NF1 Loss Promotes EGFR Activation and Confers Sensitivity to EGFR Inhibition in NF1-Mutant Melanoma
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC12221223
Evidence Type(s): Oncogenic, Predictive
Justification: Oncogenic: The text describes C>T transitions as characteristic of UV-induced mutations in melanoma, which are well-established features of cutaneous melanoma, indicating a role in tumorigenesis. Predictive: The identification of specific mutations, such as C>T transitions, suggests potential pharmacological targets for treatment in NF1Mut melanomas, indicating a predictive aspect for therapeutic response.
