Filter by:This clinical trial aims to investigate the efficacy of Calcipotriol ointment combined with 5-fluorouracil cream as an immunotherapy for actinic keratosis in Organ Transplant Recipients (OTRs) before transplantation and determine whether it can prevent cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in OTRs post-transplant.
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.
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 aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of combination calcipotriene 0.005% foam and 5% fluorouracil cream for the treatment of actinic keratoses on the scalp. The data obtained will be compared with the current standard of care, monotherapy with 5% fluorouracil cream. A recent randomized, double-blind clinical trial (NCT02019355) compared 0.005% calcipotriol ointment and fluorouracil 5% cream with Vaseline plus fluorouracil 5% cream for a 4-day treatment of actinic keratoses on the face, scalp and upper extremities. They found that calcipotriol plus 5-FU versus Vaseline plus fluorouracil 5% cream led to an 87.8% versus 26.3% mean reduction in the mean number of actinic keratoses. Our study will independently assess the effectiveness of combination treatment (calcipotriene 0.005% foam and fluorouracil 5% cream) on scalp actinic keratoses in a case series of up to 15 eligible participants. Participants will complete a 4-night application of combination treatment with follow-up immediately after and 8 weeks later.
A phase IV study of a single topical application of ALA for 3 hours or 4 hours to AK on acral sites (hands, feet, arms and legs), and subsequent measurement of clinical efficacy with corresponding PpIX fluorescence imaging.
This study is following up on previous studies that have demonstrated that geriatric subjects respond different to ultraviolet B (UVB) light than young subjects. The treatment of geriatric skin with dermal rejuvenation therapies (dermabrasion, fractionated laser resurfacing) restores the appropriate UVB response. Ongoing studies have tested the ability of fractionated laser resurfacing (FLR) to assess how long this wounding effect lasts-and have found that this appears to be a durable response which lasts for at least two years. The findings that FLR protects geriatric skin at two years is the impetus for this study. This study is an interventional study to assess if FLR treatment of one forearm of geriatric subjects with multiple actinic keratosis will result in the short-term removal of actinic keratosis, and the long-term decrease in levels of future actinic keratosis and other non-melanoma skin cancers in comparison to the untreated arm. Study length and visit: The first part of the study is completed in 1 day then there are follow up visits at 90 days and every 6 months for 5 years.
Therapeutic Equivalence of Diclofenac Sodium Gel 3% and Solaraze ®, in the treatment of Actinic Keratosis
Background Actinic keratoses (AKs) are often treated separately, lesion by lesion. However, in the past years, AKs have been described as a field disease and not limited to single clinically apparent lesions. Treatment should therefore target an area of field change which may treat the subclinical AKs and reduce the risk of development of further AKs, second tumours, and local recurrence. Objectives The investigators sought to investigate whether field ALA-PDT of facial actinic keratosis would prevent new AKs, in comparison with a lesion area receiving the same ALA-PDT, in patients with clinical signs of field cancerization. Methods Eighty patients, previously diagnosed as having AKs of the face, were randomized distribution into two groups. 10% aminolaevulinic acid (ALA)-PDT for field treatment was on one group and for a lesion area (Vehicle control cream was applied to the non-lesion area) was on the other group. During the next 5-year period of follow up, patients were clinically evaluated for new AKs.
This study evaluates the potential usefulness of photodynamic therapy with PD P 506 A in patients with actinic keratosis on the upper extremities for the first time.
