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.

Featured Clinical Trials
Daratumumab, Pomalidomide, and Dexamethasone (DPd) in Relapsed/Refractory Light Chain Amyloidosis Patients Previously Exposed to Daratumumab
This study will test the hypothesis that in patients with previous daratumumab exposure, combination therapy of daratumumab, pomalidomide, and dexamethasone (DPd) will yield higher complete remission (CR) rates in relapsed/refractory amyloidosis than historical pomalidomide/dexamethasone treatment.
Stanford is currently accepting patients for this trial.
Stanford Investigator(s):
Intervention(s):
- drug: Pomalidomide
- drug: Dexamethasone

* Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × the upper limit of the normal range (ULN) (Total bilirubin ≥ 1.5 x ULN is acceptable if bilirubin is fractionated and direct bilirubin \<35%)
* Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 3 × ULN.
* eGFR ≥ 20 mL/min/1.73 m2 (as calculated by Modified Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula)
Exclusion Criteria:

* Clinically significant cardiac disease
* Severe obstructive airway disease
* Female patients who are lactating or have a positive serum pregnancy test during the screening period
* Planned high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation within 6, 28-day treatment cycles after starting on treatment.
* Failure to have fully recovered (ie, ≤ Grade 1 toxicity) from the reversible effects of prior chemotherapy.
* Major surgery within 14 days before enrollment.
* Radiotherapy within 14 days before enrollment.
* Infection requiring systemic intravenous antibiotic therapy or other serious infection within 14 days before study enrollment. Systemic treatment, within 14 days before the first dose, with strong CYP3A inducers (rifampin, rifapentine, rifabutin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital, see Appendix 11.7), or use of Ginkgo biloba or St. John's wort.
* Positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B, and hepatitis C
* Diagnosed or treated for another malignancy within 2 years before study enrollment or previously diagnosed with another malignancy and have any evidence of residual disease. Patients with nonmelanoma skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of any type are not excluded if they have undergone complete resection.
