Suggested treatment strategy in Vemurafenib-resistant melanoma patients with CDC7 inhibitor, TAK-931. Diagrammatic representation of the suggested strategy for treatment of melanoma patients with CDC7 inhibitor who had BRAF mutation and developed resistance against Vemurafenib. If CDC7 expression is high in the tissues of these patients, they are expecting to receive CDC7 specific inhibitor TAK-931 sequentially to Vemurafenib treatment and after developing signs of drug resistance. Another strategy is to increase the bioavailability of miR-3613-3p to the tumor cells, where it targets CDC7 and its downstream signaling. This intervention is anticipated to reduce the drug resistance and improve the clinical outcomes of the melanoma patients.
