Active clinical trials for "Skin Neoplasms"

The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility pedaling using an under-the desk bike during immunotherapy infusions. Also, the study hopes to evaluate how pedaling impacts quality of life and treatment response biomarkers. Lastly, the study will evaluate the relationships between treatment response and muscle mass which is evaluated with computerized tomography (CT) scans.

This pilot phase I trial studies how well sonazoid-enhanced ultrasound works in detecting sentinel lymph node in patients with cutaneous melanoma. Sonazoid is a contrast agent that may make it easier to see if the tumor cells have spread to the sentinel lymph node using an ultrasound.

This is a prospective, multicenter, sample collection study using DermTech's non-invasive skin collection kits to evaluate the mutation burden of non-lesional facial skin from subjects with a documented history of numerous basal cell carcinomas, squamous cell carcinomas or melanomas compared to that of subjects with no history of skin cancer matched for age, sex and Fitzpatrick phototype.

The objective of this study is to correlate traditional histological Mohs tissue mapping of a cutaneous tumor with the ICG-mapping procedure. The use of intradermal ICG in a cutaneous tumor during MMS followed by visualization using a fluorescent imaging system could allow surgeons to directly visualize, and roughly map the extent of a primary skin cancer and plan the Mohs procedure (i.e. the initial excision size and subsequent layer widths) accordingly.

Malignant melanoma, responsible for 75% of deaths from skin cancer. Current therapeutic options have poor response, many adverse events and high costs. For this reason, a study with nutritional supplement Oncoxin-Viusid was carried out. According to previous studies, it has an antitumor, immunomodulatory effect and to potentiate the antiproliferative effect of standard chemotherapeutic agents in different locations and stages of cancer.

There is little information on the effect of oral bioactive compounds on human skin clinically despite evidence of a beneficial effect from laboratory studies. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of oral bioactive compounds (green tea and vitamin C) on the health of human skin by measuring markers of skin health directly and skin nutrient uptake.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate native tissue optical properties and photosensitizer optical properties in vivo with a novel, non-contact optical imaging device call Modulated Imaging to help optimize the laser exposure in future photodynamic treatment for patients with skin cancer. Photodynamic therapy involves the administration of a tumor-localizing photosensitizing agent that, when illuminated with the proper wavelength of light, can result in photochemical processes that cause irreversible damage to tumor tissues. Photodynamic therapy is non-invasive and has been shown to be effective in the treatment of skin cancer while producing excellent aesthetic appearance and psychological well-being in patients that normally would require invasive excisions.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of video-based patient education with written instruction on subjects' adherence to sunscreen application.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of the Screening Inventory of Psychosocial Problems (SIPP) in consultation settings with respect to early recognition and treatment of psychosocial distress, communication between patients and physicians, and psychological distress and quality of life in cancer patients treated with radiotherapy (RT).

This clinical trial studies how well an interactive tailored website works in promoting sun protection and skin self-check behaviors in patients with stage 0-III melanoma. An internet-based program may help individuals to perform skin self-checks and engage in sun protection behaviors.
