  2. V600E - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V600E

    V600E is a mutation of the BRAF gene in which valine (V) is substituted by glutamic acid (E) at amino acid 600. [1] [2] It is a driver mutation in a proportion of certain diagnoses, including melanoma, [3] [4] hairy cell leukemia, [5] [6] papillary thyroid carcinoma, [7] [8] colorectal cancer, [9] non-small-cell lung cancer, [10] [11] Langerhans cell histiocytosis, [12] Erdheim–Chester ...

    Brimarafenib is an investigational new drug that is being evaluated for the treatment of cancer. It targets the proto-oncogene BRAF with activating mutations BRAF mutations (such as V600E), non-V600 BRAF mutations, and RAF fusions.

  6. Uveal melanoma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uveal_melanoma

    [14] [15] As seen in BRAF, mutations in GNAQ/GNA11 are early events in tumorigenesis and are not prognostic for tumor stage or later metastatic spread. [16] In contrast, mutations in the gene BAP1 are strongly linked to metastatic spread and patient survival. [17] Incidence of posterior uveal melanoma is highest among people with light skin and ...
