PROGRAM OVERVIEW
This program is designed to address persistent clinical gaps in the management of nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), particularly in identifying and treating high-risk disease. The program is structured to improve clinicians’ knowledge, competence, and confidence by enabling them to identify key diagnostic and stratification criteria to promptly and accurately recognize high-risk NMSC. Building on this foundation, the education integrates current clinical data for emerging neoadjuvant and adjuvant immunotherapies, supporting clinicians in incorporating these approaches into treatment strategies to optimize surgical outcomes and reduce recurrence risk. Additionally, the program emphasizes the importance of coordinated, patient-centered care by developing strategies for clinicians to work effectively within the multidisciplinary team and engage patients in shared decision-making, ultimately enhancing communication, care alignment, and overall outcomes in high-risk NMSC management.
TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is designed to meet the educational needs of clinicians who are involved in the management of patients with NMSCs. This may include dermato-oncologists, oncologists, and surgeons with varying skin cancer-specific expertise, and associated advanced practice providers (APPs; e.g., oncology nurses, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants), and other clinicians involved in the treatment and care of patients with NMSC.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon the completion of this program, attendees should be able to:
- Identify key diagnostic and stratification criteria to promptly and accurately identify high-risk NMSC
- Integrate clinical data for emerging neoadjuvant and adjuvant immunotherapies for NMSC into treatment strategies
- Develop strategies to work closely within the multidisciplinary team, and with the patient, to optimize patient care
