I apologize, but I don't see specific information about targeted therapy side effects in the provided NCCN Guidelines excerpts. While the guidelines mention targeted therapy as a treatment option, they don't detail the side effects.

To provide accurate information about targeted therapy side effects for melanoma, I would need to reference current NCCN Guidelines sections specifically addressing this topic, or other authoritative sources like:

NCCN Guidelines for Melanoma treatment side effects
ASCO (American Society of Clinical Oncology) Guidelines on targeted therapy
FDA prescribing information for approved melanoma targeted therapies
NCI (National Cancer Institute) patient information on targeted therapy

Without access to these specific sources, I cannot make claims about side effects. I recommend:

Discussing potential side effects with your healthcare team
Requesting patient information materials about your specific targeted therapy medication
Consulting the NCCN Guidelines for Patients website (NCCN.org/patients) for the complete melanoma guidelines
Speaking with your oncologist about what side effects to watch for with your particular treatment

Would you like me to provide information about other aspects of melanoma care that are covered in the guidelines excerpts I have access to?
