Melanoma has seen the most remarkable therapeutic improvements among all cancers in the past decade, primarily due to the development of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). Initially developed in the patients with advanced disease, ICI are now used in adjuvant and neoadjuvant settings. More recently, the development of LAG-3 blocking antibody and the combination of ICI with a personalized RNA-based vaccine have continued to lead the immunotherapeutic field. Despite these advances, primary and secondary resistances remain problematic and there is a high need for predictive biomarkers to optimize benefit/risk ratio of ICI use.
