CFH Protein Ice Microneedles for Radiation Skin Damage
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests a new treatment using ice microneedles to deliver a healing protein (CFH) to prevent skin scarring and fibrosis after radiation therapy for head and neck cancer. The goal is to reduce long-term skin damage from cancer treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new type of cream made with tiny particles that mop up harmful molecules to prevent or treat skin damage from radiation. It is for people with head or neck cancer receiving high-dose radiation to see if it can reduce skin redness, pain, and peeling.
This trial tests a liquid made from cockroach extract (Meilian Fuxin) to prevent or treat skin damage from radiation therapy in people with head and neck cancer. It aims to see if this topical treatment can reduce radiation dermatitis compared to standard care.
This trial tests a special cream that reduces skin irritation from radiation therapy for head and neck cancer. It combines the cream with mild heat to help prevent or treat radiation burns.
This trial tests a special lipid that may protect the skin from radiation damage during treatment for head and neck cancer. If it works, it could help prevent or treat the painful skin irritation that often occurs with radiation therapy.
This study tests a radiofrequency (heat-based) device designed to improve the appearance of depressed acne scars on the face. The device uses controlled radiofrequency energy to stimulate skin healing and may help scars become less noticeable.
This trial tests if a diclofenac cream can help prevent skin redness, peeling, or pain caused by radiation therapy. It is for people with certain head and neck cancers or breast cancer who are starting radiation treatment.
