Study of a new wound dressing after skin cancer surgery
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a special dressing (called CAMP) for healing wounds after skin cancer removal. The dressing is applied along with your usual care, and we compare it to usual care alone to see which helps wounds heal better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have had Mohs surgery to remove a skin cancer (like basal or squamous cell).
- The wound left by surgery is not infected and does not need a flap or graft (skin patch) right away.
- If the wound is on your lower leg or foot, it must have good blood flow, checked by a simple test.
- You can attend weekly study visits.
- If you have diabetes, it must be well controlled (recent A1c under 10%).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how a wound dressing or treatment affects healing in surgical cuts that are closed with sutures or similar methods. You may be able to join if you’re having a skin surgery on the neck, trunk, or arms/legs with a long enough wound you can follow up on.
This trial compares two types of wound dressings after surgery for soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) that has had radiation therapy. It aims to see whether one dressing helps your wound heal better after tumor removal.
This trial tests different wound-healing products (called CAMPs) to see if they work better than standard care for hard-to-heal pressure ulcers (bedsores). It might be a good fit if you have a long-lasting stage 3 or 4 bedsore on your trunk that is not infected.
This trial tests a special wound dressing (SupraSDRM®) to help deep, full-thickness wounds heal faster and reduce the time needed before a skin graft can be placed. It may be an option for people with a large, deep wound from an injury, surgery, or burn that isn't ready for a graft yet.
This study tests whether special wound dressings (called CAMPs) can help heal diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers faster. If you have a hard-to-heal sore on your foot or leg, this trial may be an option.
This study compares two ways of letting skin wounds heal after Mohs surgery: using a skin substitute (a special dressing) versus letting the wound heal naturally on its own. If you join, you'll be assigned to one of these approaches, and the researchers will track how well and how fast your wound heals.
