Filter by:An intractable plantar keratoma (IPK) is a conical thickening of the epidermis' stratum corneum and a common cause of foot pain which can have a significant, detrimental impact on the mobility, quality of life and independence of individuals. Conservative treatments are currently offered to patients with IPK, but they are unsatisfactory since they do not offer a sufficient or permanent reduction of symptoms. The purpose of this study was the evaluation of the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of innovative treatments for intractable plantar keratoma (IPK)
The KOHDIAK study is a prospective, three-armed, randomised, double-blind study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the treatment of mild and moderate actinic keratosis with a 5% potassium hydroxide solution (Solcera, medical device) versus placebo and investigator-blinded comparison with 3% diclofenac gel (Solaraze, medicinal product). It is performed in accordance with both the laws in force for clinical trials with medical devices and those with medicinal products.
Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of a thermal fractional skin treatment system (Tixel) for the treatment of facial and/or scalp actinic keratoses
The aim of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of the parent drug 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and its active metabolite protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) during photodynamic therapy with 3 tubes of BF-200 ALA 10% gel (Ameluz®) in combination with the BF-RhodoLED® lamp in the systemic circulation of diseased individuals presenting with actinic keratosis (AK) on the face/scalp or in the periphery (neck/trunk/extremities) along with subjects' safety/tolerability during and after treatment.
investigating the level of malondialdehyde (MDA) & nitric oxide (NO) in saliva in oral premalignant and malignant lesions in order to determine their diagnostic value for the malignant and potentially malignant lesions.
Aim of study: To collect data for a new image-guided diagnostic algoritm, enabling the investigators to differentiate more precisely between benign and malignant pigmented tumours at the bedside. This study will include 60 patients with four different pigmented tumours: seborrheic keratosis (n=15), dermal nevi (n=15), pigmented basal cell carcinomas (n=15), and malignant melanomas (n=15), these four types of tumours are depicted in Fig.1, and all lesions will be scanned by four imaging technologies, recruiting patients from Sept 2019 to May 2020. In vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (CM) will be used to diagnose pigmented tumours at a cellular level and provide micromorphological information5;6. Flourescent CM will be applied to enhance contrast in surrounding tissue/tumours. Optical coherence tomography (OCT), doppler high-frequency ultrasound (HIFU) and photoacustic imaging (also termed MSOT, multispectral optoacustic tomography) will be used to measure tumour thickness, to delineate tumours and analyze blood flow in blood vessels. Potential diagnostic features from each lesion type will be tested. Diagnostic accuracy will be statistically evaluated by comparison to gold standard histopathology
This is an observational longitudinal study, prospective, multicenter, performed in metropolitan France, on a representative sample of dermatologists. Data will be collected by physicians during 2 or 3 visits (according to their usual practice), from the patient file, questioning and clinical examination performed during these visits. Data about the patient's perception (satisfaction, perception of local skin reactions, quality of life) will be collected directly by the patient using self-administered questionnaires at inclusion visit, day 7 and 2 months later.
This study is open to individuals with Actinic Keratoses (skin lesions that have the potential to turn into skin cancer), who are receiving photodynamic therapy (PDT) as part of their clinical care. The purpose of this study is to test and demonstrate that vitamin D pre-treatment can enhance PDT efficacy in the treatment of Actinic Keratoses. Participants will be asked to take vitamin D supplements prior to their standard of care PDT treatment. Participation in the research will last about 3-4 months.
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Vehicle-Controlled, Multicenter Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Methyl aminolevulinate hydrochloride (MAL) 16.8% cream (CD06809-41) versus vehicle cream in the treatment of thin and moderately thick, non-hyperkeratotic, non-pigmented actinic keratosis of the face and scalp when using daylight photodynamic therapy (DL-PDT).
This is a prospective single-arm multicenter medical device study to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of the treatment of actinic keratosis with a 5% potassium hydroxide solution. In total, 68 patients with actinic keratosis grade I/II, who meet all inclusion criteria and do not meet none of the exclusion criteria are to be enrolled and topically treated twice daily for up to 3 cycles of 14 days of treatment followed by 14 non-treatment days. The primary objective is treatment success at the individual end-of-treatment visit of all AK lesions present at baseline and treated with the investigational product. Beside this, adverse events will be collected at each visit and evaluated in order to investigate clinical safety.
