Opposite Roles of BAP1 in Overall Survival of Uveal Melanoma and Cutaneous Melanoma
[Paper-level Aggregated] PMCID: PMC7074098
Evidence Type(s): Prognostic, Oncogenic
Justification: Prognostic: The text indicates that BAP1 amplification is associated with significantly better survival (HR = 0.56, p = 0.005), suggesting a prognostic role for this variant in the context of overall survival in CM. Oncogenic: The presence of missense mutations in BAP1, including E30K, I643T, P629S, R417M, S143N, L416F, and R59W, suggests potential oncogenic significance, although their individual impacts on tumor behavior are described as having unknown significance.
