  • METHOD FOR PREDICTING DEVELOPMENT OF MELANOMA BRAIN METASTASIS
    Publication number: 20160298198
    Abstract: The invention relates to miRNA-based methods for prognosis of melanoma brain metastasis and related methods and kits. In one embodiment, the invention provides a method for predicting the likelihood of developing melanoma brain metastasis (B-Met) in a subject diagnosed with primary melanoma, said method comprising determining the levels of miR-150-5p, miR-15b-5p, miR-16-5p, and miR-374b-3p in a primary melanoma sample collected from the subject.
