Behind the Science: Behind Immunotherapy’s Use in Skin Cancers

Wolchok, MD, PhD, FASCO, and Barbara T. Ma, MD, MS, discuss the impact immunotherapy has had on different types of skin cancer, including melanoma and basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma, as well as the potential side effects of these drugs, and where research should turn to next.
