Discussion Topics

  • Evidence-Based Treatment of Nonmetastatic and Metastatic Melanoma
  • Optimizing the Management of Nonmelanoma Skin Cancers

CE Information

Target Audience
This program is intended for medical oncologists, hematology-oncology fellows, radiation oncologists and other healthcare professionals involved in the treatment of melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers.

Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to

  • Identify factors affecting the risk of recurrence for patients with localized melanoma, and evaluate the role of approved targeted and immunotherapeutic agents as adjuvant therapy.
  • Use available clinical trial evidence to safely and effectively incorporate immunotherapeutic, targeted or combination approaches into the management of newly diagnosed metastatic melanoma.
  • Consider age, performance status and other biological and disease-related factors in the selection of therapy — including potential clinical trial participation — for patients with metastatic melanoma who experience disease progression on front-line immune checkpoint inhibitor-based treatment.
  • Assess available efficacy and safety findings with anti-LAG-3 antibodies in combination with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies for advanced melanoma in order to optimally integrate this strategy into the treatment armamentarium.
  • Use available clinical trial evidence to safely and effectively integrate immunotherapeutic approaches into the management of advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC).
  • Formulate a long-term clinical plan for the management of advanced basal cell carcinoma (BCC), incorporating targeted and immunotherapeutic strategies.
  • Evaluate clinical research findings with immunotherapeutic agents as neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy for patients with cSCC or BCC to determine the current clinical utility of various approaches.
  • Recall the design of ongoing clinical trials evaluating novel agents and strategies for melanoma, cSCC and BCC, and appropriately counsel patients about availability and participation.
