Skin Cancer

Skin Cancer

Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

Background:

Melanoma incidence reached 331,722 cases globally in 2022, highlighting its public health significance.
Early detection is key to melanoma curability, mitigating economic and social burdens.
Current trends in clinical trials for melanoma screening are examined.

Purpose of the Study:

To analyze current trends in clinical trials focused on melanoma screening.
To identify emerging research areas in melanoma detection.

Main Methods:

Data sourced from clinicaltrials.gov.
Included interventional and observational studies on melanoma screening.
Analysis restricted to studies with complete and active status as of September 4, 2024.

Main Results:

Twenty percent of 25 registered studies investigate advanced imaging with machine learning.
Sixteen percent of studies explore behavioral interventions for melanoma screening.
Identified trends in technological and behavioral approaches to melanoma detection.

Conclusions:

Behavioral interventions and health promotion activities require increased emphasis.
Further research into advanced screening techniques is ongoing.
The findings guide future strategies for melanoma screening research.
