Background
Given equivocal results related to overall survival (OS) for patients with multiple primary melanomas (MPMs) compared with those with single primary melanomas (SPMs) in previous reports, the authors sought to determine whether OS differs between these 2 cohorts in their center using their UPCI‐96‐99 database. Secondary aims were to assess the differences in recurrence‐free survival (RFS)...
BACKGROUNDThe management of pediatric melanoma (PM) has largely been extrapolated from adult data. However, the behavior of PM appears to differ from its adult counterparts. Therefore, an international PM registry was created and analyzed.
METHODSTwelve institutions contributed deidentified clinicopathologic and outcome data for patients diagnosed with PM from 1953 through 2008.
RESULTSOverall survival...
Reliable prognostic biomarkers of survival and response to treatment are clearly important in oncology, and many studies have been carried out with the objective of identifying new prognostic biomarkers. Retrospective analysis of blood banked from patients is a frequently used paradigm for these studies. We describe a new study of the association of serum biomarker level with overall survival in melanoma...
