Defining the high-risk category of patients with cutaneous melanoma: a practical tool based on prognostic modeling by Oleksandr Dudin, Oleksandr Dudin, Ozar Mintser, Vitalii Gurianov, Nazarii Kobyliak, Nazarii Kobyliak, Denys Kozakov, Sofiia Livshun, Oksana Sulaieva, Oksana Sulaieva

“…IntroductionAlthough most cutaneous melanoma (CM) in its early stages is treatable, the risk of recurrence remains high and there is a particular ambiguity on patients prognosis. This drives to identification of prognostic biomarkers for predicting CM recurrence to guide appropriate treatment in patients with localized melanoma.AimThis study aimed to develop a prognostic model for assessing the risk of recurrence in patients with CM, enabling prompt prognosis-driven further clinical decision-making for high-risk patients.Materials and methodsThis case-control study included 172 patients with CM recurrence (high-risk group) and 30 patients with stable remission (low-risk group) 3 years after primary diagnosis. …”
