Cutaneous metastasis from internal malignancies are common in breast cancer, pulmonary malignancies and melanomas. The primary site of metastases has been reported to the chest and abdomen. We are hereby reporting rare case of cutaneous metastasis in esophageal cancer.

Cutaneous melanoma is one of the most aggressive skin cancers originating from skin pigment cells. Patients with advanced melanoma suffer a poor prognosis and generally cannot benefit well from surgical resection and chemo/target therapy due to metastasis and drug resistance. Thus, adoptive cell therapy (ACT), employing immune cells with specific tumor-recognizing receptors, has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach to display on-tumor toxicity.

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is a rare head and neck cancer; even more infrequently, it presents as a primary lesion at other sites. Due to ACC's usual pattern of perineural and perivascular spread, it often manifests in delayed local recurrence and distant metastases. Metastasis to the kidney is very rare with as few as 15 cases reported in the literature.

BRCA1-associated protein 1 (BAP1) is a tumor suppressor gene that was first identified in 1998. Germline loss of functional variants in BAP1 is associated with a tumor predisposition syndrome with at least four cancers; uveal melanoma (UM), malignant mesothelioma (MMe), renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and cutaneous melanoma (CM). Furthermore, somatic BAP1 mutations are important drivers for several cancers most notably UM, MMe, RCC, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

VACCIMEL is a therapeutic cancer vaccine composed of four irradiated allogeneic human melanoma cell lines rationally selected to cover a wide range of melanoma tumor-associated antigens (TAA). We previously demonstrated that vaccination in the adjuvant setting prolonged the distant-metastasis-free survival of cutaneous melanoma patients and that T cells reactive to TAA and the patient's private neoantigens increased during treatment. However, immune responses directed to vaccine antigens that may arise from VACCIMEL's somatic mutations and human polymorphisms remain unexplored.

High-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (hr-cSCC) tumors exhibit aggressive behavior, leading to local recurrence, metastasis, and mortality. The management of hr-cSCC tumors is not well-defined. To clarify the impact of clinical risk factors and management strategies on disease-related outcomes (DROs) in patients with hr-cSCCs.
