However, a constellation of toxicities has emerged, even more remarkably, cutaneous adverse events. This report, developed by a board of Brazilian experts in oncodermatology, aims to establish a guideline for the dermatological care of oncologic patients.

Methods: Cross-sectional study, with all outpatients diagnosed with MM (N: 23), in a 12-month period, in a public hospital in the city of São Paulo, Brazil. Data collection instruments: sociodemographic and clinical assessment; European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire; Social Support Scale of Medical Outcomes Study; Instrument Religiosity Index from Duke University. Results: The quality of life was worst rated for physical (44.1; 95%CI 32.0–56.0) and role performance (41.3; 95%CI 24.0–58.6) and best rated for cognitive function (69.6; 95%CI 58.4–80.8). The emotional support was higher in affective domains (91; 95%CI 85.1–96.9) and in material domains (90.9; 95%CI 84.0–97). The intrinsic religiosity dimension obtained a high score (9.74; 95%CI 8.6–...
