Background: Novel oncologic therapies, including epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors (EGFR-Is) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), are associated with a new spectrum of adverse reactions, with prominent cutaneous toxicities. The impact of cutaneous adverse events (cAEs) on patients' quality of life (QoL) represents an unmet clinical need.
Objectives: The aims of this study were (1) to assess whether cutaneous toxicities directed therapies are effective in reducing the QoL burden via the submission of 2 patient reported outcome measures (PROMs); (2) to investigate whether class of oncologic therapy, type of cAE and toxicity severity differently impact on patients' QoL.

Showing features of pyogenic granuloma (PG) and of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS), it was initially named KS-like PG and considered benign. It is now considered a true KS and was renamed PG-like KS due to the clinical course and the presence of human herpes virus-8 DNA.
