Filter by:The purpose of the potential research study participant registry is to keep potential research subjects informed about any future research studies in which they may meet the criteria for enrollment. The purpose of this study is also to assist current and future clinical trials with recruitment of subjects.
This Phase IIb study is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of 0.005%, 0.01% and 0.015% PEP005 Topical Gel when applied to an area of skin, containing 4-8 AK lesions on the face or scalp.
The purpose of this research study is to measure adherence to the study drug (Carac) for the treatment of actinic keratoses.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the use of Biafine Cream on wounds created by removal of actinic keratosis using cryotherapy in a clinical setting.
Study Hypothesis: Safety and Tolerability will differ when treating multiple contiguous 25 cm2 treatment areas, as compared to individual 25 cm2 treatment areas.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether imiquimod creams are effective in treating Actinic Keratoses when applied to the face or balding scalp. Actinic keratosis (AK) is a skin condition that shows up on skin routinely exposed to the sun, such as the face, scalp, shoulders, chest, back, arms, and hands. The active ingredient contained in the study cream for this study is the same as that of the approved product Aldara, which has shown to be safe and effective for the treatment of AKs.
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and toleration of PEP005 Topical Gel, administered on an actinic keratosis (AK) treatment area on the top of a hand.
Patients on immunosuppressive therapy, e.g. organ recipients, have a higher occurrence of AK than the untreated population. Keratotic lesions (i.e. AK lesions and warts) in this population is highly associated with development of SCC also with 10 times higher mortality rate because of SCC than expected. The risk of developing skin cancer, predominantly SCC and BCC, increases with graft survival time and the length of immunosuppressive treatment period. The higher risk of developing skin malignancy and more aggressive skin malignancies in this population, indicate the need for early removal of these pre-malignant lesions. In this study, two contralateral areas (5x10 cm2) with skin lesions within the patient will be compared. One area will receive Metvix PDT at defined intervals and the other will receive lesion specific treatment at the discretion of the investigator. The primary end-point will be the accumulated number of new lesions during the study and number of AK lesions that show complete response 3 months after baseline. Secondary endpoints will be number of BCC lesions that show complete response, number of recurrent lesions, assessment of cosmetic outcome and safety.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether topical application of PEP005 is safe for the treatment of actinic keratoses.
Treatment of actinic keratosis with imiquimod cream is expected to cause changes in the genes that are turned on, and turned off, by skin cells. Some of the drug induced changes in skin cells should also be visible using a special microscope. This study examines both types of changes.
