The efficacy and safety of dalpiciclib, a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor, in patients with advanced head and neck mucosal melanoma harboring CDK4 amplification

Mucosal melanoma (MM) is a rare but devastating subtype of melanoma. Our previous studies have demonstrated robust anti-tumor effects of cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK 4/6) inhibitors in head and neck MM (HNMM) patient-derived xenograft models with CDK4 amplification. Herein, we aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of dalpiciclib (SHR6390), a CDK4/6 inhibitor, in HNMM patients harboring CDK4 amplification.
