This study evaluates the impact of the AAD SPOTme® skin cancer screening events on attendees' skin cancer prevention and detection behaviors. This study will also evaluate whether an educational intervention will improve post-screening engagement of attendees with dermatologists.
This early phase I pilot trial studies how well vemurafenib, cobimetinib, and atezolizumab work in treating patients with high-risk stage III melanoma. Vemurafenib and cobimetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab and tiragolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving vemurafenib, cobimetinib, and atezolizumab may work better in treating high-risk stage III melanoma. Giving atezolizumab and tiragolumab together may also work better in treating high-risk stage III melanoma.
Large full-thickness skin defects, such as those resulting from trauma, large and giant congenital nevi, disfiguring scars, or tumor resection remain major clinical problems to patients and physicians. Skin flaps and grafts represent the current standard of care (SOC), but often present limitations associated with surgical morbidity and donor site availability. The investigators will enroll 64 patients who have their skin cancer surgically removed and require reconstructive procedure such as a skin flap/graft. To objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of a nanofat-seeded biological scaffold versus the SOC in healing larger surgical defects (>1.5cm) involving the lower limb that cannot be closed by direct suture and thus need a reconstructive procedure such as a skin flap/graft.
The goal is to achieve the maximal radiotherapy tumor dose while sparing the health tissue and critical structures. On-board cone-beam CT (CBCT) scans are routinely acquired prior to dose delivery and matched with simulation CT at the planned treatment positions. Thus, setup or motion errors can be detected and corrected. However, CBCT is not available for situations with gantry collisions such as WBI and TSEB. More importantly, CBCT cannot reveal any irregular respiration or body movement during beam-on time. Thus, it is essential to develop a real-time image system that can detect organ/body motion during beam-on time, and correlate simulation-planning images with prior treatment CBCT images.In this proposed clinical trial, we will cooperate with a 3D camera company (Xigen LLC) to develop novel 4D video imaging techniques and validate the feasibility and accuracy of 4D video image guidance in correlation with 4D CT/CBCT useful for advanced IGRT.
The purpose of this study is to examine how different messages about risk of melanoma can impact the way people protect themselves against developing these diseases.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate patient satisfaction and quality of life as it relates to skin cancer surgery. This research study involves taking a one-time survey online.
This feasibility study aims to evaluate the use of the BARCO NV digital dermatoscope (non-CE marked device) in the skin cancer clinic. All eligible patients attending the Dermatology outpatient skin cancer clinic will be invited to participate. Patients who consent to the study will undergo standard care which will include medical photography of skin lesion(s) and appropriate management as determined by the Consultant Dermatologist in clinic. In addition to standard care, patients will undergo photography of the same lesion(s) using the BARCO NV digital dermatoscope. There will be no other intervention and no additional hospital visits in relation to the study. Use of the device will not influence the clinical management of the patient. A detailed experience questionnaire will be administered to all clinicians using the BARCO device to explore their opinion on its ease of use and features. All standard macroscopic & dermoscopic images will be taken by OUH medical illustration department and stored on the 'Fotoweb' database (in keeping with current standard practice). Trained Dermatology Consultants, Dermatology Registrars, Research nurses or Medical Photographers, will take BARCO NV device images. A database of all BARCO images will be collected and stored on a dedicated NHS computer separate from the patient clinical record. Standard medical photography images will be stored on Fotoweb as per standard NHS clinical care. Data will be anonymised and collated and then sent securely to BARCO for further analyses to enable optimization of the BARCO device and for development of diagnostic algorithms in the future.
Evaluation of the mechanism of Action of talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) in patients with locally advanced non-melanoma skin cancer.
1. To ensure complete elimination of lesions with maximum preservation of function and aesthetics. 2. To elaborate the Ultrasonographic features of skin cancers. 3. To determine the accuracy of HIFU to assess the margins of skin lesions and its safety margins by histopathiological examination.. 4. To follow up the patient postoperatively for incomplete excision or recurrence by clinical and HIFU examination.
