Available treatment options for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) are expanding and involving more interdisciplinary dialogue. This slides/audio presentation features 3 clinical case scenarios with feedback and commentary by a medical oncologist, surgeon, and dermatologist exploring topics in immunotherapy, Mohs surgery, and complex patient presentations.
The intended audience for this activity is Mohs surgeons, medical oncologists, and dermatologists who manage patients with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC).
Educational Objectives
Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to:
Utilize novel and emerging agents to manage advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) based on their efficacy and safety data and mechanisms of action
Identify patients with cSCC who are unlikely to be cured by surgery to expedite appropriate workup, multidisciplinary team collaboration, and referral for systemic therapy (including, immunotherapy) to improve patient outcomes and quality of life
Incorporate shared decision making (SDM), quality of life assessment and management, and collaborative care for patients with cSCC to improve patient outcomes
