Filter by:The aim of this study is to test the safety. tolerability and efficacy of field-directed photodynamic therapy (PDT) with 10% aminolevulinic acid gel (Ameluz®, BF-200 ALA) in combination with one of the narrow spectrum red light RhodoLED lamps in comparison to vehicle treatment for actinic keratosis (AK) on the extremities and neck/trunk.
This is a randomized, controlled, multi-center trial in subjects diagnosed with Actinic Keratosis (AK) where each subject serves as their own control. The trial will be conducted at 2 sites, one in Germany and one in the United States. Approximately 60 subjects will be randomized to ensure 51 subjects complete the study.
This validation study aims to develop a standardised investigator global assessment (IGA) score for keratosis pilaris and test the validity and reliability of the score through a one-day scoring exercise held at a private practice and compare it to a standard 0-4 IGA score specifically defined for keratosis pilaris.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the incidence of biopsy confirmed invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in the selected treatment field (TF) after administration of topical tirbanibulin 10 milligram (mg)/gram (g) ointment or diclofenac sodium 3 percent (%) gel over the 3-year study period.
This study focus on the efficacity of tumescent anesthesia in pain management during a photodynamic therapy on the vertex for treatment of actinic keratosis. To do this we carried out a prospective, randomized, controlled, open-ended study. Our aim is to show a 40% reduction in pain during photodynamic therapy session compared to a conventionally used analgesic method (paracetamol + cold water)
This is a prospective clinical trial in which 30 patients will receive a brief (5-day or 14-day) supplementation with 10,000 IU of Vitamin D, prior to receiving aminolevulinic acid (ALA)- blue light PDT for the treatment of actinic keratoses (AKs).
This study is being done to compare a new, continuous illumination and short Incubation time regimen of aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy#ALA-PDT) to a conventional regimen for treatment of Actinic Keratosis. The hypothesis is that the continuous illumination approach will be less or even no painful, but equally efficacious, as the old regimen.
This study is following up on previous studies that have demonstrated that geriatric subjects respond different to ultraviolet B (UVB) light than young subjects. The treatment of geriatric skin with dermal rejuvenation therapies (dermabrasion, fractionated laser resurfacing) restores the appropriate UVB response. Ongoing studies have tested the ability of fractionated laser resurfacing (FLR) to assess how long this wounding effect lasts-and have found that this appears to be a durable response which lasts for at least two years. The findings that FLR protects geriatric skin at two years is the impetus for this study. This study is an interventional study to assess if FLR treatment of one forearm of geriatric subjects with multiple actinic keratosis will result in the short-term removal of actinic keratosis, and the long-term decrease in levels of future actinic keratosis and other non-melanoma skin cancers in comparison to the untreated arm. Study length and visit: The first part of the study is completed in 1 day then there are follow up visits at 90 days and every 6 months for 5 years.
To explore the pharmacodynamics and evaluate safety, tolerability and clinical efficacy of ICVT comprised of digoxin and furosemide (dual agent), digoxin (single agent), furosemide (single agent) in patients with AK.
Background Actinic keratoses (AKs) are often treated separately, lesion by lesion. However, in the past years, AKs have been described as a field disease and not limited to single clinically apparent lesions. Treatment should therefore target an area of field change which may treat the subclinical AKs and reduce the risk of development of further AKs, second tumours, and local recurrence. Objectives The investigators sought to investigate whether field ALA-PDT of facial actinic keratosis would prevent new AKs, in comparison with a lesion area receiving the same ALA-PDT, in patients with clinical signs of field cancerization. Methods Eighty patients, previously diagnosed as having AKs of the face, were randomized distribution into two groups. 10% aminolaevulinic acid (ALA)-PDT for field treatment was on one group and for a lesion area (Vehicle control cream was applied to the non-lesion area) was on the other group. During the next 5-year period of follow up, patients were clinically evaluated for new AKs.
