Analysis Demonstrates Predictive Capacity of 4 Staging Systems for Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Staging systems were analyzed for specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, concordance index, and other parameters.
Skin Cancer
Cutaneous Melanoma Treatment Regimens
View treatment regimens for melanoma, including guidance on options and dosing for a number of drugs including ipilimumab and dacarbazine.
Patient-Led Surveillance Shows Potential in Posttreatment Care of Localized Melanoma
A pilot randomized clinical trial compared a patient-led intervention with usual care for patients with prior primary melanoma.
Risk of Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer Associated With Exposure to Ruxolitinib
Results of a 10-year retrospective study suggests a higher risk of nonmelanoma skin cancer in patients with polycythemia vera or myelofibrosis after ruxolitinib exposure.
Radiotherapy Not Likely to Increase Toxic Effect of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors
Researchers assessed the relationship between concomitant radiotherapy and ICI therapy and the need for corticosteroids in patients with lung cancer or melanoma.
Pretreatment Found to Reduce Stages of Mohs Surgery for Basal Cell Carcinoma
A retrospective study evaluated the effect of 5% imiquimod prior to Mohs surgery in patients with basal cell carcinoma.
Racial Disparities in Skin Cancer Diagnosis, Prognosis, and Treatment
How significant is the racial disparity in treating patients with skin cancer? Studies in recent years that suggest a troubling difference in the diagnosis and treatment some patients receive. We explore the significant impact this has on patient prognosis.
Model More Accurately Predicts Outcomes of Radiotherapy in Cancer Patients
The genomic-adjusted radiation dose (GARD) model predicts outcomes of radiotherapy.
Dermatologic Adverse Events With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in Metastatic Melanoma
Female patients showed an enhanced rate of dermatologic adverse events with immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy for metastatic melanoma.
Real-World Data Finds an Overall Decrease in Pediatric Melanoma Diagnoses in the United States
Researchers studied a total of 1903 cases of pediatric melanoma and patients were 54.4% female, the mean age was 12.4 years, and 89.8% were White.
