Publication number: 20110319811Abstract: The present invention is directed to the use of complementary or combination lesion-directed therapy, such as cryosurgery, and field-directed therapy, such as low dose imiquimod topical therapy with short durations, in combination to treat actinic keratosis (“AK”). In carrying out the present invention, the lesion-directed and field-directed therapies may be applied sequentially or concomitantly, in accordance with the present invention. The novel complementary or combination AK therapy contemplated by the present invention: (1) significantly improves clearance of cryosurgery-treated Aks; (2) treats subclinical AK lesions; (3) treats those visible AK lesions in excess of that cryosurgery can actually treat in a single treatment due to, e.g., patient tolerance, provider treatment limits and/or cryosurgery cost to the patient; and (4) enhances sustained clearance overall, as compared to mono AK lesion-directed therapy.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2011Publication date: December 29, 2011Inventors: Michael T. Nordsiek, Sharon F. Levy, James Hurn-Joung Lee, James H. Kulp, Tze-Chiang Meng, Jason J. Wu, Robert Babilon, Kodumudi S. Balaji, Valyn S. Bahm
