First seen Dec 18, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This program gives adults with a specific type of advanced melanoma (BRAF mutation-positive) access to two targeted drugs, trametinib and dabrafenib, which work together to shrink tumors and control the disease. It is designed for patients whose cancer has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to provide treatment when no other options are available, but it is not a cure and requires ongoing medication.
