Research into the cyclin-dependent kinases and their inhibitors is finally coming into the forefront of clinical research in cancer. Targeted therapies such as BRAF inhibitors have led the way in improving treatment outcomes in advanced melanoma. Based on detailed genomic knowledge of melanoma it is now time to extend targeted therapies beyond BRAF to fulfill the vision of precision medicine. The p16 INK4A -cyclin D-CDK4/6-retinoblastoma protein pathway (RB pathway) is dysregulated in more than 90% of melanomas and interacts biochemically and genetically with the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway. Recognizing and understanding these processes that drive melanomagenesis is essential to rationally develop new therapies. This paper reviews the mechanisms, background and progress of small molecule CDK4 inhibitors in the management of melanoma.
