Tailored Sonidegib Schedule After Complete Response in BCC
Italy21 participantsStarted 2021-01-12
Plain-language summary
Adult patients with locally advanced BCC, not amenable to surgical treatment and who obtained a complete response (CR) to Hedgehog inhibitors are administered a tailored schedule of the study drug. The tailored schedule consists of a change in the time of drug assumption. It implements some weeks of assumption and some weeks of suspension of sonidegib rather than a continuous administration.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion criteria
. Written, signed informed consent, including consent to photographs of lesions.
. Age ≥ 18 years.
. Histologic confirmation of locally advanced BCC lesion.
. Patients with BCCs already in treatment with Hedgehog inhibitor sonidegib for:
. Patient having shown a complete response (CR) to Hedgehog inhibitor sonidegib within the 3 months prior to the screening. In BCC every effort should be made to obtain histologic confirmation of CR mainly in case of doubt, performing several biopsies in the sites where disease was present. CR must have been confirmed by 2 consecutive radiologic exams and by visual and dermoscopic examinations.
. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 2.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
