Filter by:This clinical trial aims to investigate the efficacy of Calcipotriol ointment combined with 5-FU cream in Organ Transplant Recipients (OTRs) to determine if it can stimulate the immune cells against actinic keratoses precancerous skin lesions after transplantation and prevent cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in long-term.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use of locally injected tranexamic acid (TXA) under the skin during Mohs micrographic surgery for removal of skin cancers in patients on anticoagulation. TXA may be helpful in reducing bleeding and pain during surgery, and may also lead to fewer post-operative complications following surgery such as graft loss, specifically in patients on blood-thinners.
Observational study to know the relevance of specific anatomical location of cutaneous melanoma on lower limbs.
This trial studies how well an interactive survivorship program works in improving healthcare resources in adolescent and young adult cancer survivors. By improving access to survivorship resources, health literacy, self-management skills, and support, an interactive survivorship program may help to improve adherence to adolescent and young adult healthcare guidelines and reduce cancer-related distress.
In this study, we compared a negative pressure wound therapy, versus a conventional dressing in order to evaluate the most efficient wound therapy closure after axillary and inguinal lymph nodes dissections in the management of metastatic skin tumors. A vacuum assisted closure therapy should prevent these comorbidities.
Background: The worldwide incidence of skin cancer has been rising for 50 years, in particular the incidence of malignant melanoma has increased approx. 2-7% annually and is the most common cancer amongst Danes aged 15-34. Currently there is a significant amount of misdiagnosis of skin cancer and mole cancer. Our aim is to improve general practitioners' diagnostic skills and accuracy of skin and mole cancer. Research questions: In a population of Danish General Practitioners (GPs) what is the dose/response effect of hours spent with an educational platform that offers AI augmented training and clinical feedback on their diagnostic accuracy and accurate clinical management (treatment, dismissal, referral)? Does access to an educational platform that offers AI augmented training and clinical feedback increase the number of malignant skin lesions referred by Danish GPs without simultaneously increasing the number of incorrect benign referrals? Can the participating GPs clinical accuracy be predicted from the MCQ-score by comparing their quiz answers and diagnostic accuracy on their registered lesions with their score on the MCQ? Method: 90 Danish GPs will at baseline, 1 month and end of trial answer a Multiple Choice Questionnaire (MCQ). There is no change to current clinical practice, but all participating doctors will be asked to register a clinical picture and a dermoscopic image as well as basic information about the lesion and patient (age, gender, location and diagnosis) of all skin lesions examined due to a suspicion for non-melanoma or melanoma skin cancer, raised by the GP or patient. GPs in the intervention group are besides the registration application (R-app) given access to an AI augmented training and clinical feedback through an educational smartphone app (E-app). Within the E-app the doctor can access quizzes on a library of 10,000+ skin lesions, written articles about the 40 most common skin lesions, and a clinical feedback module that gives the GP feedback on their registered skin lesions. Feedback on skin lesions with the registered clinical management of referred/excised/biopsied will be provided continuously by independent experts in skin cancer diagnostics (>10 years of experience) through a web-based review system developed by our group. Feedback on the remaining registered cases are withheld until the end of the study period. This is done to simulate a realistic clinical setting during the study.
The goal of this pilot study is to develop and test a couple-based intervention to increase sun protection practices. First, the investigators will develop the intervention website, Sun Safe Partners online. Next, the investigators will gather feedback and preferences for content in a small sample of couples who do not regularly engage in sun protection practices. The investigators will also gather preliminary information regarding the impact of the couple-based intervention.
A unique approach for cancer treatment employing intratumoral diffusing alpha radiation emitter device for superficial cutaneous, mucosal or soft tissue neoplasia
The aim objective of this work is to assess the characteristics of patients for whom teledermoscopy could be suitable for the detection of potential skin cancers, within a population of rural general medicine in the South of Hainaut, by means of a mixed quantitative and qualitative study corresponding respectively: - To identify patients' knowledge of skin cancers, their skin monitoring habits, and their acceptability of new telemedicine tools such as teledermoscopy ("Part 1"). - To evaluate the satisfaction and expectations of those who benefit from teledermoscopy ("Part 2").
