Filter by:The purpose of this study is to test the safety of a course of injections containing Poly-ICLC in patients with advanced solid tumors that can be easily and safely reached with a needle. Poly-ICLC is a compound that has been used to help the body in its fight against cancer.
The primary objective is the observation and description of the preliminary efficacy of resiquimod gel 0.06% on a single nodular basal cell carcinoma (nBCC) in a small group of patients.
This multi-center, prospective, observational cohort study will evaluate the effectiveness, safety and utilization of treatments in patients with advanced basal cell carcinoma and basal cell carcinoma nevus syndrome. The total study duration is anticipated to be a maximum of 8 years, including 3 years for patient recruitment and 5 years follow-up.
This is a prospective single-center, open label, pilot study to investigate the safety and efficacy of LDE225 in patients with locally advanced or metastatic basal cell carcinoma. Primary Objectives: • To explore the effects of oral LDE225 on the Progression Free Survival (PFS) of individuals with locally advanced or metastatic BCC who have been previously treated with a non-LDE225 Smo inhibitor. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the effect of oral LDE225 on tumor tissue biomarkers of BCC activation (Gii 1, 2, Patched 1,2 and Ki67) in individuals which are non-na"ive to Smo inhibitors other than LDE225, at baseline and at end-of-treatment - To describe adverse effects of oral LDE225 in individuals with a history of non-LDE225 Smo inhibitor usage - To assess the overall survival rates of individuals with locally advanced BCC or metastatic BCC who have previously taken a non-LDE225 Smo inhibitor after treatment with LDE225
This was a double-blinded, randomized, vehicle-controlled study in sporadic superficial BCC (sBCC) and nodular BCC (nBCC) patients which consisted of a 21-day screening period, a treatment period of 6 weeks (topical 0.75% LDE225 cream application b.i.d) ending with post treatment biopsies, as safety visit one week after final study drug administration (Day 50), a visit on Day 83 for excision of the treated BCC, and an end of study evaluation (Day 90).
This is a prospective, randomized clinical trial conducted at the Unviersity of Wisconsin (UW) Dermatology Clinic located at 1 S. Park Street, Madison, WI 53715. There are no controls. Subjects meeting eligibility criteria are randomly divided into one of two treatment groups (ED&C x 1 cycle or ED&C x 3 cycles) using computer generated random numbers. One cycle of ED&C is defined according to standard technique currently employed. It involves scraping away the tumor with a curette (ring- shaped instrument) and then burning the curetted site with a small electric needle (electrodessication). During Visit 1, the surgical site is marked, local numbing medication is injected, and 1 or 3 cycles of ED&C is/are performed by board-certified dermatologists or a dermatology resident under the direct supervision of a board certified dermatologist. All follow-up visits (3, 6, 9, and 12 months after Visit 1) include skin evaluations by the physician who performed the ED&C. The lesion site is examined, measured, and photographed for clinical evidence of recurrence, as defined by a new lesion within the previously treated site. If there is evidence of possible tumor recurrence at the treated surgical site during Visit 2, 3, 4 or 5, then the lesion will be biopsied using a shave procedure.
The purpose of the two studies is to determine whether an experimental therapy using a photoactive drug, verteporfin, in combination with direct light exposure of basal cell carcinoma of the skin can safely eliminate these skin tumors.
