Chemoprevention of Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Its Precursors in Solid Organ Transplant Recipients Using Topical Sirolimus: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Pilot Trial
Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology(2022)
Abstract
To the Editor: Immunosuppression in solid organ transplant recipients (SOTR) greatly increases the risk of keratinocyte cancer (KC), indisputably a significant burden in terms of morbidity, mortality, and cost. Switching calcineurin inhibitors to sirolimus is a major strategy that has resulted in a two-fold reduction in the risk of squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) but is poorly tolerated with many serious adverse events.1,2
