Whole-genome landscape of mucosal melanoma reveals diverse drivers and therapeutic targets

Mucosal melanomas are challenging to treat partly because so little is known about the genetic drivers underpinning them. Here, the authors perform a genomic landscape analysis of samples collected from three continents, revealing a potential role for CDK4/6 or MEK inhibition in the treatment of the...
