Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma in Situ"

The purpose of this study is to investigate if imiquimod can be used as a non-invasive option in the treatment of residual/recurrent CIN lesions.

The purpose of this study is to access the efficacy and safety of GX-188E according the protocol in patients with Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia 2, 2/3 or 3 (CIN3)

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, feasibility, and regression rate of using curcumin in patients with Cervical Intraepithelial neoplasias (CIN3). The secondary objectives of this study is to evaluate patients with CIN3 for the presence of high-risk Human papillomavirus (HPV) and to perform an inflammatory panel on dysplasia biopsies from patients with CIN3 to determine which factors play a role in persistence of CIN3.

This is a pilot study to investigate the usefulness of closure of mucosal defect after gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in patients that are at high risk of post-procedural haemorrhage. Delayed haemorrhage is still an important adverse event of ESD, occurring more frequently for gastric lesions. Risk factors identified for delayed haemorrhage include chronic kidney disease, use of antithrombotic agent, lesion size >20mm, specimen size >30mm. Current established methods to prevent this complications could not completely eliminate the chance of bleeding, especially among high-risk cases. Closure of ESD defect may prevent ongoing exposure of submucosal vessels to gastric acid, and further reduce the risk of delayed haemorrhage. The investigators conduct this study to investigate the effect of closing the defect with endoscopic clips and loop. 30 patients who are undergoing gastric ESD deemed high risk of delayed haemorrhage would be recruited, with closure of defect after resection. The rate of delayed haemorrhage would be compared with historical cohort of patients.

This study wants to demonstrate the non-inferiority in terms of efficacy and safety of treatment with cidofovir (1%) in topical ointment or topical sinecatechins (10%) ointment versus electrocoagulation (control group) for the treatment of high-grade anal intraepithelial neoplasia (HGAIN). The target patients are Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)-infected homosexual males. All these patients will be randomized by a proportion of 1:1:1 setting up 3 different parallel arms of the study: control group, cidofovir (1%) group and topical sinecatechins (10%) group.

The purpose of this phase II trial is to determine the feasibility and efficacy of nimotuzumab combined with concurrent chemoradiotherapy for initially inoperable locally advanced cervical squamous cell carcinoma.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of composite gel containing black raspberry extract in removing HPV From patients With cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN) after cervical conization

The primary objective of this study is to compare the safety of 100 mg carboplatin administered intraductally once on Day 1 or twice on Days 1 and 15 in women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) undergoing surgical management 2 to 4 weeks following the Day 15 intraductal infusion. Secondary objectives are to characterize the biologic and clinical effects with respect to: pharmacokinetics, extent of disease on MRI and mammogram, histopathological assessment of DCIS, and biomarker measurement of Ki-67, TUNEL and G-actin.

RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells. It is not yet known whether radiation therapy after surgery is effective in preventing a recurrence of ductal carcinoma in situ. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying adjuvant radiation therapy to see how well it works compared to observation after surgery in treating women with estrogen receptor positive or progesterone receptor positive ductal carcinoma in situ and are also receiving either tamoxifen or anastrozole.

This pilot study will evaluate the effectiveness of using photodynamic therapy for treatment of cutaneous squamous cell in situ (SCCis). Our hypothesis is that PDT will be effective for treating SCCis. This study will also secondarily evaluate the tolerability of using photodynamic therapy for treatment of SCCis. Investigators plan to enroll 40 subjects with biopsy proven SCCis. Exclusion criteria include lesion in high-risk site (head, neck, hands, feet), previous severe adverse reaction to topical 20% aminolevulinic acid (Kerastick), previous severe adverse reaction to blue light (BLU-U), allergy to Tegaderm, primary or secondary immunosuppression, history of > 6 skin cancers in the past year, photosensitizing condition such as lupus, or sensitivity to porphyrins. Age, gender, size, and location of the SCCis will be recorded. All subjects will receive surgical treatment of their SCCis. The control group will undergo a surgical excision of the tumor. After the excision, subjects will be asked to fill out a satisfaction survey. The intervention group will receive PDT plus surgical treatment. Photographs of the lesion will be taken at each study visit. Subjects in the intervention group will then undergo the study procedure of application of topical 20% 5-ALA (Levulan Kerastick; DUSA Pharmaceuticals) to the SCCis. At 3-5 weeks after the initial treatment, the subject will repeat the 3-hour ALA incubation and blue light exposure. At 6 months after the last treatment, subjects in the intervention group will return for clinical follow-up and surgical excision of the lesion. After excision, the specimen will be sent for processing by pathology and subjects will be asked to fill out a satisfaction visual analog scale. All slides will be read by a board-certified dermatopathologist. Side effects will also be monitored using the same graded scale described previously. Mild adverse events that have been associated with PDT, including erythema, skin crusting, superficial blistering, hypopigmentation, and hyperpigmentation. These reactions usually occur during or immediately after the PDT treatment.
