A Study on Radiation Therapy Guided by the Reflectance Confocal Microscopy (RCM)/Optimal Coherence Tomography (OCT) Device in People With Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal Cell Carcinoma
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Basal Cell Carcinoma focused on measuring Radiation Therapy, Reflectance Confocal Microscopy (RCM)/Optimal Coherence Tomography (OCT), 20-553
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
Biopsy proven basal cell carcinoma
°Up to 3 tumors per patient can be treated per protocol synchronously or metachronously
Clinical stage T1 or T2 by Union International to Control Cancer 8th edition system
- ≤40 mm in maximum dimension
- no deep invasion (beyond subcutaneous fat or >6 mm from granular later of dermis to deepest point of carcinoma)
- no perineural invasion of nerves ≥0.1 mm diameter or deeper than dermis
- no intraneural invasion
- no bone erosion, invasion or foraminal transgression
- ≥18 years old
Amenable to RCM/OCT and radiation therapy in opinion of investigator
- Some anatomic locations may preclude imaging by RCM/OCT may not be amenable to RCM/OCT imaging
- Some medical comorbidities may preclude the delivery of radiation therapy (conditions rendering patients hypersensitive to ionizing radiation, or unable to undergo treatment)
- Able and willing to complete the Skindex 16 and Skin Cancer Index (must be able to understand English or Spanish)
Exclusion Criteria:
- Medical contraindication to radiation therapy in the opinion of the investigator
- Prior cancer radiotherapy which precludes the ability to safely deliver radiation therapy in the opinion of the investigator
- High likelihood of protocol non-compliance in the opinion of the investigator °Patients who demonstrate unwillingness to undergo protocol-defined treatment or follow-up procedures will be ineligible to participate

Reflectance ConfocaL Microscopy And Optical Coherence Tomography Guided RadIation TherapY
If eligible, patients will undergo pretreatment RCM/OCT imaging, followed by RT. Six weeks after the completion of RT, patients will undergo post-treatment assessment with RCM/OCT and biopsy. If residual carcinoma is detected on the biopsy, surgical excision of the BCC will be performed. If no residual carcinoma is detected on the biopsy, the patient will be monitored for clinical evidence of recurrence for up to 3 years.
