Immunotherapy is now a highly efficacious management tool for melanoma, including in resectable stage III/IV disease, where its use is supported by phase 3 evidence and current practice guidelines. This “Clinical Consults” activity, taken from a recent surgical oncology live event, features expert-led case discussions that illustrate how to deliver effective care with established and emerging immune-based modalities in surgical settings. Linked mini lecture segments cover topics such as adjuvant immunotherapy in stage II/III melanoma; efficacy, safety, and dosing information on neoadjuvant immunotherapy; and emerging immune-based treatments in resectable melanoma (eg, PD-1/LAG-3 combinations). Watch today to learn how to identify optimal candidates for immunotherapy, address treatment selection and dosing considerations, and effectively manage immune-related events. Upon completion of this activity, participants should be better able to: State current evidence and guideline recommendations surrounding the use of adjuvant and neoadjuvant immunotherapy for resectable or potentially resectable melanoma, including stage II, III, and IV disease; Develop a treatment plan that includes adjuvant and neoadjuvant immunotherapeutic options for patients with resectable melanoma, including those with and without BRAF-mutant disease; and Implement strategies to mitigate immune-related adverse events in patients with melanoma who are receiving immunotherapy in conjunction with surgery.
