Multivariate analysis of prognostic factors in patients with nodular melanoma

L. Susok et al.

Summary: When compared to SSM patients, NM patients are more likely to have higher Clark levels, thicker tumors, less tumor regression, more frequently ulcerated tumors, and less likely precursor lesions such as nevi. NM patients have significantly higher rates of disease relapse and death within a 5-year follow-up. On multivariate analysis, tumor thickness and positive SLNB predict disease relapse in NM patients, while male sex and tumor thickness predict melanoma-specific death in NM patients. Histologic regression also remains a significant independent negative predictor of NM death.

Five-year survival in patients with nodular and superficial spreading melanomas in the US population

Blair S. Allais et al.

Summary: The 5-year relative survival rate is lower in nodular melanomas (NM) compared with superficial spreading melanomas (SSM) at the same Breslow depth and TNM stage, especially in T1b, T2a, and T2b melanomas. Melanoma subtype should be taken into consideration when making treatment recommendations.
