Recent research has shown that BRAF inhibitors are effective for a short period of time, but there is little hope that this drugs as single agents will lead to durable benefit in a majority of patients. Among scientists and researchers who work in drug discovery, there is a lot of interest in the development of molecularly targeted c. 000724550 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed February 18, 2015). 000724550 650_0 $$aMelanoma$$xTreatment. 000724550 7001_ $$aSullivan, Ryan J.,$$eeditor. 000724550 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aSullivan, Ryan J.$$tBRAF Targets in Melanoma : Biological Mechanisms, Resistance, and Drug Discovery$$dNew York, NY : Springer New York,c2014$$z9781493921423 000724550 830_0 $$aCancer drug discovery and development ;$$vvolume 82. 000724550 852__ $$bebk 000724550 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-1-4939-2143-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000724550 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:724550$$pGLOBAL_SET 000724550 980__ $$aEBOOK 000724550 980__ $$aBIB 000724550 982__ $$aEbook 000724550 983__ $$aOnline 000724550 994__ $$a92$$bISE
