Combination-Based Strategies for the Treatment of Actinic Keratoses with Photodynamic Therapy: An Evidence-Based Review

Abstract: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a highly effective and widely adopted treatment strategy for many skin diseases, particularly for multiple actinic keratoses (AKs). However, PDT is ineffective in some cases, especially if AKs occur in the acral part of the body. Several methods to improve the efficacy of PDT without significantly increasing the risks of side effects have been proposed. In this study, we reviewed the combination-based PDT treatments described in the literature for treating AKs; both post-treatment… Show more

“…Pretreatment can, for example, be performed by topical, systemic, or ablative procedures. [54][55][56] A study by Maytin et al could show that the doses of accumulated photoactive protoporphyrins measured in skin biopsies were increased 2 to 3-fold compared to non-pretreated AKs after pretreatment of AKs with 5-FU for 6 days and subsequent exposure to MAL for three additional hours. 55 The subsequently performed RL-PDT achieved a significantly higher clearance rate after 3 and 6 months in pretreated AKs.…”
