138 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Part I is designed as a study of P-MNA application in healthy human volunteers. The goal of Part I is to determine several factors possibly affecting the rate and extent of microneedle array dissolution, such as anatomic location; age; duration of array exposure to the skin; and the criticality of proper array application to the skin. Part II will be a randomized study in which doxorubicin-containing arrays will be applied to subjects demonstrated by biopsy to have basal cell cancer. A subject will be randomized to one of four dose groups: placebo microneedle array and 50 µg, 100 µg, and 200 µg doses of doxorubicin in a tip-loaded, dissolvable microneedle arrays (D-MNA).
Randomized coomparative trial of a 30% solution of ascorbic acid in 95% dimethylsulfoxide applied topically twice a day for 8 weeks vs 5% imiquimod cream in the treatment biopsy proven basal cell carcinomas inotherwise healthy adult patients. Outcome measure was biopsy proven resolution of the carcinoma.
This phase 2 trial studies how well remetinostat works in treating patients with skin basal cell cancer. Remetinostat may slow the growth of basal cell cancer cells.
This phase 0 trial studies how well itraconazole gel works in treating patients with basal cell cancer. Itraconazole gel may help to treat basal cell tumors in patients.
This study explores the best dose of the combination treatment for subjects with advanced unresectable or metastatic basal-like subtype pancreatic adenocarcinoma. For that reason, the safety, efficacy, and tolerability, as well as preliminary estimates of anti-tumor effects of low-dose epidermal growth factor receptor EGFR inhibitors in combination with bi-weekly gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel (GnP) will be examined in subjects with advanced basal-like pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The Purity Independent Subtyping of Tumors (PurIST) will determine the type of cancer either "basal type" or "classical". If cancer subtype-based first-line chemotherapy in combination with erlotinib will be safe and tolerable in subjects with advanced unresectable or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma of the basal-like subtype as defined by PurIST, as well as provide a preliminary assessment of treatment response in basal-like subjects. This study will also follow a subset of subjects with classical subtypes that are treated per standard of care on oxaliplatin-based triplet chemotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether injecting ALA into the skin with a jet-injection device and activating the drug with light is a safe treatment that causes few or mild side effects in people with basal cell carcinoma.
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 test the safety of a course of injections containing Poly-ICLC in patients with advanced solid tumors that can be easily and safely reached with a needle. Poly-ICLC is a compound that has been used to help the body in its fight against cancer.
This was a Phase II, single-arm, two-cohort multicenter clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of vismodegib (GDC-0449) in patients with advanced basal cell carcinoma. All patients received vismodegib until evidence of progression, intolerable toxicities most probably attributable to vismodegib, or withdrawal from the study.
This phase 1-2 trial studies how well pembrolizumab with or without vismodegib works in treating patients with skin basal cell cancer that has spread to other places in the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, are checkpoint inhibitors that stimulate immune response. Vismodegib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking signals needed for cell growth.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as tazarotene, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is comparing two different schedules of topical tazarotene and topical placebo to see how well they work in treating patients with basal cell skin cancer and basal cell nevus syndrome on the chest.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as tazarotene, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying topical tazarotene to see how well it works in treating patients with basal cell skin cancer and basal cell nevus syndrome on the face.
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as imiquimod cream, work in different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop tumor cells from growing. PURPOSE: This randomized phase I trial is studying how well imiquimod cream works in treating patients with basal cell skin cancer.
RATIONALE: Photodynamic therapy uses light and drugs that make cancer cells more sensitive to light to kill tumor cells. Photosensitizing drugs such as HPPH are absorbed by cancer cells and, when exposed to light, become active and kill the cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of photodynamic therapy with HPPH in treating patients who have basal cell skin cancer.
This is a Phase 1, multiple dose, ascending dose escalation study to define a MTD/RD and regimen of XmAb20717, to describe safety and tolerability, to assess PK and immunogenicity, and to preliminarily assess anti-tumor activity of XmAb20717 in subjects with selected advanced solid tumors.
The main purpose of this study is to see if 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) skin cream can prevent the growth of new skin cancers on the face and ears. The cost of trying to prevent skin cancer will be compared to the usual cost of treating skin cancer. Participants are being asked to be a part of this study because the participants have been treated for two or more skin cancers within the past five (5) years. At least one of these cancers occurred on the face or ears. Having had two or more skins cancers in the past 5 years makes it likely that participants will develop additional skin cancers in the future. Exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun or artificial sources such as tanning beds is a major cause of basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma of the skin. Using lotions, creams, or gels that contain sunscreens can help protect the skin from premature aging and damage that may lead to skin cancer. The 5-FU skin cream used in this study is FDA-approved to treat some types of skin cancers and spots that might become skin cancer. However, 5-FU skin cream has never been studied to see if it can prevent skin cancer. This drug is not approved by the FDA for how it will be used in this study. In this study, one half of the patients will use the 5-FU cream and the other half will use a skin cream that looks identical to the 5-FU cream but does not have 5-FU or any other active drug in it. Approximately twelve VA medical centers will work together in this study. About one thousand (1000) patients will be in this study. The study is sponsored by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Cooperative Studies Program.
