Xoft Electronic Brachytherapy Clinical Protocol For The Primary Treatment Of Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer

The objective of this study is to record recurrence in patients treated for nonmelanoma
(basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas) skin cancer using the Xoft Axxent Electronic
Brachytherapy System. Additional objectives include evaluate the appearance of the treated
area in patients treated for nonmelanoma skin cancer using the Xoft Axxent Electronic
Brachytherapy System and record the occurrence of radiation therapy related skin changes in
patients treated for nonmelanoma skin cancer.

The objective of this study is to record local recurrence in patients treated for
nonmelanoma (basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas) skin cancer using the Xoft Axxent
Electronic Brachytherapy System. Additional objectives include evaluate the cosmetic
outcomes in patients treated for nonmelanoma skin cancer using the Xoft Axxent Electronic
Brachytherapy System and record the occurrence of radiation therapy related skin toxicities
in patients treated for nonmelanoma skin cancer using the Xoft Axxent Electronic
Brachytherapy System.
