Combined response of advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and renal cell carcinoma to immunotherapy: a case report

Description

Immunotherapy is an effective treatment strategy across different cancer types and could be a valid treatment strategy in patients with multiple malignant tumors. In this scenario, in fact, the main challenge is to choose a systemic treatment which could be active on both tumors with an acceptable toxicity profile. The authors report the clinical case of a patient with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and a disfiguring cutaneous cancer of the zygomatic region who experienced a durable response of the renal tumor and almost a complete clinical response of the cutaneous cancer.
