Proteomics-based insights into mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitor resistance of cerebral melanoma metastases

Abstract Background MAP kinase inhibitor (MAPKi) therapy for BRAF mutated melanoma is characterized by high response rates but development of drug resistance within a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 9–12 months. Understanding mechanisms of resistance and identifying effective therapeutic a...
