Abstract

Melanoma vaccines are the best near term hope for improving mortality in patients with advanced disease. Although these vaccines are being developed for treatment of patients with advanced disease, their relatively low toxicity make them attractive for adjuvant therapy in stage I patients at high risk for recurrence. Recent developments in melanoma vaccines are reviewed and their importance to dermatologists is emphasized.
