    GlossaryTrametinib

    medication that inhibits MEK protein to treat specific cancers

    Trametinib is a medication used to treat certain types of cancer, specifically melanoma with a BRAF V600E or V600K mutation. It works by inhibiting a protein called MEK, which is part of a pathway that helps cancer cells grow and divide. By blocking this protein, trametinib can slow down or stop the growth of cancer cells.
