Abstract
In recent decades, the field of systemic cancer treatment has seen remarkable changes due to advancements in the understanding of cancer's biology, immunology, and genetic makeup. As a result, individuals with late-stage cancers are now achieving survival rates that were previously unattainable. The goal of personalized cancer therapy is to enhance clinical outcomes by customizing drug treatments to suit the unique genetic and/or epigenetic profiles of each patient's tumor. This approach aims to reduce the side effects commonly associated with ineffective treatments. Advances in genetic sequencing and molecular cytogenetics have been instrumental in identifying cancer-driving mutations and epigenetic irregularities, leading to the development of specific molecular therapies. This review article highlights the progress and success of targeted molecular therapies in treating malignant melanoma, illustrating the concept of personalized cancer treatment.
