Topical resiquimod dosing regimens in patients with multiple actinic keratoses: a multicentre, partly placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial.

Resiquimod 0·03% gel is more effective than 0·01% gel. From the perspectives of safety and tolerability, the lower concentration and shorter duration are preferable. The clinical response in arms 2/3 was reached with fewer gel applications. The dosing regimens that used the biological end point (arms 4/5) proved equally efficacious as predefined treatment durations and may therefore be suitable for personalized AK treatment.
