Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Alexandra Frelau"
- Alexandra Frelau's research predominantly focuses on the impact of thyroid dysfunctions in patients with metastatic melanoma, particularly those treated with anti-PD-1 antibodies.
- Her studies utilize positron emission tomography (PET) to evaluate thyroid uptake and its correlation with the development of permanent hypothyroidism, indicating a need for monitoring thyroid function during immunotherapy.
- Frelau's work underscores the relevance of identifying predictive biomarkers for immune checkpoint inhibitors, as different responses to treatment can significantly affect patient outcomes.
