Description:
The increased approval of anticancer agents has led to improved quality of life and longer survival times, resulting in millions of individuals living with cancer. Whereas novel drugs are responsible for these achievements, an unexpected constellation of side effects has emerged. Most notably, cutaneous toxicities are notable due to their high frequency, relative effectiveness of anti-skin toxicity interventions, and the otherwise decreasing incidence of systemic or hematopoietic adverse events. This session provides a basis for the understanding and management of dermatologic side effects in the oncology setting, in order to promote attentive care to cutaneous health in cancer patients.
