Allow the medicine to stay on the treated skin for 8 hours (for actinic keratosis or basal cell carcinoma) or 6 to 10 hours (for genital warts)
This helps the patient's body to destroy the genital warts, AKs, or cancer cells
In Study 1, the complete clearance rate was 24% (52/217) in the imiquimod cream group compared with 26% (28/106) in the vehicle group
Imiquimod is a Toll-like receptor-7/8 (TLR-7/8) agonist that acts as a topical immune response modifier and has been reported as a non-surgical alternative for the treatment of BCC, particularly for the superficial subtype [7, 8]

The partial clearance rate was defined as the percentage of patients in whom 75% or more baseline AK lesions were cleared
In Study 1, the complete clearance rate was 24% (52/217) in the Imiquimod Cream group compared with 26% (28/106) in the vehicle group
In Study 2, the clearance rates were 24% (60/253) in the imiquimod cream group compared with 28% (35/126) in the vehicle group
Do not use cosmetics or any other skin care products on the treated areas, unless directed to do so by your doctor
9% (390/535 lesions) histological clearance rate
These published studies used different treatment regimens, in particular with respect to frequency of application and treatment duration and are therefore difficult to compare (Table I)

Wash off the medicine and call your doctor at once if you have a serious skin reaction such as severe itching, burning, oozing, bleeding, or skin changes where the medicine was applied

There were no statistically significant differences in the time to first recurrence or in the annualized recurrence rate between the imiquimod and placebo groups in either the treatment or the observation period
Toll-like receptor 7 agonist imiquimod is an immune response modifier and can induce immune-mediated rejection of primary skin malignancies when topically applied
