PURPOSE: To assess the clinical features of ocular adverse events in patients receiving BRAF/MEK inhibitor therapy. METHODS: In this retrospective study, 65 patients were treated with BRAF/MEK inhibitors (dabrafenib/trametinib or encorafenib/binimetinib). RESULTS: Of the 65 patients, 28 had malignant melanoma and 37 had non-melanoma malignancies. Bilateral MEK-associated retinopathy was observed in nine cases
none experienced vision loss due to MEK-associated retinopathy. Uveitis was diagnosed in four patients (6.1%), three of whom presented with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH)-like uveitis. All VKH-like uveitis cases were observed in patients with melanoma and their incidences were significantly higher in these patients than in those without melanoma ( CONCLUSION: VKH-like uveitis was found to be significantly more frequent in patients with melanoma than in those with other malignancies.
