Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, and prior to 2010, outcomes were extremely poor for most patients with metastatic melanoma, where their cancer had spread to other parts of their body. Encouragingly, a class of treatments called immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) dramatically improved survival for some patients, even leading to cures in some cases. However, some patients do not respond to ICI therapy and others experience severe side-effects.
The CCTG Patient Representative Committee is pleased to welcome Deb Clark who will support the Gynecologic Disease site committee. Deb lives in Regina and her journey began when her mom was diagnosed with ovarian cancer, now a 26-year cancer survivor. Deb supported her mom as her caregiver through three additional, primary cancers and was her husband’s caregiver when he had oral cancer.
The international study CCTG MAC29 (OptimICE-pCR) is investigating whether treatment with immunotherapy versus observation in people with early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) who had a good response after initial treatment with chemotherapy and immunotherapy is really necessary.
The investigators want to determine if observation after surgery is as effective as completing 6 more months of immunotherapy in TNBC patients who have completed standard treatment including immunotherapy before surgery, and who have had a good response.
