Abstract

Targeting BRAF in <i>BRAF</i>-mutant melanoma is highly effective, but most patients develop resistance. HSP90 has been implicated and identified as a therapeutic target. Ultimately, early-stage clinical investigation will be necessary to provide proof of principle of this approach and if appropriate randomized trials to confirm promising findings. <i>Clin Cancer Res; 24(22); 5496-8. ©2018 AACR</i> <i>See related article by Eroglu et al., p. 5516</i>.
