Groups and cohorts

  • advanced melanoma patients

    Part 1 will consist of a representative sample of advanced melanoma patients, irrespective of date of diagnosis of stage III unresectable and metastatic/stage IV, to address information objectives on treatment patterns, clinical outcomes, and resource use after the start of treatment post-launch of new drugs, ie, since 2011 for ipi and 2015 for ipi + nivo in advanced melanoma