This is a 2-part, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation, proof-of-concept study with a safety run-in designed to assess the safety, tolerability, MTD, and objective antitumor efficacy of ascending dose strengths of VP-315 when administered intratumorally to adults with biopsy proven basal cell carcinoma (BCC). The study is expected to enroll approximately 80 subjects with a histological diagnosis of BCC in at least 1 eligible target lesion (confirmed by punch or shave biopsy).
To evaluate safety and efficacy of AIV001 treatment on low-risk Nonmelanoma Skin Caner of the basal cell carcinoma subtype.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical validity of the proprietary DermaSensor Elastic Scattering Spectroscopy (ESS) device and classifier algorithm to support assessment of skin lesions suggestive of melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and/or squamous cell carcinoma in the primary care setting.
The goal of this observational study is to study blood samples and compare them to other biospecimens and clinical outcomes in participants who have melanoma or non-melanoma skin cancers. The main question it aims to answer is: * Are blood based signatures able to predict progression-free survival (PFS)? Participants undergoing regular treatment for their skin cancer will provide blood samples.
The goal of this observational study is to find out if Raman Spectroscopy, a type of imaging, can be used to determine the size of skin cancer tumors. The main question it aims to answer is: -Can Raman Spectroscopy help figure out how far a tumor spreads? This study will take measurements using laser light from an experimental, handheld probe by lightly touching the skin.
This phase II trial tests the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab with sirolimus and prednisone for the treatment of skin (cutaneous) cancer that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) or that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic) in kidney transplant recipients. Immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Sirolimus and prednisone are immunosuppressants that are given to keep the body from rejecting the transplanted kidney. Giving nivolumab and ipilimumab in combination with sirolimus and prednisone may kill more cancer cells, while also keeping the transplanted kidney healthy, in patients with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous cancer who have received a kidney transplant.
Participants of this study will have a diagnosis of a solid tumor cancer that has come back to its original location or spread beyond its original location (advanced), came back (relapsed) or worsened (refractory) after standard treatments, or no standard treatments are available for the participants' cancer. The purpose of this study if to find the highest dose of MQ710 that causes few or mild side effects in participants with a solid tumor cancer diagnosis.
The purpose of this study is to compare how well tolerated and effective four different dosing schedules (two personalized, intermittent dosing schedules as compared to a fixed intermittent and continuous dosing regimen) work in people with advanced basal cell carcinoma.
The investigators will conduct a single-arm pilot feasibility trial of mentored community gardening for melanoma survivors integrating dosimeters and accelerometers. Harvest for Health Together Arizona (H4H2-AZ) is an evidence-based program adapted for arid desert gardening that also addresses sun safety through group workshops and peer education. The primary aim is to evaluate adherence to the intervention.
This is an open label, multicenter, phase 1/2 study to assess the safety/tolerability and preliminary clinical activity of STAR0602 as a single agent administered intravenously in participants with advanced solid tumors that are antigen-rich.
The purpose of this study is to find out more about how Basal Cell Carcimonas/BCCs grow and to learn more effective ways to monitor and treat these common cancers. This study will not provide any type of treatment for the participants' cancer; it is a 3-year observational study to monitor participants' cancer.
The investigators will compare the application of two different creams for the treatment of low-risk skin cancers-superficial basal cell carcinoma (sBCC) and squamous cell carcinoma in situ (SCCis). 5-Fluorouracil cream is currently FDA approved for the treatment of superficial basal cell carcinoma and is routinely used by dermatologists across the country and at Boston Medical Center (BMC) for SCCis. The normal treatment regimen is 4 weeks of the 5-fluorouracil cream for both skin cancers. The application of a compounded cream consisting of 1:1 ratio 5-fluorouracil with calcipotriene will be tested. This combination cream has been shown to clear pre-skin cancers called actinic keratoses and prevent future skin cancers from developing. This combination cream for 7-14 days to see if this shorter treatment course provides clearance of the 2 types of skin cancer. This combination cream is successfully used in this manner to treat other subtypes of related skin cancers. This will be a pilot study with The primary endpoint for this pilot randomized single blinded clinical trial will be the response to treatment (yes versus no). The lesions will be assessed clinically for clearance of cancer, as would normally be done and is consistent with how comparable studies have assessed clearance. Participants will be followed closely afterwards for three years with visits at 6 months, which does not vary from standard practice. If the lesions are not clear of cancer or equivocal clinically, the lesions will be re-biopsied and normal standard of care procedure will take place.
This is an intent-to-treat, parallel design, multicenter randomized trial and the primary intervention is a double-blind comparison of Imiquimod (IMQ) vs. placebo cream for preventing basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the skin on the face at one year and over 3 years after therapy. Participants will apply the IMQ or placebo cream to the face daily at bedtime for 12 weeks. This study will recruit 1630 Veterans at high risk of BCC from 17 VA medical centers.
One hundred patients will receive IFx-Hu2.0 on an outpatient basis at a single time point in a single lesion. These patients will be assessed for any immediate adverse reactions and at Week 4 (Day 28+/-5 days) for any delayed adverse events..
