P24 - Cutaneous Cancers and Cutaneous Lymphomas

STRENGTHS IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS

Cancer Care

Skin cancers are managed in 2 dematology departments (Saint Louis Hospital and Bichat Hospital).

Saint Louis Hospital has a structure dedicated to outpatient management of skin cancers: the dermato-oncology department.

All types of skin cancer (melanoma, carcinoma, cutaneous sarcoma and lymphoma) are referred and discussed in Multidisciplinary Tumor Board (MTB) with common guidelines.

Each department manages on-site surgical, medical (immunotherapy, target therapy and chemotherapy) and palliative treatments.

Saint Louis Hospital has a non-invasive cutaneous imaging platform with videodermoscopy, which is used in patients with high risk of melanoma.

Saint Louis Hospital coordinates at the national level three biobanks (melanoma, lymphoma and rare carcinoma) and develops active translational research and basic research.

Both centers enroll patients in phase III trials.

Saint Louis Hospital has developed access to innovative therapies in phase I and II.

There are strong interactions between these two dermatology departments (Saint Louis and Bichat Hospital) regarding patients with common toxicity multidisciplinary board, enrollment in early trials and recourse multidisciplinary board.

 

Multidisciplinarity:

  • Five MDT meetings (weekly) and one MTB (monthly)
  • Recourse national MDT
    • SLS and BCH actively participates to the following national MDT for rare skin tumors on a monthly or every 2 months basis
    • CARADERM: rare cutaneous carcinoma (http://www.caraderm.org) mostly for adnexal tumors
    • VIROGREF: rare cutaneous cancers in transplant recipients (https://www.k-virogref.org)
    • GFELC: cutaneous lymphoma (https://www.gfelc.org)

Education

Solid tumors

At the national level, the teams participate to national congresses and drafts recommendations of national scope. At the international level, CME in international congresses can be mentioned (EADO every year, ESMO 2018, EADV 2021, SCOPE 2020) as well as the coordination and writing of European guidelines (ESMO, EADO). In addition to this, we also give courses and organize national and international congresses (JDP, EADO 2019, ESDO every year).

Cutaneous lymphomas:

Organization of meetings

The EORTC Cutaneous Lymphoma Group meetings 2014 (Paris) and 2021 (Marseille) hosted by SLS.
