Study design details

Main study objective

The primary objective of this study is to further follow up previously identified suggestive associations between pyrexia and a genetic variant in IL28B (rs8099917) by meta-analysis of melanoma subjects from BRF113710, BRF113929, BRF113683 and MEK115306

Data analysis plan

The initial PGx analysis will focus on the metastatic melanoma subjects from MEK115306 who met the definition of a case or control. These subjects will be meta-analyzed along with the 3 study populations BRF113710, BRF113929, and BRF113683.
