Lymph Nodes in Melanoma
Outline

 • Can we better predict who is sentinel lymph node
      (SLN) positive?

 • Can we predict who has tumor in the
      non-sentinel nodes (NSLNs)
                                                      Heraclitus
 • Is there still a role for CLNDx?

Dissection
•   Historically the standard of care for patients
    with positive sentinel nodes.

•   MSLT-II: Associated with increased
    disease-fee overall survival.

•   Non-sentinel node status is an important
    prognostic factor (hazard ratio for death:
    1.78).
Faries, M. B., et al. New England Journal of Medicine 2017:23:
2211-2222.
MSLT-2: Three Questions

•Would an improved OS survival be
 seen in arm contained only patients
 with +NSNs?
•What will happen to +NSNs left in
 patients (in the era of new adjuvant
 therapies)?
•Can we predict which patients have
 +NSNs?

Findings
•   Increased tumor thickness and anatomic location (neck,groin)
    of the nodal basin were associated with metastasis in NSNs.

•   Higher numbers of harvested NSNs were associated with higher
    rates of NSN positivity (13 vs. 20, p=0.005).

•   Supports other studies: plus SLN tumor burden, GEP score (SSO
    abstract).
