The recent past has witnessed unprecedented clinical progress in the treatment of advanced malignant melanoma through targeting of mutant BRAF in approximately 50 percent of patients and immune check point blockade in all patients. As has been well documented however, responses to targeted therapy are of limited duration and rates of clinical benefit to immunotherapy are modest. Given these factors, palliation of patients with chemotherapy remains an essential aspect of melanoma oncology. Many chemotherapeutics (and combinations with other agents such as immunotherapy) have been evaluated in melanoma however no chemotherapy regimen has been documented to provide an overall survival benefit in a prospective, randomized, well controlled phase III study. Here, we overview the development of the most common chemotherapy regimens for melanoma, discuss the clinical trial evidence supporting and contrasting them and highlight appropriate clinical situations in which they might be employed. Finally, we discuss the future of chemotherapy for melanoma, noting the potential for combinations of chemotherapy with either targeted or immunotherapeutic agents.
