Merkel Cell Carcinoma
The Merkel Cell Carcinoma (MCC) Patient Registry is a national multi-institutional collaborative effort that will prospectively follow and record outcomes and events in MCC patients. MCC is the prototypical rare tumor, and this registry will trail blaze new methodologies that will enable multiple investigators to examine real-world outcome data in real time.
