This is a research study that gathers information from the medical records of patients in Spain who have been diagnosed with advanced or metastatic melanoma (a serious form of skin cancer that has spread). Researchers are not testing a new medication or treatment — instead, they are collecting real-world information about how advanced melanoma develops, what treatments patients receive, and how patients respond to those treatments over time.
Advanced melanoma is a serious condition, and doctors need better information about how it progresses and which treatments work best for different patients. By studying the medical records of hundreds of patients across Spain, researchers hope to identify patterns that will help improve care and outcomes for future melanoma patients.

If you join this study, researchers will review your medical records to gather information about your melanoma diagnosis, treatments you've received, and how you've responded to those treatments. You won't need to take any new medications or undergo new tests — the study simply involves allowing doctors to collect and analyze information that's already in your medical records. Researchers may follow your progress over time by periodically reviewing updated medical information with your permission.
