Clinical Trials Unit
Stanford University School of Medicine's Center for Advanced Dermatologic Investigation is the Dermatology Department's clinical trials unit.
The Center is home to 12-15 ongoing clinical studies, investigating the safety and efficacy of new and currently available drugs and over-the-counter medications. The Center works with Stanford's own panel on medical research, leading pharmaceutical companies,and the Food and Drug Administration to safely and ethically expand the medical field's knowledge of dermatologic treatments. New studies begin regularly, and the Center continues to recruit patients with skin aging, sun damage, skin cancer (including basal cell carcinomas), psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, rosacea, and other dermatologic diseases for ongoing studies.
Skin Aging Studies
We seek to understand the human aging processes as it relates to skin on a fundamental level. To this end, our studies focus on clinical and translational research efforts ranging from: (1) the analysis of gene changes which predispose individuals to exceptionally youthful skin to (2) molecular signatures that may be biomarkers for aging skin to (3) the careful study of new candidate agents which might affect the skin aging process.
Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer
Recent advances in our understanding of basal cell skin cancer biology have enabled the development of cutting edge study drugs which combat tumor growth. We are currently home to a number of clinical trials at the forefront of potential therapy for advanced or metastatic basal cell cancer. In addition, we seek to understand the biology of basal cell skin cancers and to identify molecular predictors for treatment success.
Acne Rosecea
This is a common and frustrating chronic inflammatory condition of the face, usually affecting older individuals. The causes of this complex condition are the subject of much study. Our clinical studies seek to identify new topical or oral medications to improve the symptoms of acne rosacea.

Standard Systemic Therapy With or Without Definitive Treatment in Treating Participants With Metastatic Prostate Cancer
This phase III trial studies how well standard systemic therapy with or without definitive treatment (prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy) works in treating participants with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Addition of prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy to standard systemic therapy for prostate cancer may lower the chance of the cancer growing or spreading.
Stanford is currently accepting patients for this trial.

Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA: All patients must have a histologically
or cytologically proven diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Patients with
pure small cell carcinoma* (SCC), sarcomatoid, or squamous cell carcinoma are not
eligible. (*morphology must be consistent with SCC; synaptophysin or chromogranin
positive by immunohistochemical staining is insufficient to diagnose SCC).
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA: Patients must have an intact prostate.
No prior local therapy for prostate adenocarcinoma is allowed (e.g., brachytherapy,
high-intensity focused ultrasound [HIFU], cryotherapy, laser ablative therapies). Any
prior therapy for benign conditions, such as obstruction, are acceptable (e.g.,
transurethral resection of the prostate, greenlight laser ablation, microwave
ablation).
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA: Patients must have evidence of
metastatic disease on technetium bone scan and computed tomography (CT) or magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) within 42 days prior to starting standard systemic therapy.
Metastatic disease that is detected by positron emission tomography (PET) scan only
(sodium fluoride [NaF], prostate-specific membrane antigen [PSMA],
anti-1-amino-3-18F-fluorocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid [FACBC], carbon [C]11) but not
conventional imaging (technetium [Tc]99 bone scan, CT or MRI) or solitary metastases
by conventional imaging, must be confirmed histologically or cytologically.
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA: Patients with known brain metastases
are not eligible. Brain imaging studies are not required for eligibility if the
patient has no neurologic signs or symptoms suggestive of brain metastasis. If brain
imaging studies are performed, they must be negative for disease.

allowed except for the following: adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin
cancer, adequately treated stage 0, I or II cancer from which the patient is currently
in complete remission, or any other cancer from which the patient has been disease
free for three years.

Standard Systemic Therapy With or Without Definitive Treatment in Treating Participants With Metastatic Prostate Cancer
This phase III trial studies how well standard systemic therapy with or without definitive treatment (prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy) works in treating participants with prostate cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Addition of prostate removal surgery or radiation therapy to standard systemic therapy for prostate cancer may lower the chance of the cancer growing or spreading.
Stanford is currently accepting patients for this trial.

Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA: All patients must have a histologically
or cytologically proven diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Patients with
pure small cell carcinoma* (SCC), sarcomatoid, or squamous cell carcinoma are not
eligible. (*morphology must be consistent with SCC; synaptophysin or chromogranin
positive by immunohistochemical staining is insufficient to diagnose SCC).
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA: Patients must have an intact prostate.
No prior local therapy for prostate adenocarcinoma is allowed (e.g., brachytherapy,
high-intensity focused ultrasound [HIFU], cryotherapy, laser ablative therapies). Any
prior therapy for benign conditions, such as obstruction, are acceptable (e.g.,
transurethral resection of the prostate, greenlight laser ablation, microwave
ablation).
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA: Patients must have evidence of
metastatic disease on technetium bone scan and computed tomography (CT) or magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) within 42 days prior to starting standard systemic therapy.
Metastatic disease that is detected by positron emission tomography (PET) scan only
(sodium fluoride [NaF], prostate-specific membrane antigen [PSMA],
anti-1-amino-3-18F-fluorocyclobutane-1-carboxylic acid [FACBC], carbon [C]11) but not
conventional imaging (technetium [Tc]99 bone scan, CT or MRI) or solitary metastases
by conventional imaging, must be confirmed histologically or cytologically.
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: DISEASE-RELATED CRITERIA: Patients with known brain metastases
are not eligible. Brain imaging studies are not required for eligibility if the
patient has no neurologic signs or symptoms suggestive of brain metastasis. If brain
imaging studies are performed, they must be negative for disease.
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: PRIOR/CONCURRENT THERAPY CRITERIA: Patients must have received no
more than 28 weeks of standard systemic therapy (SST). SST is defined as current
National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines for metastatic prostate
cancer.
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: PRIOR/CONCURRENT THERAPY CRITERIA: Patients must not have
progressed while on SST.
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: PRIOR/CONCURRENT THERAPY CRITERIA: Patients with oligometastatic
prostate cancer may receive metastasis directed therapy to up to four sites of disease
prior to randomization.
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: CLINICAL/LABORATORY CRITERIA: Patients must have a complete
physical examination and medical history within 28 days prior to registration.
- STEP 1 REGISTRATION: CLINICAL/LABORATORY CRITERIA: Patients must have a PSA documented
prior to initiation of SST and within 28 days prior to registration. Any additional
PSAs measured while receiving SST should be recorded.

lab documented within 28 days prior to randomization. Any additional testosterone labs
measured while receiving SST should be recorded as well as pretreatment initiation if
available.
