Navigating the Complexity of Melanoma Care: A Case-Based Debate

Drs Smithy, Tarhini, and LutzkyThis dynamic, case-based debate brings together melanoma specialists to examine first-line treatment options, sequencing in BRAF-mutant disease, and the integration of central nervous system (CNS)-directed therapy for brain metastases. Designed for oncology professionals, the session highlights where evidence is strongest, where data are evolving, and how to personalize decisions amid competing, guideline-supported options.

Round 1

Treatment for Patient Case 1

The debate opens with a case exploring first-line treatment for BRAF wild-type metastatic melanoma, weighing the long-term benefits of ipilimumab+nivolumab against the tolerability of nivolumab+relatlimab.

Round 2

Treatment for Patient Case 2

In the second round, panelists debate whether patients with BRAF-mutant melanoma should start with targeted therapy or combination immunotherapy, weighing durability of response, toxicity, and sequencing strategies.

Round 3

Treatment for Patient Case 3

The panel discusses optimal initial management of brain metastases in the third round, comparing evidence for combination immunotherapy with the role of CNS-directed therapy.
