- NCT07144852RecruitingPhase 3
Light therapy for skin growths on arms
This trial tests a new gel and light treatment for actinic keratosis (rough, sun-damaged spots) on the arm. It aims to see if it can safely remove these spots and prevent new ones.
Fremont, CaliforniaAges 18–85 - NCT07144345RecruitingPhase 3
Reformulated Light-Activated Cream for Actinic Keratosis on Face or Scalp
This trial tests a reformulated light-activated cream (Levulan Kerastick) for treating actinic keratosis (precancerous skin spots) on the face or bald scalp. It is a phase 3 study to see if the new version works better with fewer side effects.

Freezing vs. cream for sun-damaged spots
This study compares two ways to treat sun-damaged spots called actinic keratoses: freezing them (cryotherapy) or applying a chemotherapy cream (5-fluorouracil). The goal is to see which works better and is safer for people with many spots on their head, neck, arms, or legs.

What taking part in a actinic keratosis study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
