EGFR Inhibitors Could Be Effective Treatment for NF1 Melanoma Subtype

Publication date: Jun 12, 2025

Early results suggest drugs targeting lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis or additional receptor tyrosine kinases could be part of an effective combination drug strategy. The researchers are also examining possible combination therapies that would enhance the anti-tumor effects of EGFR inhibition. NF1 mutations were found in 40% of these cases.
