Sponsor's own description

Current guidelines in management of regional lymph node metastases for cSCC patients include surgical resection with or without adjuvant therapy as well as chemotherapy and interdisciplinary management; in advanced disease, supportive and palliative care is recommended. These guidelines also define the role of SLNB in management of high-risk cSCC as unclear and suggest further studies need to determine its utility and indications11. Currently, routine practice of performing SLNB in cSCC varies across Quebec and within Canada. At many institutions, SLNB is not routinely performed on patients with cSCC. The current standard of treatment is to observe closely when a patient is deemed to have a high-risk cancer, and if they have clinical or radiological findings of lymphadenopathy, a formal surgical neck dissection is performed. Given the comorbidities and risks involved in treatment of regional lymph nodes in cSCC, the role of SLNB in cSCC patients needs further clarification. This multicentre prospective study aims to better clarify this role and formulate suggested criteria for its indications.
