While certainly not the ORR seen in cutaneous melanoma, this combo allows for a standard of care option for patients and a possible control arm for future trials.

This tweet from @AndreasBracher gives *me* goosebumps! I agree that #ESMO22 was outstanding and am so grateful our @SWOG #S1801 data had an impact - ripples beyond #melanoma as #neoadjuvant ( #neoadjuvant é) has its moment with cSCC and @MyriamChalabi #NICHE -2 #Chalabiplot
