DESCRIPTION

Approximately 5% of cutaneous SCCs (cSCCs) harbor high-risk features. The rate of nodal metastasis and disease-specific death for cSCCs are 4% and 1.5%, respectively. This session, designed for general dermatologists and dermatologic surgeons, will discuss clinical, histological and molecular features of high-risk cSCCs by reviewing outcomes and limitations of current staging systems and gene expression profiling. Participants will learn how to improve management of cSCCs based on tumor risk stratifications and host factors, and update their knowledge on topics of field cancerization, nodal staging, radiologic imaging, post-operative adjuvant therapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors for high risk and advanced cSCCs.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1.

Recognize clinical, histological and molecular features of high-risk cSCCs, and review outcomes and limitations of current staging systems and gene expression profiling.

2.

Outline opportunities to improve management of cSCCs based on tumor risk stratifications and host factors, using field therapy, radiologic and nodal staging, and post-operative adjuvant therapy.

3.

Discuss advances in the management of unresectable and metastatic cSCCs.
