While these topical pharmacologic treatments are at times effective, many are limited by the adverse side-effect profile including extreme irritation (ingenol mebutate and fluorouracil), modest efficacy (imiquimod), and systemic toxicity (cantharidin).

[0101]To date, 56 patients have been studied to determine the efficacy of picropodophyllin in treating actinic keratoses. The patients were randomized into four groups, and the patients in each group were treated with a solution containing either 0.5%, 1.25%, or 2.0% picropodophyllin (w / v) in propylene glycol, or a placebo constituting only the vehicle propylene glycol. The picropodophyllin solution was prepared in 100% propylene glycol solution. The solutions were prepared aseptically following GMP protocols. The affected areas of the body variously included the scalp, face, arms, and legs. Without knowing which one of the four solutions they were applying, the subjects self-applied one of the solutions to the skin. After initial application, the subjects gently massaged the solutions into their skin. This was done twice daily for 1 week. Lesions (actinic keratosis) were palpated and visualized by a trained lesion counter who is a board certified dermatologist. The same investigato...
