Summary: The purpose of the study is to evaluate patient reported outcomes (PROs) in terms of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among subjects with actinic keratosis (AK).
Summary: Fluorouracil is recommended for the topical treatment of multiple actinic or solar keratoses. In the 5% strength, it is also useful in the treatment of superficial basal cell carcinomas when conventional methods are impractical, such as with multiple lesions or difficult treatment sites.
Summary: The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of PDT for treatment of mild to severe actinic keratosis on the face and scalp in the expanded treatment field using 3 tubes of BF-200 ALA 10% gel (Ameluz®) in conjunction with the BF-RhodoLED® XL PDT lamp.
Summary: This is a first-in-humans adaptive design open label trial to explore the safety and efficacy of SM-020. Multiple dosing cohorts will be enrolled. The first cohort will have a two-week treatment period of twice daily applications followed by a four-week follow-up period. Based on the results at any time from the first and subsequent cohorts, additional cohorts will explore different dosing regimen...
Summary: 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)
Summary: The study is a basic science research study that is designed to characterize and compare the immune response in individuals who are designated as ABO blood group secretors, meaning they have a functional copy of the FUT2 gene versus those patients who are designated ABO non-secretors after application of topical imiquimod to these patients.
Summary: Actinic cheilitis is a condition of the lower lip characterized by grayish-white areas of discoloration and blunting of the demarcation between the cutaneous lip and the mucosa.~While many studies have compared treatment options for actinic cheilitis, there is still significant debate over how to best manage this condition. The chosen treatment regimen must result in complete remission while also ...
Summary: Transient local skin reactions with topical Actinic Keratosis treatments such as 5-FluoroUracil (5-FU) often lead to non-adhesion from patients and thus to treatment failure. In regards to 5-FU treatment, these local reactions are related to the pharmacological action of the molecule. The current therapeutic challenge is to reduce the local reactions induced by 5-FU without interfering with its ef...
Summary: Squamous cell carcinomas (SCC) are the second most common skin cancer in humans. The incidence of SCCs in the USA in 2012 was estimated at 700,000 casesSCCs have a metastatic course in 3% to 5% of cases that is of poor prognosis. In men, the SCCs of the scalp represent the most frequent location of the head and neck, the 3rd location of the whole body. The SCCs of the scalp are more undifferentiat...
Summary: This phase Ib trial investigates the side effects of the combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab, and to see how well they work in treating patients with cancers that have come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) and have an increased number of genetic changes. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system at...
Summary: 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 ...
