Abstract:
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are now commonly used to treat patients with metastatic malignant melanoma. Although concerns have been raised that the inflammatory response induced by ICIs may limit the ability of F-FDG PET/CT to assess tumor response, systematic analyses on the use of F-FDG PET/CT in this setting are mostly lacking. Thus, we set out to evaluate the association between tumor response on F-FDG PET/CT and prognosis in patients with metastatic malignant melanoma treated with i...     »
