Objectives
•Briefly review disease pathogenesis, presentation, and treatment options
•Discuss updates in the literature in regard to the various premalignant and
malignant lesions
•Introduce ongoing research and future studies in the field of non-melanoma
skin cancers
Premalignant Lesions
Actinic Keratosis •Most common precancerous lesion
–Can progress to SCC
•0.1-0.6% per lesion-year
•Treatment options:
–Cryotherapy
–Topical treatments:
•5-Fluorouracil (0.5-5%)
•Imiquimod 5% cream
•Ingenol mebutate
•Diclofenac
–Photodynamic therapy
–Destructive/Surgical management
Dermatology 3ed.
Actinic Keratosis
•5-FU, imiquimod, ingenol mebutate and diclofenac are similarly efficacious but have
different adverse effects and cosmetic outcomes
•Use dependent on patient preferences, prior physician and patient experience, and
cost
Actinic Keratosis
•Single course of 5% fluorouracil cream effectively reduces AK counts and need for
spot treatment for longer than 2 years
•Fewer hypertrophic AKs in the treatment group at 6 months
Malignant lesions
Basal Cell Carcinoma•Most common type of skin cancer
–2 million Americans affected every year
•Metastasis is extremely rare
–0.0028-0.55% metastatic rate
–50% of deaths from BCC result from direct extension into vital structure rather than
metastases

Basal Cell Carcinoma
•Pathogenesis
–Arise from pluripotent cells
associated with hair follicle
–Mutations that activate
hedgehog signaling pathway
cell growth
•Sonic hedgehog
•Patched 1 - most common

Basal Cell Carcinoma
• Follow up of 104 patients with locally
advanced or metastatic BCC from the pivotal
ERIVANCE study
• Median duration of vismodegib exposure was
12.9 months
• Increased response rates
–Metastatic disease - 30.3% to 33.3%
–Locally advanced – 42.9% to 47.6%
• Median duration of response improved from
7.6 – 9.5 months for locally advanced disease
• No change in side effect profile or new
emerging safety signals
Basal Cell Carcinoma
• 8 articles (704 patients ) systematically
reviewed to evaluate clinical experience
with hedgehog pathway inhibitors
•Vismodegib
–significant, consistent effect on
locally advanced and metastatic BCC
–Superior responses for metastatic
BCC compared to traditional treatment
•Not enough data to review sonidegib since
its approval in 2015
Basal Cell Carcinoma
•Treatment options:
–Surgical
•Excision
•Mohs Micrographic surgery (MMS)
•Curettage and electrodessication
–Radiation
–Topical treatments: Imiquimod, 5-FU
–Hedgehog pathway inhibitors (HPIs)
•Vismodegib (2012) and sonidegib (2015)
•Itraconazole
Basal Cell Carcinoma
• 29 patients enrolled in open-label study
–Cohort A: 200mg twice daily x 1 month
–Cohort B: 100mg twice daily x 2.5 months
•Reduced tumor size and promoted re-epithelialization in 8 patients
•None of the BCCs completely cleared
•Average tumor reduction with lower dosage (Cohort B) was comparable to higher dosage (Cohort A)
Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC)
•Second most common skin cancer in the United States
•700,000 cases annually

Hospital (BWH) 2013
T1 Tumor <2 cm in greatest dimension 0 high-risk factors*
T2 Tumor >2cm in greatest dimension 0 high-risk factors*
T2a 1 high-risk factors*
T2b 2-3 high-risk factors*
T3 Tumor with invasion of deep structures (muscle, cartilage, bone) >4 high-risk factors* or bony
invasion
T4 Tumor with invasion of axial skeleton or direct perineural invasion of skull
base
* BWH high-risk factors: tumor diameter >2cm, poorly differentiated histology, perineural invasion >0.1mm, tumor
invasion beyond fat
Squamous Cell Carcinoma
•National comprehensive cancer network (NCCN) high-risk features:
–Tumor location- mucosal surfaces, genitalia, periorbital, nose, lips, chin, ears,
temples, sites of prior burn scars or radiation
–Tumor diameter >2cm
–Tumor depth >2mm ( Clark level >IV)
–Perineural invasion
–Lymphovascular invasion
–Poorly differentiated histopathology
–Immunosuppression
•Solid organ transplant (particularly kidney) > bone marrow transplant

