Clinical Trial Summary

This pilot clinical trial studies arsenic trioxide in treating patients with basal cell carcinoma. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as arsenic trioxide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stop them from dividing


Clinical Trial Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine whether administration of arsenic trioxide (ATO) to patients with basal cell carcinoma is associated with a reduction in Gli messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and protein levels in tumor biopsy samples, when compared to baseline levels.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine whether there is evidence of tumor size reduction of ATO against basal cell carcinoma in humans.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive arsenic trioxide intravenously (IV) over 2 hours on days 1-5. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. ;
