Filter by:The purpose of this study is to find out if radiation therapy (RT) guided by the new reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM)/optical coherence tomography (OCT) device is an effective treatment for basal cell carcinoma (BCC). The researchers will also look at the side effects from RT guided by the RCM/OCT device. In addition, will determine the quality of life before and after treatment by having the participant fill out questionnaires.
A hospital based cross-sectional study was conducted from 2017 to February 2021. Clinical history, examination and histopathological variants were collected from medical files and pathology reports. Confirmation of pathology was done in all the patients visiting skin and plastic surgery department with suspected lesions.
The trial is a single-center, non-randomized feasibility study aiming to evaluate the feasibility of ex-vivo tissue analysis using differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) of tissue smoke generated by the use of an electrosurgical instrument. Patients recruited in the trial receive standard-of-care basal cell carcinoma tumor excision surgery.
Phase II Clinical Trial Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of a Tissue Engineered Autologous Skin Substitute Reconstructive Surgery for Basal Cell Carcinoma
This is an intent-to-treat, split-plot design, multicenter randomized trial and the primary intervention is a double-blind comparison of Imiquimod (IMQ) vs. placebo cream for preventing basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the skin on the face at one year and over 3 years after therapy. Participants will apply the IMQ or placebo cream to the face daily at bedtime for 12 weeks. This study will recruit 1630 Veterans at high risk of BCC from 17 VA medical centers.
A double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled intervention trial on patients with actinic keratosis.
This is a 2-part, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation, proof-of-concept study with a safety run-in designed to assess the safety, tolerability, MTD, and objective antitumor efficacy of ascending dose strengths of VP-315 when administered intratumorally to adults with biopsy proven basal cell carcinoma (BCC). The study is expected to enroll approximately 80 subjects with a histological diagnosis of BCC in at least 1 eligible target lesion (confirmed by punch or shave biopsy).
The primary objects of this study is to explore the potential effect of the autologous patch to optimize wound healing after skin cancer surgery with Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) in the face in a randomized controlled trial comparing autologous patch healing versus secondary intention healing.
This study will be a multicenter, prospective, open label, one-arm study intended to assess the Safety and Efficacy of EscharEx (EX-02) in the treatment of Basal Cell Carcinoma. In patients with one primary superficial or nodular basal cell carcinoma lesion with a diameter of 5-10mm (Histologically confirmed BCC) located on the trunk or upper extremities (not including the hands), with well-defined borders and no previous radiation therapy.
This pilot study will examine the treatment of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) with laser technology under the guidance of imaging modalities to assist with surgical excision, including optical coherence tomography imaging (OCT) and reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM). The laser modality that we plan to use is the long-pulse Nd:YAG 1064nm laser, which is a nonablative laser already shown to effectively treat BCC. The addition of OCT and RCM has the opportunity to enhance outcomes by better targeting the treatment and permitting more precise monitoring of clearance. OCT is being used to enhance the effectiveness of Mohs Micrographic Surgery of these cancers by elucidating more definitive tumor margins. RCM has been shown to detect changes in the composition of cells consistent with BCC. We propose to use these imaging devices to guide the laser treatment to achieve optimal efficacy with minimized side-effects. Primary outcome measured include complete clearance of the BCC lesion, which will be determined through clinical examination, dermoscopy, imaging (OCT and/or RCM), and saucerization biopsy. Secondary outcome variables include the significance of lesion depth (by OCT and/or RCM), lateral extent (by OCT and/or RCM), BCC type, and anatomical region on rate of clearance and recurrence.
