Title: Will Hsp90 inhibitors prove effective in BRAF-mutant melanomas? Author: Catalanotti F, Solit DB. Journal: Clin Cancer Res; 2012 May 01; 18(9):2420-2. PubMed ID: 22442059. Abstract: The RAF inhibitor vemurafenib has unprecedented activity in BRAF-mutant melanomas, but resistance invariably develops.
