Characterization and Management of Hedgehog Pathway Inhibitor-Related Adverse Events in Patients With Advanced Basal Cell Carcinoma

Vismodegib and sonidegib are Hedgehog pathway inhibitors (HPIs) approved for treatment of patients with advanced basal cell carcinoma. The adverse events (AEs) associated with these therapies can impact clinical outcomes as a result of decreased quality of life and treatment discontinuation. The inc...
