MelanoDB: A dataset of clinical and molecular features of patients with advanced melanoma treated with MAPK inhibitors.
Article in Scientific data, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
MAPK inhibitors (MAPKi) have revolutionized the treatment of patients with advanced melanoma. However, primary and acquired resistance mechanisms limit their efficacy. Predicting MAPKi response from the tumor baseline features remains challenging due to the limited size of patient cohorts. Therefore, we collected data from nine different patient cohorts (total n = 417 patients with advanced melanoma treated with MAPKi) to identify clinical and molecular features. Our curated dataset, named MelanoDB, includes whole or partial exome sequencing data for 191 patients, copy number alteration information for 66 patients, and gene expression data for 132 patients. We provide a web application to explore the integrated dataset and data distribution across the collected studies, and we share this dataset with the scientific community according to the Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable (FAIR) principles.
