Risk-Stratification using the 40-Gene Expression Profile (40-GEP) Test Identifies Patients with Node Negative Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (cSCC) at Higher Risk of Metastasis Who May Benefit from Adjuvant Radiation Therapy (ART)

Within this eligible for ART population, patients with Class 2A or 2B 40-GEP results have inferior rates of MFS, while Class 1 patients have <10% risk of metastasis. Nearly half of this population received a 40-GEP Class 1 result and could be considered for treatment de-intensification trials. Conversely, patients with low-risk BWH T1 stage, who are traditionally not considered for ART, that received a Class 2A or 2B (>10% risk of metastasis) could be considered for adjuvant therapy.
