    Objectives: A systematic literature review was undertaken with quantitative analysis, including meta-analysis and Bucher-adjusted indirect treatment comparisons (ITCs), to evaluate efficacy, safety, and tolerability of dabrafenib and trametinib monotherapy versus other first-line metastatic melanoma (MM) treatments. Methods: Embase®, MEDLINE®, CCTR, and key conferences were searched through October 2012 for relevant randomized controlled trials. Using a random-effects network meta-analysis, dabrafenib and trametinib were compared directly versus dacarbazine (DTIC) and indirectly versus ipilimumab plus DTIC, temozolomide, and vemurafenib. A Rank Preserving Structural Failure Time Method was used to adjust overall survival (OS) estimates in studies that allowed treatment crossover upon progression. .. View More»