Squamous Cell Carcinoma
•Additional management considerations for high risk SCC:
–Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB)
•2015 meta-analysis recommends considering SLNB for patients with T2
lesions
–Radiographic imaging to assess disease burden for high risk patients
•CT, MRI, PET
–Biomarkers for characterization of aggressive SCC
•Matrix-metalloproteinases, p300, nuclear IKK
Squamous Cell Carcinoma
•Immunotherapy for metastatic SCC
–Metastatic SCC has elevated expression of epidermal growth factor
receptor (EGFR)
•Cetuximab - EGFR inhibitor
•Pantimumab - monoclonal antibody against EGFR
–Combination therapy of cetuximab, fluorouracil, carboplatin, or
cisplatin
–PD-1 inhibitors
–CTLA-4 inhibitor
Squamous Cell Carcinoma•Chemoprevention
– 2 or more NMSC + 10 or more AKs
•Acitretin – 0.2-0.4mg/kg/day
–4 month up taper
–CBC, CMP, lipids, LFTs q3mo
–Continued indefinitely
•Nicotinamide (niacinamide or nicotinic acid) –
500mg BID
–23% fewer people had NMSC
–Lower side effect profile and no lab
monitoring
Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma
• T cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas
• Average of 6 years from presentation to diagnosis
– Clinically and histopathologically can resemble benign inflammatory disorders including psoriasis and atopic dermatitis
Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma
• High-throughput TCR sequencing (HTS) detected T cell clones in 46/46 CTCL patients• More sensitive and specific than TCRγ PCR• Successfully discriminated CTCL from benign inflammatory diseases• Demonstrated hematogenous spread of small numbers of malignant T
cells in patients with new skin lesions
Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma
• High-throughput TCR sequencing (HTS)• Accurately assessed responses to therapy and facilitated diagnosis of
disease recurrence• Diagnosed CTCL in all stages• Provided insights into the cell of origin and location of malignant CTCL
cells in skin
Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma
• Largest cohort of patients with advanced MF/SS from 29 international sites• 1,275 patients
• Identifies prognostic values to help stratify advanced-stage patients
Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma
• Independent poor prognostic markers for stage IV:– Increasing age > 60– Elevated LDH– Large cell transformation in the skin as independent poor prognostic
markers
Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma
• Interleukin (IL-31), Th2 cytokine• Increased in serum of CTCL patients
• Found in IL-31 may play a role in CTCL pruritus by exerting indirect effects on sensory nerves through epidermal neoplastic T cells and keratinocytes to transmit itch
Merkel Cell Carcinoma
• Neuroendocrine carcinoma
• Linked to UV exposure and Merkel cell polyomavirus
• In the United States, the age-adjusted incidence is estimated at 0.24 per 100,000 person-years

Merkel Cell Carcinoma
• Review of Treatment
– Wide local excision is the mainstay of tx (NCCN) + SLN
– Immunotherapy with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors is a promising treatment
option for advanced or metastatic disease
– Clinical trials are currently in progress to further evaluate these novel
therapeutic agents
Merkel Cell Carcinoma
• A case of metastatic MCC with a significant response to nivolumab
–humanized IgG4 monoclonal PD-1 inhibitor
Merkel Cell Carcinoma
Merkel Cell Carcinoma
• 26 adults with advanced Merkel-cell carcinoma without previous systemic
treatment
• Pembrolizumab, PD-1 inhibitor, dosed at 2mg/kg for 3 weeks
• Objective response rate was 56%, 4 patients had a complete response, and
10 had a partial response
Summary
•Topicals remain a viable option for chemoprevention and treatment of AKs
•Hedgehog pathway inhibitors, especially itraconazole, continue to be studies for
advanced BCC
•Staging for invasive SCC continues to be utilized to help determine prognosis
•High throughput sequencing is a new diagnostic tool for CTCL
•PD-1 inhibitors may be a potential treatment option for MCC in the future
