Clinical Trial Summary

Basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) are the most common human cancer in the US and affect over 1 million people. There is no effective drug to prevent basal cell carcinomas of the skin.

We hope to learn if an oral anti-fungal drug, itraconazole, might inhibit a marker of proliferation and a biomarker (tumor signaling pathway) of BCC development.

Itraconazole is an FDA-approved drug for the treatment of fungal infections of the skin, and has been used for the past 25 years with relatively few side effects. It has been shown in mice to reduce a BCC biomarker and to reduce growth of BCCs.

Thus, it may reduce BCC growth in humans.


Clinical Trial Description

Participants with at least one BCC tumor measuring 4 mm or greater in diameter will be enrolled onto 1 of 2 treatment cohorts to receive oral itraconazole.

- Cohort A - 400 mg itraconazole (as 200 mg twice daily for 30 days), stratified by:

- Cohort A1 - Participants are vismodegib-naive.

- Cohort A2 - Participants had received prior vismodegib treatment.

- Cohort B - 200 mg itraconazole (as 100 mg twice daily, for up to 4 months). The objective of this cohort is to assess the anti-cancer efficacy of lower-dose extended treatment.

- Control Group - Tumors from untreated participants. ;
