Charlotte E. Ariyan, MD, PhD, on Metastasectomy After Immunotherapy: Is It Effective?

AACR Annual Meeting 2021

Advertisement

Charlotte E. Ariyan, MD, PhD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, discusses improved outcomes with metastasectomy in the setting of checkpoint inhibitors, with the removal of residual disease and “escape” lesions. Surgical outcomes may also be better than targeted treatments, although long-term data and biomarkers are needed to confirm these findings.
