Nicolay HJM et al. - Surgical resection represents the treatment of choice for primary melanoma, providing the best results, in terms of long-term survival, for thin lesions. However, surgery has limited efficacy in the management of locoregional and distant metastases, as do chemotherapy and radiotherapy. In this context, immunotherapy is a promising and additional therapeutic option to cure melanoma patients and to prevent relapse of the disease.
