Sponsor: Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The research study will evaluate how the body absorbs and reacts to reformulated Levulan Kerastick when applied to actinic keratosis lesions (AKs) on the skin of the forearms or face followed by photodynamic therapy (PDT), a treatment that uses application of blue light.

Official title: An Open-Label, Single-Period, Pharmacokinetic Study of Aminolevulinic Acid (ALA) and Protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) When Reformulated Levulan Kerastick is Applied Topically in A Maximal Use Setting in Separate Cohorts of Patients With Actinic Keratosis on the Upper Extremities or Actinic Keratosis on the Face

Interventions

DRUG

Investigational drug

The study drug will be applied to the treatment area containing an acceptable number of AK lesions. If enrolled in group A (Cohort A), the treatment area will be on both forearms. During an incubation period of 3 hours the treatment area on both forearms will be covered. After the dressing will be removed, and the light therapy will begin and last for 8 minutes and 20 seconds. If you are enrolled in group B (Cohort B), the treatment area will be on the face. During the incubation period of 3 hours the treatment area will not be covered. After, the light therapy will begin and last for 8 minutes and 20 seconds. After treatment, the study staff will perform serial blood draws for PK testing at pre-determined time points during the day.
