Summary

A prospective clinical, uncontrolled, open-label, explorative phase IIa trial on patients with histologically- confirmed superficial and nodular basal cell carcinoma (BCC) . The study assesses tolerability and tumor clearance after laser-assisted topical delivery of two synergistic chemotherapeutic agents, cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in BCC patients.

Conditions

  • Carcinoma, Basal Cell

Interventions

DRUG

AFL-assisted cisplatin+5-FU

Patients will receive AFL-assisted cisplatin+5-FU as a treatment for their BCC. In brief, treatment areas consisting of tumors and a 5 mm margin will undergo CO2 laser exposure followed by 60 min topical application of a marketed and commercially available IV cisplatin solution (0.1%) After removal of cisplatin, a commercially distributed 5-FU cream (5%) will be applied to the treatment area at a dose of 0.125 ml per cm2 and left under occlusion. After skin evaluations on Day 1 and 5 after treatment, the same 5-FU dose will be applied, again left under occlusion. In total, 5-FU will remain on the skin for 7 days after AFL treatment whereafter it will be washed off. An additional repeat AFL-cisplatin+5-FU treatment on Day 30 will be offered if tumors persist, based on clinical evaluation and imaging on Day 30.
