Dutch Nationwide Registry Shows Large Health-System Burden and Early Progression Risk in Advanced Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The Dutch Keratinocyte Cancer Collaborative (DKCC) provides the first nationwide longitudinal real-world dataset of advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), estimating that 8% of CSCC are locally advanced and demonstrating short median times to recurrence or metastasis, substantial resource needs, and meaningful proportions of untreated metastatic episodes.

Neoadjuvant Nivolumab With or Without Low‑Dose Ipilimumab Produces High Pathologic Response and Organ Preservation in Resectable Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Results from the MATISSE Phase 2 Trial

The randomized MATISSE trial shows neoadjuvant nivolumab ± low‑dose ipilimumab yields high major/partial pathological response rates, excellent 2‑year disease‑specific survival, and enables organ preservation in many patients with resectable cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.
