Abstract

We identified a significant association between exposure to TNFαIs and malignant melanoma in two different analyses. Our findings add to existing evidence linking these agents with the occurrence of malignant melanoma. Additional investigations are required to explore this association further along with the risk of melanoma with TNFαI therapy.
