PD-L1 blockade in combination with inhibition of MAPK oncogenic signaling in patients with advanced melanoma

Immune checkpoints inhibitors or MAPK inhibitors are currently used as standard of care therapies for patients with advanced melanoma. Here the authors report a phase 1 clinical trial testing the anti-PD-L1 antibody durvalumab in combination with the BRAF inhibitor dafrafenib and the MEK inhibitor t...

Description
Summary:Immune checkpoints inhibitors or MAPK inhibitors are currently used as standard of care therapies for patients with advanced melanoma. Here the authors report a phase 1 clinical trial testing the anti-PD-L1 antibody durvalumab in combination with the BRAF inhibitor dafrafenib and the MEK inhibitor trametinib in patients with BRAFV600-mutant melanoma.
