Metastatic basal cell carcinoma with amplification of PD-L1: exceptional response to anti-PD1 therapy. [PDF]
Metastatic basal cell carcinomas are rare malignancies harbouring Hedgehog pathway alterations targetable by SMO antagonists (vismodegib/sonidegib). We describe, for the first time, the molecular genetics and response of a patient with Hedgehog inhibitor-

Effects of Combined Treatment With Arsenic Trioxide and Itraconazole in Patients With Refractory Metastatic Basal Cell Carcinoma. [PDF]
IMPORTANCE Tumor resistance is an emerging problem for Smoothened (SMO) inhibitor-treated metastatic basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Arsenic trioxide and itraconazole antagonize the hedgehog (HH) pathway at sites distinct from those treated by SMO inhibitors.

A Case of Metastatic Basal Cell Carcinoma Treated with Cisplatin and Adriamycin
A 72-year-old man was referred to our hospital for treatment of an ulcer that had been growing on his back for 10 years. Physical examination showed an ulcerated tumor from the neck to the back and swollen cervical lymph nodes. The tumor size was 12×9 cm.

Metastatic Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin malignancy, accounting for up to 80% of all cancers arising from the epidermis.1 The disease usually presents as a slow growing, non-healing raised lesion with rolled borders and telangiectasias. These cancers arise from cells lining the deepest layer of the epidermis.
