Neoadjuvant Therapy for Melanoma.

With the universal adoption of immune checkpoint blockade and agents targeting BRAF-mutated melanomas in the metastatic setting, numerous clinical trials have evaluated these agents in the neoadjuvant setting. These smaller trials have shown promising results with high pathologic response rates and acceptable safety. Larger prospective randomized trials are under way to determine if all patients with resectable metastatic disease should be receiving neoadjuvant therapy.
