  • Photodynamic Therapy for the Treatment of Actinic Keratoses and Other Skin Lesions
    Photodynamic Therapy for the Treatment of Actinic Keratoses and Other Skin Lesions Policy Number: Current Effective Date: MM.02.016 March 22, 2019 Lines of Business: Original Effective Date: HMO; PPO; QUEST Integration April 01, 2008 Place of Service: Precertification: Office Not Required I. Description Photodynamic therapy (PDT) refers to light activation of a photosensitizer to generate highly reactive intermediaries, which ultimately cause tissue injury and necrosis. Photosensitizing agents are being proposed for use with dermatologic conditions such as actinic keratoses and nonmelanoma skin cancers.For individuals who have nonhyperkeratotic actinic keratoses on the face or scalp who receive PDT, the evidence includes randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The relevant outcomes are symptoms, change in disease status, quality of life, and treatment-related morbidity. Evidence from multiple RCTs has found that PDT improves the net health outcome in patients with nonhyperkeratotic actinic keratoses on the face or scalp compared with placebo or other active interventions. The evidence is sufficient to determine that the technology results in a meaningful improvement in the net health outcome. For individuals who have low-risk basal cell carcinoma who receive PDT, the evidence includes RCTs and systematic reviews of RCTs. The relevant outcomes are symptoms, change in disease status, quality of life, and treatment-related morbidity. Systematic reviews of RCTs have found that PDT may not be as effective as surgery for superficial and nodular basal cell carcinoma. In the small number of trials available, PDT was more effective than placebo. The available evidence from RCTs has suggested that PDT has better cosmetic outcomes than surgery.

    Medical Policy 2.01.44 Dermatologic Applications of Photodynamic Therapy Original Policy Date: June 1, 2001 Effective Date: February 1, 2021 Section: 2.0 Medicine Page: Page 1 of 30 Policy Statement Photodynamic therapy may be considered medically necessary as a treatment of any of the following: I. Nonhyperkeratotic actinic keratoses of the face and scalp (see policy guidelines) II. Nonhyperkeratotic actinic keratoses of the upper extremities (see policy guidelines) III. Low-risk (e.g., superficial and nodular) basal cell skin cancer only when surgery and radiation are contraindicated IV. Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma in situ (Bowen disease) only when surgery and radiation are contraindicated Photodynamic therapy is considered investigational for other dermatologic applications, including, but not limited to: I. Acne vulgaris II. Hidradenitis suppurativa III. High-risk basal cell carcinomas IV. Mycoses Photodynamic therapy is considered not medically necessary as a technique of any of the following: I. Altering normal structures of the body in order to improve appearance II. Hair removal III. Skin rejuvenation NOTE: Refer to Appendix A to see the policy statement changes (if any) from the previous version. Policy Guidelines Surgery and radiation are the preferred treatments for low-risk basal cell cancer and Bowen disease (see Rationale section). If photodynamic therapy is selected for these indications because of contraindications to surgery or radiation, patients and physicians need to be aware that it may have a lower cure rate than surgery or radiation. Photodynamic therapy typically involves 2 office visits: 1 to apply the topical aminolevulinic acid and a second visit to expose the patient to blue light.

  • Emerging Strategies for Cancer Immunoprevention
    Oncogene (2015) 34, 6029–6039 © 2015 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0950-9232/15 www.nature.com/onc REVIEW Emerging strategies for cancer immunoprevention JC Roeser1, SD Leach2 and F McAllister3 The crucial role of the immune system in the formation and progression of tumors has been widely accepted. On one hand, the surveillance role of the immune system plays an important role in endogenous tumor prevention, but on the other hand, in some special circumstances such as in chronic inflammation, the immune system can actually contribute to the formation and progression of tumors. In recent years, there has been an explosion of novel targeted immunotherapies for advanced cancers. In the present manuscript, we explore known and potential various types of cancer prevention strategies and focus on nonvaccine- based cancer preventive strategies targeting the immune system at the early stages of tumorigenesis. Oncogene (2015) 34, 6029–6039; doi:10.1038/onc.2015.98; published online 14 September 2015 INTRODUCTION Differences between chemoprevention and immunoprevention. As cancer is a collection of multiple complex individual diseases Whereas immunoprevention focuses on directly or indirectly that happen in different sites of the body and progress in different targeting the immune system, chemopreventive strategies utilize ways, a large amount of information is required to understand drugs or natural compounds to prevent cancer development.3 how to prevent each cancer type. Existing interventions for cancer Less than a dozen chemopreventive agents have been FDA prevention focus on the use of chemopreventive agents or approved: tamoxifen and raloxifene for breast cancer fi prevention,4,5 celecoxib for colorectal polyps prevention in vaccines designed and tested for prevention of speci c cancer 6,7 8,9 types.
