Official title

A Phase I Trial of Continuous Low-Irradiance Photodynamic Therapy (CLIPT) for Patients Failing Radiation Therapy

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This research is intended to explore a new approach to therapy when breast cancer recurs in the skin. The treatment, known as continuous low-irradiance photodynamic therapy, or CLIPT, has shown great promise in animal studies. The investigators goal is to evaluate CLIPT in people, using a novel light delivery system, to assess its side effects and the benefit it has in treating cancer. The investigators goal is to develop a safe, effective therapy that can be given in the doctor's office or possibly at home.
