Vismodegib is approved for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic (mBCC) or locally advanced basal cell carcinoma (laBCC) that have recurred following surgery or for those who are not good candidates for surgery (risk/benefit ratio is against patient's benefit, either because of the general condition or because of the expected morbidity from the surgery) or radiation therapy. This article provides an evidence-based review of its current place in therapy. Analytically, the clinical implications in the management of laBCCs and mBCCs and possible new indications, including the neoadjuvant use before surgical excision, are discussed, while in the end, the challenges regarding class-related adverse events and their optimal management are highlighted.
维莫德吉被批准用于治疗成年转移性基底细胞癌(mBCC)或局部晚期基底细胞癌(laBCC)患者,这些患者在手术后复发,或者那些不适合手术的患者(风险/获益比不利于患者,原因可能是患者的一般状况,或者是手术预期的发病率)或放射治疗。本文对其当前在治疗中的地位进行了循证综述。从分析的角度,讨论了laBCC和mBCC管理中的临床意义以及可能的新适应症,包括手术切除前的新辅助使用,最后强调了与该类药物相关的不良事件及其最佳管理方面的挑战。
