Paolo A. Ascierto, MD, National Tumour Institutue “Fondazione G. Pascale,” Unit of Melanoma, Naples, Italy, discusses the sequencing of targeted therapies for patients with melanoma.
There are several clinical trials investigating the sequencing of targeted therapies, explains Ascierto. There is a particular trial looking at the sequencing of the encorafenib and binimetinib combination, nivolumab (Opdivo) and ipilimumab (Yeroy) combination, and a third arm of immunotherapy in between targeted therapy agents.

The IL-12–expressing self-replicating mRNA STX-001 showed a favorable therapeutic window at 100 µg, with regression in both injected and non-injected lesions.

Most of the survival time accrued with RP1 plus nivolumab in the IGNYTE trial was spent in good health among patients with advanced melanoma after anti–PD-1 therapy.

VET3-TGI produced responses in injected and non-injected lesions without dose-limiting toxicities in the phase 1/1b STEALTH-001 trial.

EVX-01 plus pembrolizumab generated sustained neoantigen-specific T-cell responses in advanced melanoma.

Rocbrutinib plus chemoimmunotherapy led to complete responses in patients with untreated B-cell lymphomas.

Many patients with BRAF-altered pediatric low-grade glioma stayed off therapy after planned tovorafenib cessation in the 4-year FIREFLY-1 update.
