Filter by:This was a 3-cohort, open-label study of vismodegib (GDC-0449) in new (non-recurrent) operable basal cell carcinoma of the nodular subtype.
This is an open-label, non-comparative, multicenter, expanded access study of Vismodegib (GDC-0449) in patients with locally advanced basal cell carcinoma (BCC) or metastatic BCC (mBCC) who are otherwise without satisfactory treatment options.
This pilot clinical trial studies L-lysine in treating oral mucositis in patients undergoing radiation therapy with or without chemotherapy for head and neck cancer. L-lysine may lessen the severity of oral mucositis, or mouth sores in patients receiving radiation therapy with or without chemotherapy for head and neck cancer
Basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) are the most common human cancer in the US and affect over 1 million people. There is no effective drug to prevent basal cell carcinomas of the skin. We hope to learn if an oral anti-fungal drug, itraconazole, might inhibit a marker of proliferation and a biomarker (tumor signaling pathway) of BCC development. Itraconazole is an FDA-approved drug for the treatment of fungal infections of the skin, and has been used for the past 25 years with relatively few side effects. It has been shown in mice to reduce a BCC biomarker and to reduce growth of BCCs. Thus, it may reduce BCC growth in humans.
This first-in-human dose-escalation study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of LEQ506 given orally on a daily dosing schedule in patients with advanced solid tumors.
This was a double-blinded, randomized, vehicle-controlled study in sporadic superficial BCC (sBCC) and nodular BCC (nBCC) patients which consisted of a 21-day screening period, a treatment period of 6 weeks (topical 0.75% LDE225 cream application b.i.d) ending with post treatment biopsies, as safety visit one week after final study drug administration (Day 50), a visit on Day 83 for excision of the treated BCC, and an end of study evaluation (Day 90).
The objective of this study is to record recurrence in patients treated for nonmelanoma (basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas) skin cancer using the Xoft Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System. Additional objectives include evaluate the appearance of the treated area in patients treated for nonmelanoma skin cancer using the Xoft Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System and record the occurrence of radiation therapy related skin changes in patients treated for nonmelanoma skin cancer.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of photodynamic therapy in treatment of Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and factors that affect response rate.
The Dermacorder measures the electric field in the skin. Malignant skin lesions disrupt the skin's normal electric field and this abnormal electric field can be detected by the Dermacorder. Therefore the investigators are testing the hypothesis that the Dermacorder can provide useful data to guide in the diagnosis of skin disease.
This is a prospective, randomized clinical trial conducted at the Unviersity of Wisconsin (UW) Dermatology Clinic located at 1 S. Park Street, Madison, WI 53715. There are no controls. Subjects meeting eligibility criteria are randomly divided into one of two treatment groups (ED&C x 1 cycle or ED&C x 3 cycles) using computer generated random numbers. One cycle of ED&C is defined according to standard technique currently employed. It involves scraping away the tumor with a curette (ring- shaped instrument) and then burning the curetted site with a small electric needle (electrodessication). During Visit 1, the surgical site is marked, local numbing medication is injected, and 1 or 3 cycles of ED&C is/are performed by board-certified dermatologists or a dermatology resident under the direct supervision of a board certified dermatologist. All follow-up visits (3, 6, 9, and 12 months after Visit 1) include skin evaluations by the physician who performed the ED&C. The lesion site is examined, measured, and photographed for clinical evidence of recurrence, as defined by a new lesion within the previously treated site. If there is evidence of possible tumor recurrence at the treated surgical site during Visit 2, 3, 4 or 5, then the lesion will be biopsied using a shave procedure.
