Filter by:An intractable plantar keratoma (IPK) is a conical thickening of the epidermis' stratum corneum and a common cause of foot pain which can have a significant, detrimental impact on the mobility, quality of life and independence of individuals. Conservative treatments are currently offered to patients with IPK, but they are unsatisfactory since they do not offer a sufficient or permanent reduction of symptoms. The purpose of this study was the evaluation of the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of innovative treatments for intractable plantar keratoma (IPK)
The KOHDIAK study is a prospective, three-armed, randomised, double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the treatment of mild and moderate actinic keratosis with a 5% potassium hydroxide solution (Solcera, medical device) versus placebo and investigator-blinded comparison with 3% diclofenac gel (Solaraze, medicinal product). It is performed in accordance with both the laws in force for clinical trials with medical devices and those with medicinal products.
Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of a thermal fractional skin treatment system (Tixel) for the treatment of facial and/or scalp actinic keratoses
The aim of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the parent drug 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and its active metabolite protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) during photodynamic therapy with 3 tubes of BF-200 ALA 10% gel (Ameluz®) in combination with the BF-RhodoLED® lamp in the systemic circulation of diseased individuals presenting with actinic keratosis (AK) on the face/scalp or in the periphery (neck/trunk/extremities) along with subjects' safety/tolerability during and after treatment.
investigating the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) & nitric oxide (NO) in saliva in oral premalignant and malignant lesions in order to determine their diagnostic value for the malignant and potentially malignant lesions.
This is an observational longitudinal study, prospective, multicenter, performed in metropolitan France, on a representative sample of dermatologists. Data will be collected by physicians during 2 or 3 visits (according to their usual practice), from the patient file, questioning and clinical examination performed during these visits. Data about the patient's perception (satisfaction, perception of local skin reactions, quality of life) will be collected directly by the patient using self-administered questionnaires at inclusion visit, day 7 and 2 months later.
This study is open to individuals with Actinic Keratoses (skin lesions that have the potential to turn into skin cancer), who are receiving photodynamic therapy (PDT) as part of their clinical care. The purpose of this study is to test and demonstrate that vitamin D pre-treatment can enhance PDT efficacy in the treatment of Actinic Keratoses. Participants will be asked to take vitamin D supplements prior to their standard of care PDT treatment. Participation in the research will last about 3-4 months.
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Vehicle-Controlled, Multicenter Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Methyl aminolevulinate hydrochloride (MAL) 16.8% cream (CD06809-41) versus vehicle cream in the treatment of thin and moderately thick, non-hyperkeratotic, non-pigmented actinic keratosis of the face and scalp when using daylight photodynamic therapy (DL-PDT).
This is a prospective single-arm multicenter medical device study to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of the treatment of actinic keratosis with a 5% potassium hydroxide solution. In total, 68 patients with actinic keratosis grade I/II, who meet all inclusion criteria and do not meet none of the exclusion criteria are to be enrolled and topically treated twice daily for up to 3 cycles of 14 days of treatment followed by 14 non-treatment days. The primary objective is treatment success at the individual end-of-treatment visit of all AK lesions present at baseline and treated with the investigational product. Beside this, adverse events will be collected at each visit and evaluated in order to investigate clinical safety.
The study team had plans to treat approximately 30 subjects. Each subject that had qualified had at least 4-8 visible AKs on the face and/or scalp. At Day 0, one Actinic Keratosis (AK) in the treatment area had been biopsied via a 3 mm punch. The tissue collected was sent to pathology for confirmatory diagnosis as well as genomic analysis. The remaining AKs had been identified, photographed, and documented on a transparency. One of the remaining AKs was designated as the target lesion. The patient returned to the clinic in 7 days (+/- 3) for suture removal. Approximately two weeks after Day 0, the entire treatment area was treated with imiquimod 3.75% cream. Subjects utilized the 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off, 2 weeks on regimen. Subjects were followed every 2 weeks during treatment (week 2, 4 and 6) and then at 4 and 8 weeks post last-imiquimod application (week 10 and 14). At week 14, a biopsy via a 3 mm punch was done of the target lesion. Yet, if the target lesion was no longer present, a biopsy was done at the site where the lesion was previously located.
