Emerging Treatments for Skin Cancer and Post Treatment Care

Trending3.5(New)

Skin cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide, encompassing melanoma and non-melanoma types such as basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). While early-stage disease is often curable with surgical excision, advanced or metastatic disease historically carried a poor prognosis. Recent years have seen a significant transformation in the treatment landscape. Immunotherapy—particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors—has revolutionised outcomes, especially in melanoma, by enhancing the body’s immune response against tumour cells.
