BRAF/MEK Inhibitor Therapy: Consensus Statement From the Faculty of the Melanoma Nursing Initiative on Managing Adverse Events and Potential Drug Interactions.
Clinical Journal of Oncology Nursing 2017 August 2
BACKGROUND: BRAF/MEK inhibitor therapy improves outcomes in BRAF V600E- and V600K-mutated unresectable or metastatic melanoma. However, these regimens are associated with adverse events (AEs) that may lead to unnecessary drug modifications and discontinuations or potentially serious sequelae. In addition, drug-drug interactions (DDIs) may result in AEs or altered therapeutic efficacy.
