Meningeal melanomatosis following discontinuation of dabrafenib: implications for the maintenance of long-term complete remission.
Grätz V, Lüttmann N, Haase O, Langan EA, Kemmling A, Zillikens D, Terheyden P. Grätz V, et al. Melanoma Res. 2017 Oct;27(5):503-506. doi: 10.1097/CMR.0000000000000373. Melanoma Res. 2017. PMID: 28723725
Unfortunately, the response was not maintained and the patient died 9 months later. This observation demonstrates that discontinuation of BRAF inhibition can result in loss of disease control. On the basis of this observation, we suggest that BRAF-targeted therapy s …

Leptomeningeal melanomatosis with multiple cutaneous pigmented nevi: tumor cell proliferation and malignant transformation in an autopsy case.
Oka H, Kameya T, Hata T, Kawano N, Fujii K, Yada K. Oka H, et al. J Neurooncol. 1999 Aug;44(1):41-5. doi: 10.1023/a:1006127619926. J Neurooncol. 1999. PMID: 10582667
A 33-year-old Japanese man was shown to have leptomeningeal melanomatosis with multiple cutaneous pigmented nevi. The autopsy findings showed the presence not only of benign diffuse melanosis of the leptomeninges but also of leptomeningeal melanomatosis in the subar …
