Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The primary endpoint is the clinical response according to RECIST 1.1 criteria. <br>If propranolol leads to a response in =3 out of 14 patients, this treatment modality is highly interesting and should be tested further in a randomized trial. If propranolol leads to a response in =3 out of 14 patients, this treatment modality is highly interesting and should be tested further in a randomized trial. A response is defined as CR, PR, or SD with an improvement in clinical characteristics, like thickness, erythema, necrosis or edema of the inflicted area.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The secondary endpoint is the histologic response defined as a decrease of >30% of Ki-67 index between pre- and post-propranolol treatment biopsies.
