UCI 14-92 / HS#2015-1889: Phase IV Study of Daylight Photodynamic Therapy With Aminolevulinic Acid for Actinic Keratoses
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Aminolevulinic Acid for Actinic Keratosis. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Photodynamic therapy is an effective treatment for actinic keratoses. In the United States topical aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is approved as a photosensitizing agent for this treatment, and it has traditionally been activated with the use of an in-office artificial light source. This clinical trial seeks to measure the safety and efficacy of using natural sunlight to activate the ALA.
