Sponsor's own description

The overall aim of this national, multicenter, prospective, randomized, and controlled study is to enhance the management of patients with thin melanoma (≤1 mm Breslow thickness). The investigators hypothesize that wide local excisions (WLEs) following complete excision of thin melanoma do not affect the risk of recurrence, defined as the occurrence of local, regional, distant disease, or melanoma-specific death during a 5- to 10-year follow-up period.
