Is your job giving you skin cancer? italian study investigates sun exposure risk

NCT ID NCT07251335

Summary

This study aims to understand if working outdoors increases the risk of developing specific types of skin cancer (melanoma) linked to long-term sun exposure. Researchers in Modena, Italy, will interview 300 patients who have had a skin biopsy. They will compare the work and sun exposure histories of 120 people diagnosed with melanoma against 180 people without it. The goal is to better identify when melanoma should be reported as a work-related illness to improve prevention and worker compensation.
