Basal Cell Carcinomas Treated With Ablative Fractional Laser and Ingenol Mebutate

Carcinoma, Basal Cell Clinical Trial

Official title: Investigation of Local Skin Reactions and Safety After Combined Treatment of Basal Cell Carcinoma Using Ablative Fractional Laser and Ingenol Mebutate - an Exploratory, Prospective, Open-label Phase 2a Trial.

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

A prospective clinical, uncontrolled, open-label, explorative phase 2a trial on patients with histologically-confirmed superficial and nodular basal cell carcinoma (BCC). The study assesses tolerability and tumor clearance after laser-assisted topical delivery of topical ingenol mebutate.

Clinical Trial Description

Patients will receive ablative fractional laser (AFXl)-assisted ingenol mebutate (IM) as a treatment for their cutaneous basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Treatment areas consisting of tumors and a 5 mm margin will undergo AFXl exposure (CO2 laser) followed by IM 0.015% or 0.05% under occlusion for 2-3 days. .

local skin reactions are monitored at baseline (day1), day 3/4, day 8, day 15, day 29, day 90, and tumor response monitored at baseline, day 29, and day 90. An additional repeat AFXl-IM treatment on day 29 will be offered if tumors persist, based on clinical evaluation and imaging on day 30.

Primary outcome:

1. severity and duration of clinical local skin reactions including erythema, scaling, edema, blistering, erosion/ulceration and crusting using a 0-4-point scale at all visits from baseline to day 90.

2. To monitor BCC tumor response on clinical assessments supported by non-invasive imaging techniques including optical coherence tomography (OCT) and reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) at baseline, day 29 and day 90. ;
