[Advanced melanoma with low-burden and low-risk disease: a clinical case.]

The management of patients with advanced melanoma is becoming more complex than in past years, due to the recent innovations in the therapeutic scenario. New treatment options, such as the immunotherapeutic combination of ipilimumab and nivolumab, and new BRAF and MEK inhibitors recently introduced, namely encorafenib and binimetinib, were recently approved by the Italian regulatory entities, enriching the systemic therapy armamentarium. In this context, tailoring the therapeutic strategy basing on the patient's characteristics is even more crucial to improve the clinical outcome. Patients with low tumor burden and low-risk disease (i.e., with normal LDH levels), having higher survival rates and probability of good outcome to systemic therapy, represent a challenge for the clinician, deserving the attempt to reach long-term complete responses. The following case report is quite representative of the above-mentioned clinical situation.
