Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Tumour response (size)
Response rate will be defined as number of responding lesions (partial or complete response) relative to treated lesions evaluated by changes in size (mm) by clinical examination with caliper measurement. Tumor response will be further documented using clinical photography.
2 months
Secondary Outcomes (11)
Treatment response up to 12 months (size)
13 months
Assessment of residual tumor from biopsies after 1 year
12 months
MRI scans to verify treatment and evaluate tumour changes after treatment
2 months
Evaluation of patient quality of life before and after treatment using EORTC Questionnaires.
13 months
Systemic immunologic response evaluated by routine scans
12 months
- +6 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (1)
Calcium electroporation treatment
EXPERIMENTALExperimental treatment with calcium electroporation for malignant cutaneous and subcutaneous tumours
Interventions
Patients with cutaneous or subcutaneous malignant tumours will be treated with calcium electroporation, i.e. intratumoral injection of calcium followed by electroporation by electric pulses applied directly to the tumor.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Trial subject ≥ 18 years.
- Trial subject must be able to understand the participant information.
- Histologically verified cutaneous or subcutaneous, primary or secondary cancer of any histology.
- The patient must have been offered other relevant standard treatment for their cancer disease.
- The patient can undergo any simultaneous medical treatment (endocrine therapy, chemotherapy, immunotherapy etc.) if progressive or stable disease is present after a treatment period of two months or more.
- The patient can undergo radiation therapy, provided that the treatment field does not involve treated area.
- Performance status ECOG/WHO ≤2.
- At least one cutaneous or subcutaneous tumour measuring up to 3 cm.
- Both men and women who are sexually active must use safe contraception (contraceptive coil, deposit injection of gestagen, subdermal implantation, hormonal vaginal ring or transdermal patch).
- Signed informed consent.
You may not qualify if:
- Pregnancy or lactation
