Year: 2020
Type: article
Abstract: and Conclusion• In advanced CSCC patients, treatment with cemiplimab resulted in clinically meaningful reduction in pain as early as cycle 3 with maintenance of effect through cycle 12.• Improvement in global health status/HRQL was observed as early as cycle 3 with clinically meaningful improvement seen by cycle 12.• By cycle 6, the majority of patients experienced clinically meaningful improvement or stability in global health status/HRQL and functional status, while maintaining a low symptom burden.• These results further support cemiplimab as a new standard of care option in the treatment of advanced CSCC.
