Sun Safe Together: A Digital Skin Cancer Prevention Intervention for Adolescents and Their Parents

The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to learn if a digital intervention to improve sun safety, Sun Safe Together (SST), is feasible and acceptable to teenagers and their parents.

A Synergistic Approach to Remodeling of Photodamaegd Skin: Exploring Laser-Assisted Biostimulator Delivery

Photodamaged skin increases the risk of skin cancer, highlighting the need for preventive treatments. Laser-assisted drug delivery (LADD) using ablative fractional lasers (AFL) enhances topical drug delivery and has proven safe and effective. Integrating non-invasive optical imaging techniques with transcriptomic gene expression profiling enables evaluation of the response of different skin layers to such interventions. It is hypothesized that AFL-assisted delivery of biostimulators exerts synergistic regenerative effects on photodamaged skin, resulting in superior clinical, molecular, and morphological improvements, as well as enhanced epidermal and dermal remodeling, compared with either monotherapy alone. The study aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the individual and combined effects of AFL and biostimulators on the regeneration of photodamaged skin through clinical assessments, non-invasive imaging, and transcriptomic analysis.

Developing and Testing the Effectiveness of a Skin Cancer Self-Detection Educational Program

Skin cancer is a significant public health concern, even in an Asian society like Singapore where it ranks among the top 10 cancers. This RCT tests the effectiveness of a skin cancer educational intervention to improve skin cancer outcomes among skin-of-color individuals, including the effects of gain versus loss framing.

Early Detection of Skin Tumors Using a Telemedicine Tool in Primary Care

The project is a national, prospective, multicenter, single-arm interventional pilot of screening skin tumors in the Czech Republic. The primary aim of the project is to methodically prepare, implement and evaluate a pilot project that will verify the suitability of the proposed procedure of early detection of skin tumors by using a telemedicine tools and setting up and testing new methods and implementation into the system of social health care.
