摘要
Currently there has been a huge development in melanoma therapy. There are drugs with high efficacy, but also with a completely new toxicity profile. Below is a case report of a patient treated for metastatic melanoma of the body. Treatment included vemurafenib and immunotherapy in the form of pembrolizumab, a monoclonal antibody blocking PD-1 receptor. Among toxicity, dermatological effects of vemurafenib treatment and hepatotoxicity during immunotherapy were observed mainly in case of treatment with vemurafenib. The applied treatment allowed for several years of survival of the patient in good general condition.
