BCC Clinical Trial - The Efficacy & Safety of Using Intralesional

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators want to assess the safety and efficacy of using intralesional 5-FU for the management of different types of BCC (including all the types EXCEPT the infiltrative one), by estimating different outcomes after the intralesional administration of 5-FU to BCC patient. Patients are randomly selected from the outpatient dermatologic clinic in the Aleppo University Hospital (AUH) over a period of 12 months and then these patients are followed up over another 12 months.

Clinical Trial Description

Brief Description: The investigatorswant to assess the safety and efficacy of using intralesional 5-FU for the management of different types of BCC (including all the types EXCEPT the infiltrative one), by estimating different outcomes after the intralesional administration of 5-FU to BCC patient. Patients are randomly selected from the outpatient dermatologic clinic in the Aleppo University Hospital (AUH) over a period of 12 months and then these patients are followed up over another 12 months. Detailed Description: Clinicians routinely consider surgical removal as the best and sometimes the only cost-effective treatment of Basal cell carcinoma, but several studies have discussed other promising treatment approaches for BCC including 5% 5-FU cream which is indicated for the treatment of superficial BCC, in addition many studies have investigated the efficacy of the combination of 5-FU with Imiquimode or cryoablation presenting promising results, however when searching the medical literature there was only few studies dealing with types other than superficial BCC, in addition intralesional administration of 5-FU alone was not thoroughly assessed so far even though there are some studies showing positive results suggesting 5-FU to be a cost-effective alternative to surgical excision, but as these papers are asking for further studies and stronger evidence the invistigators decided to conduct this study in accordance with the best recommendations reached by latest medical literature. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
