Filter by:The objective of the trial is to investigate the Safety of LEO 43204 0.018%, 0.037% and 0.1% for actinic keratosis applied once daily for three consecutive days on face/chest, scalp and trunk/extremities, respectively.
The main purpose of this vehicle-controlled study is to determine the efficacy and safety of a solution of Actikerall® (containing 5-fluorouracil 0.5% and salicylic acid 10.0%) in the field-directed treatment of grade I-II actinic keratosis, when it is applied to the affected area once daily for 12 weeks. A secondary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Actikerall® solution on subclinical actinic keratosis lesions in a subset of patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential for systemic exposure of aminolevulinic acid (ALA) when applied topically under occlusion, in a maximal use setting in patients with multiple actinic keratoses (AK) involving the upper extremities.
Actinic keratosis (AKs) are premalignant disorders that can evolve into skin cancer. To prevent their development, a study is being conducted with oral isotretinoin and topical tretinoin to verify what drug is the most effective and has the best security profile for these patients. Along with these treatments, cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen and sunscreens will be part of the treatment. The study will have the duration of 10 months. In the first four months, the AKs will be counted and treated with cryotherapy (face and arms) and sunscreens FPS 60 will be used. After it, the patients will return (the AKs will be counted), a new session of cryotherapy will be performed and they will be randomized into two groups: one group using oral isotretinoin 10mg/day ( ISO: 30 patients) and the other one using tretinoin 0,05% cream (AR: 30 patients) applied on face and arms. Skin biopsies will be done for all 60 patients at the beginning of the treatment with retinoids (isotretinoin and tretinoin). After six months of treatment with retinoids, the study will be stopped, AKs will be counted again and skin biopsies will be done. Patients in the group ISO (oral isotretinoin) also have to make blood tests at the beginning, two months and after six months of the treatment. Clinical (AK counting), histological (improvement of parts of the skin) and immunohistochemical parameters will be evaluated to see what drug is more effective for prevention of AKs.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and dose-response of 2 concentrations of A-101 versus a vehicle control in the treatment of seborrheic keratosis.
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) using methyl aminolevulinate (MAL) is an effective first-line treatment for actinic keratosis (AK). Erbium: yttrium-aluminium-garnet (Er:YAG) ablative fractional laser-assisted MAL-PDT (AFL-PDT) has shown significant benefit for the treatment of AK. However, knowledge on the optimal photosensitizer incubation time for AFL-PDT is limited
Background: 5% 5-fluorouracil cream (5-FU) is a well-established treatment for actinic keratosis (AK) and ingenol mebutate gel (IMB) is a new topical field therapy. Objective: To compare tolerability and safety of IMB with 5-FU for the treatment of facial AKs. Methods: Open-label, prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial with 100 patients with AKs within 25-cm2 contiguous field on the face. IMB was applied daily for three consecutive days. 5-FU was applied twice a day for four weeks. Treatment effect was evaluated at baseline and on days 2, 3, 4, 8, 15, 22, 29, 36 and 43, considering ITT populations.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Levulan photodynamic therapy (PDT) is safe and effective in the treatment of actinic keratoses (AK) on the face, following treatment with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine the long-term safety and efficacy of Levulan PDT in subjects with multiple actinic keratosis of the upper extremities who received treatment as part of the DUSA CP0108 study.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the dose-response relationship of two concentrations of A-101 solution when applied to individual seborrheic keratosis (SK) lesions (target lesions) compared with a matching A-101 Solution Vehicle.
