The advances in the treatment of melanoma patients with V600 mutations in the BRAF gene over the past few years result from the introduction of targeted drugs and modern immunotherapy. Unfortunately, at the moment there is a lack of data from a randomised clinical trial that determines the optimal sequence of anti-BRAF/anti-MEK drugs and immunotherapy in BRAF (+) patients. This paper discusses the most important clinical trials performed so far, the results of which may be helpful in the selection of systemic treatment in patients with advanced or metastatic melanoma harbouring BRAF V600 mutation. Formal analysis indicates that molecularly targeted treatment is the method of choice in the first-line setting in patients with BRAF (+) m...
