Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

BRAF A598_T599insV melanoma predicted - sensitive MEK inhibitor (Pan) MEK1 Inhibitor MEK2 Inhibitor Trametinib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a Phase II trial, Mekinist (trametinib) treatment resulted in clinical benefit in six of nine melanoma patients harboring BRAF fusions or non-V600 BRAF mutations, including stable disease lasting 7.3 months with a tumor reduction of 8% in a patient harboring BRAF A598_T599insV, who also harbored KIT M541L (PMID: 33861486; NCT02296112). 33861486
BRAF A598_T599insV melanoma predicted - sensitive MEK inhibitor (Pan) MEK1 Inhibitor MEK2 Inhibitor Dabrafenib + Trametinib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a clinical case study, Tafinlar (dabrafenib) and Mekinist (trametinib) combination treatment resulted in a partial response within 4 weeks with a progression-free survival of 4.6 months in a patient with metastatic melanoma harboring BRAF A598_T599insV (PMID: 28800030). 28800030
BRAF A598_T599insV melanoma predicted - sensitive MEK inhibitor (Pan) MEK1 Inhibitor MEK2 Inhibitor Dabrafenib + Trametinib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a clinical case study, treatment with the combination of Tafinlar (dabrafenib) and Mekinist (trametinib) resulted in limited response in the primary tumor, but regression of the abdominal lymph node and groin metastases in a patient with metastatic melanoma harboring BRAF A598_T599insV, with a decrease in the variant allele frequency of BRAF A598_T599insV (PMID: 31824282). 31824282
