Advanced Basal Cell Carcinoma: Navigating an Evolving Therapeutic Landscape: A Care Team ForumSM
Program Overview
Therapeutic options for advanced basal cell carcinoma (BCC) have been transformed by the introduction of Hedgehog pathway inhibitors (HPIs) and the emergence of immunotherapy. Led by a multidisciplinary expert panel, this activity uniquely features an experienced patient sharing key insights from their treatment journey. The discussion focuses on the role and place of HPIs and PD-1 inhibitors in advanced BCC and provides professional guidance on managing class-specific toxicities, including immune-mediated adverse events.
This activity is designed to meet the educational needs of dermatology and oncology physicians who diagnose and manage patients with advanced basal cell carcinoma (BCC).
