Article Title: Bigger is not always better: Tumor size and prognosis in advanced melanoma
Abstract: Tumor burden is a key consideration for the treatment of solid malignancies. Large baseline tumor size (an assessment of volume of disease in target lesions prior to treatment), elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and site of disease are prognostic of poor overall survival (OS) for patients with advanced melanoma treated with pembrolizumab. © 2018 American Association for Cancer Research.
