progression free survival. Treatment with vemurafenib, which inhibits the most common activating-mutated form of B-Raf (B-RafV600E), eventually results in ...
