Filter by:The goal of this study is to learn if giving cemiplimab and vidutolimod together could be effective in treating advanced cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How many participants' cancers respond to vidutolimod together with cemiplimab? - Is vidutolimod together with cemiplimab safe and well-tolerated? - How well does vidutolimod together with cemiplimab treat participants' cancer? Participants will receive trial treatment for up to 2 years. 30 days after stopping treatment, participants will have a follow-up visit. After that visit, the trial staff will continue to follow up with participants about every 3 months, until the trial ends.
The primary objective is to confirm the safety of treating multiple BCCs once weekly x 3 weeks in individuals with Basal Cell Nevus Syndrome (BCNS). The secondary objectives of the study are to obtain preliminary data on the effectiveness of ASN-002 in the treatment of BCCs in individuals with Basal Cell Nevus Syndrome (BCNS) by 1. evaluating the histological clearance of BCCs in patients with BCNS, and 2. assessing the clinical changes of BCCs after treatment with ASN-002, and 3. assessing the systemic effect of ASN-002 by determining response in non-injected lesions 4. assess the safety and clinical changes after a second cycle of ASN-002 injections
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most frequent skin cancer. Uncontrolled growth destroys local anatomic structures. There are various treatment alternatives with different recurrence rates and expenses. After surgical excision, the recurrence rate is in between 3 and 4% and the procedure is relatively expensive. Photodynamic therapy as well as imiquimod 5% are expensive therapies with high recurrence rates, that lack histologic evidence of BCC. Cryosurgery and curettage are inexpensive, although the recurrence rates are higher than after surgical excision. This prospective, randomized trial compares recurrence rates, cosmetic outcome, and surgery-related complications after curettage versus surgical excision in nodular and superficial BCC. About 600 tumors will be included. One half is treated by curettage, the other half by surgical excision. The follow-up period is four years. If the difference between recurrence rates is ≤7% and the cosmetic outcome as well as the surgery-related complications are not worse after curettage, surgical excision must be considered an overtreatment.
