Overview

**lenvatinib + dacarbazine** is a combination of two pharmaceutical agents used as a first-line therapy in patients with advanced-stage melanoma. **Lenvatinib** is a multi-targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor that blocks the activity of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases involved in tumor angiogenesis and proliferation, including vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3), fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR-1), platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFR-β), and KIT. **Dacarbazine** is a cytotoxic alkylating agent that disrupts DNA synthesis. This combination is explored to leverage lenvatinib's antiangiogenic and antiproliferative effects with dacarbazine's cytotoxicity to improve outcomes in metastatic melanoma and potentially other solid tumors[2][3].
