“The algorithm that we developed is not meant to challenge these established guidelines.

Key Points: 
  • “The algorithm that we developed is not meant to challenge these established guidelines.
  • In the study, three private-practice Mohs surgeons, who routinely use the test to risk-stratify their high-risk cSCC patients, merged their management approaches for three real-world, high-risk cSCC patients into a singular algorithm that provides a framework for incorporating each of the test’s three potential results into current NCCN guidelines.
  • In all three cases presented in the study, use of the algorithm incorporating DecisionDx-SCC test results led to no evidence of disease recurrence or metastasis post-treatment, based on the timing described in the study.
  • The study findings support the use of DecisionDx-SCC test results within established guidelines to enable personalized, risk-aligned management of high-risk cSCC patients and the allocation of healthcare resources to patients at the highest risk of a poor outcome.
