Melanoma, a highly aggressive form of skin cancer, has seen significant advancements in treatment through the introduction of immunotherapy. However, the variability in patient responses underscores the need for reliable biomarkers to guide treatment decisions. This article reviews key biomarkers in melanoma immunotherapy, such as PD-L1 expression, tumor mutational burden (TMB), and gene expression profiles (GEPs). It also explores emerging biomarkers, including LAG-3 expression, immune cell phenotyping in tissue and blood, gut microbiota, and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). Notably, ctDNA may offer valuable insights into the efficacy of T cell-engaging bispecific molecules, such as tebentafusp. The review provides a comprehensive overview of the evolving landscape of melanoma biomarkers, their role in personalizing treatment, and future research directions, including neoadjuvant immune checkpoint inhibition.
