The chronic use of multiple photosensitizing drugs is associated with Breslow thickness in female melanoma patients: A bicentric retrospective study

We conduct a bicentric cohort study to assess the existence of a possible association between drug-induced photosensitivity and Breslow thickness among melanoma patients. Our study suggests that women who have multiple chronic photosensitizing drugs intake are more likely to develop thicker cutaneous melanoma. Larger cohort studies are needed to confirm this finding
