Opinion statement The treatment of advanced melanoma has undergone a dramatic transformation over the last decade with the advent of targeted and immunomodulatory therapies. This transition from cytotoxic chemotherapy has yielded improvements in both survival and quality of life; yet despite their therapeutic advantages, these treatments have been associated with a diverse range of cutaneous adverse events (AEs). These range from relatively benign eczematous conditions to more...
Opinion statement Lymphomas are highly heterogeneous tumors and different histologies are characterized by significant differences in biology. Despite the structural and molecular differences between lymphoma types, it is well recognized that the tumor microenvironment plays a critical role in the lymphoma survival and growth. Over the past few years, understanding of this notion has brought immunotherapy to the forefront of lymphoma treatment by targeting the tumor microenvironment...
