Abstract
We report on a patient with an adenocarcinoma of the lung harbouring a BRAF V600E mutation who benefited from combination therapy with dabrafenib-trametinib after developing resistance to vemurafenib. To our knowledge, our report shows, for the first time, that combination therapy with dabrafenib-trametinib can overcome vemurafenib resistance in a BRAF V600E-mutated adenocarcinoma of the lung.Entities:
