Résumé

Melanoma brain metastases (MBMs) are historically associated with poor prognosis. Radiation therapy is conventionally associated with a high local control rate. Development of targeted therapy and immunotherapy has improved overall survival (OS) and intracranial response rate, but about 50% of patients failed to respond to these novel therapies. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of combined radiotherapy (cRT) on overall survival in a large multicenter real-life prospective cohort of patients with MBM treated with immunotherapy or targeted therapy.
