Medical Forum’s clinical editor Dr Joe Kosterich speaks with renowned nuclear physician Dr Joe Cardaci and dermatologist A/Prof Kurt Gebauer about Oncobeta’s innovative Rhenium-Skin Cancer Therapy, which is giving new hope for Australians with non-melanoma skin cancer.
Studies show that nearly 70% of Australians are expected to have at least one non-melanoma skin cancer excised in their lifetime.
Now patients with new or recurrent lesions where there are concerns for cosmetic or functional outcomes from surgery may be suitable for this innovative epidermal radioisotope therapy.
Rhenium-SCT is a single session, non-invasive treatment that is achieving complete response rates of >95% out to two years post-treatment.
