Trial summary

The aim of this study is to show that the Nd:YAG laser could be a promising alternative treatment option in the management of low-risk basal cell carcinomas with similar high efficacy rates to surgery, and low recurrence rates evaluated over a time period of one year. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: New Imaging Procedures and Therapeutic Approach in Basal Cell Carcinoma

The aim of this study is to show that the Nd:YAG laser could be a promising alternative treatment option in the management of low-risk basal cell carcinomas with similar high efficacy rates to surgery, and low recurrence rates evaluated over a time period of one year. Reflectance confocal microscopy, optical coherence tomography and clinical examination are used prior to confirm the clinical diagnosis of the basal cell carcinoma and for premargination of the tumor. The optical coherence tomography will also be used post treatment to confirm clearance of the basal cell carcinoma and to monitor treatment response.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Treatment efficacy of Nd:YAG Laser 1064-nm for low risk basal cell carcinomas

    Clearance rate of basal cell carcinomas after 1-3 Nd:YAG laser treatments evaluated by clinical inspectation, dermatosopy and optical coherence tomography.

    Measured: 8 weeks after the treatment

  2. Recurrence Rate after Nd:YAG Laser treatment

    To assess the recurrence rate after a long-term follow-up of 6 and 12 months

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (Safety and Tolerability)

    To assess treatment tolerability of the Nd:YAG Laser 1064-nm (e.g. pain according to a Numerical rating scale, scarring, wound healing, secondary infection rate)

    Measured: 6 and 12 months after treatment

  2. Cosmetic outcome after laser treatment

    This will be assess according to an assessment scale including following parameters:

    • Pigmentation: hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, normal
    • Vascularity: pink, red, purple, normal
    • Pliability: firm, contracture, supple, yielding, ropes, normal
    • Scarring: yes, no
    • Overall opinion: Rating on a scale from 1-5 (school note system) Separate evaluation of observer and patient.

    Measured: 6 and 12 months after treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cynosure Cynergy Nd:YAG Laser 1064nm in people with Basal Cell Carcinoma, run by Dr. Stephanie Geisler.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Treatment efficacy of Nd:YAG Laser 1064-nm for low risk basal cell carcinomas (time frame: 8 weeks after the treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Apr 2022.
