摘要
Patients of colour predominately present with acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM), the most lethal subtype of cutaneous melanoma. We here advocate for increased mechanistic studies using models derived from the patient communities suffering most from ALM to develop therapies that benefit patients across all ethnic and racial groups.
