El Grup de Recerca en Melanoma i Altres Tumors Cutanis del VHIO se centra principalment en la recerca clínica i translacional, amb una atenció especial al desenvolupament de noves teràpies dirigides, estratègies basades en immunoteràpia i a l’estudi dels mecanismes de resistència primària i adquirida als tractaments actuals.
La nostra activitat de recerca abasta tot l’espectre de subtipus de melanoma, inclosos el melanoma cutani, mucós, acral i uveal, així com altres tumors malignes de la pell, com el carcinoma cutani de cèl·lules escamoses i el carcinoma basocel·lular. Paral·lelament, liderem i participem en assaigs clínics de fases inicials i avançades en diferents estadis de la malaltia, inclosos els contextos metastàtic, neoadjuvant i adjuvant.
En els darrers anys, la nostra Unitat s’ha consolidat com a centre de referència nacional i internacional en el tractament i la recerca del càncer de pell. Aquest posicionament ha estat possible gràcies al desenvolupament d’un dels arsenals terapèutics més amplis en oncologia cutània, que permet als pacients accedir a fàrmacs innovadors i a assaigs clínics d’avantguarda.
El nostre model de recerca multidisciplinària i translacional constitueix una de les principals fortaleses del grup. L’equip integra oncòlegs mèdics, dermatòlegs, patòlegs, biòlegs moleculars, investigadors translacionals i altres especialistes mèdics, fet que afavoreix un flux bidireccional continu entre el laboratori i la pràctica clínica. Aquesta estructura ens ha permès coordinar i liderar una de les xarxes col·laboratives de melanoma més grans d’Espanya i Europa, impulsant iniciatives de recerca multicèntrica i col·laboracions internacionals.
Al llarg del 2025, hem continuat assolint avenços significatius mitjançant el lideratge, el colideratge i la participació en múltiples assaigs clínics de fases I a III que avaluen estratègies terapèutiques innovadores. Entre aquestes s’inclouen inhibidors de punts de control immunitari de nova generació, teràpies cel·lulars, combinacions de teràpies dirigides i nous enfocaments neoadjuvants i adjuvants. Paral·lelament, participem activament en projectes translacionals i guiats per biomarcadors, amb una atenció especial a comprendre i superar la resistència a les immunoteràpies estàndard i als tractaments dirigits.
Una de les nostres principals línies estratègiques de recerca és l’estudi dels esdeveniments adversos relacionats amb el sistema immunitari (irAE). En estreta col·laboració amb diferents serveis de l’Hospital Universitari Vall d’Hebron, entre els quals hi ha Medicina Interna, Cardiologia, Neurologia, Nefrologia, Hepatologia i Endocrinologia, hem consolidat un Grup de Treball sobre Toxicitat de la Immunoteràpia. Aquesta iniciativa multidisciplinària té com a objectius:
- Millorar la identificació precoç i el maneig de les toxicitats relacionades amb el sistema immunitari.
- Harmonitzar els circuits assistencials i avançar en la recerca clínica i translacional sobre els mecanismes biològics que subjauen als irAE.
Mitjançant aquest enfocament integrat, el Grup de Recerca en Melanoma i Altres Tumors Cutanis del VHIO continua reforçant el seu compromís amb l’oncologia de precisió, la innovació centrada en el pacient i la translació dels descobriments científics en beneficis clínics tangibles.
- Consolidar la nostra Unitat de Tumors Cutanis com a centre de referència nacional i internacional en melanoma i altres càncers de pell, reforçant una xarxa de derivació ja consolidada i continuant amb el lideratge, el colideratge i la participació activa en assaigs clínics a gran escala des de les primeres etapes del seu disseny, planificació i implementació.
- Millorar els resultats clínics dels pacients amb melanoma cutani i ocular, alhora que aprofundim en el coneixement dels mecanismes biològics que intervenen en l’inici i la progressió de la malaltia i en la resposta al tractament.
- Impulsar el desenvolupament clínic inicial de fàrmacs, centrat en la identificació i validació de biomarcadors de progressió tumoral, resposta terapèutica i resistència, així com en el desenvolupament de noves dianes terapèutiques per al melanoma i altres tumors malignes cutanis.
- Ampliar i reforçar les col·laboracions amb altres grups de recerca del VHIO i impulsar projectes translacionals integrats orientats a assolir una comprensió més completa de la immunologia tumoral i la biologia molecular dels càncers de pell.
- Esclarir els mecanismes moleculars i cel·lulars que impulsen el desenvolupament i la progressió dels càncers de pell no melanoma, amb una atenció especial al carcinoma cutani de cèl·lules escamoses i al carcinoma basocel·lular.
- Identificar i validar dianes moleculars susceptibles d’intervenció terapèutica, incloses les implicades en el metabolisme tumoral, per ampliar i diversificar l’arsenal terapèutic disponible per als pacients amb tumors cutanis.
