DESCRIPTION

Open admission to eligible categories, no tuition or ticket

There have been many recent advances in our understanding of potential therapeutic and management options for patients with early-stage melanoma (melanoma confined only to the skin). This session discusses incorporating this information into practice as well as reviewing clinical trials of potential therapeutic options. Topics include an update on total body imaging options, a literature update relevant to patients with melanoma or at risk for melanoma, how to choose genetic testing for melanoma patients or those at risk, current options for ancillary tumor testing, and a review of the role of adjuvant therapy in the early-stage melanoma population.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1.

Discuss available genetic testing options for patients with melanoma or at risk for melanoma, and available ancillary tumor testing options.

2.

Discuss the potential role of adjuvant therapy in patients with melanoma confined only to the skin.

3.

Describe total body imaging options and describe recent literature findings of relevance to patients with melanoma or at risk for melanoma.
