NEW STRATEGIES FOR TREATING MELANOMA

摘要

The present invention relates to a p53-activating agent capable of transferring wild-type tumor protein p53 (p53) from an inactive conformation into an active conformation capable of inducing apoptosis, for use in the treatment of melanoma, wherein said p53-activating agent is administered simultaneously or sequentially with a BRAF-inhibiting agent capable of inhibiting activity of serine/threonine-protein kinase B-Raf (BRAF) comprising an activating mutation.
