This targeted therapy is used to treat melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body and carries a specific mutation in the BRAF gene (V600E). It works by blocking the mutated BRAF protein that tells cancer cells to grow uncontrollably. Resistance often develops within months of starting treatment, so it is sometimes combined with MEK inhibitors to prolong effectiveness.
