BACKGROUND Extramammary Paget's disease is a cutaneous neoplasm that presents as erythematous crusted patches and plaques reminiscent of contact dermatitis or inverse psoriasis that can be a challenge to treat in a tissue-sparing manner. The most commonly involved site for this rare disorder is the anogenital region. Surgery is considered as the gold standard therapy. In the last years, the top...
Objective To review published randomised controlled trials to assess the benefit and harm of imiquimod in the treatment of external genital warts. Data sources MEDLINE (1966 – December 2000), Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2000) and PubMed (December 15, 2000), review articles and reference lists. Review methods Included studies had to be randomised trials of imiquimod, to be full published papers, ...
Sir, Imiquimod, an immune response modi® er, has been successful in the treatment of external genital and perianal warts caused by low-risk HPV, usually types 6 or 11 (1). The drug’s antiviral and antitumour properties are thought to be due to its induction of cytokines, which stimulate a T-helper 1 or cell-mediated immune response. Recently, it has been shown that imiquimod may potentially be ...
A 25-year-old Caucasian female with multiple genital warts involving the vulvar area was treated with imiquimod 5% cream. During follow-up the patient developed areas of hypopigmentation at the site of application of imiquimod cream and areas of hypomelanosis around multiple preexisting nevi of the trunk. At 18 months follow-up genital depigmentation persisted and halo nevi of the trunk were st...
Sir, Imiquimod, a non-nucleoside heterocyclic amine, is a member of a new class of immune response-modifying agents (1). Topical use of imiquimod as an immune system modi® er for the treatment of genital and perianal warts has recently been described (2, 3). However, the utility of this agent for the treatment of warts located on other areas of the skin is unknown. We describe here a patient wi...
BACKGROUND Leishmaniasis is a complex disease which presents as visceral, cutaneous and mucocutaneous forms. The current treatment options for this infection are very limited and the immunological state of the host appears to play an important role in the efficacy of the treatment. Immunostimulation through immune response activating agents such as Imiquimod is another rational approach for thi...
Basal cell carcinoma and actinic keratosis are frequent neoplasms. Topical treatments include the recently approved imiquimod cream. We describe here the case of a 68-year-old man with multiple actinic keratosis on the forehead, upper trunk and on the left cheek. In addition, an exulcerated basal cell carcinoma was observed. The patient was advised only to treat lesions on the forehead with imi...
PURPOSE High-risk human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated vulval intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) is difficult to treat by excision or ablation because of high recurrence rates. Small studies of photodynamic therapy (PDT) and imiquimod treatments have shown some success and function at least in part through stimulation of local immune responses. Indeed, there is evidence that immunosuppressed indi...
Various adjuvants in combination with different antigens have been utilized as a vaccine candidate against leishmaniasis. However, the search for ideal adjuvants is still pursued due to the inefficiencies of current compounds. In the present study, the effect of imiquimod, as an adjuvant, is studied with soluble Leishmania antigens (SLA) in BALB/c mice. Four groups of mice were immunized with S...
Imiquimod is a new immunomodulating agent with antitumor and antiviral properties that has been shown to be clinically effective in various kinds of skin diseases, including precancerous dermatoses. Erythroplasia of Queyrat is a carcinoma in situ that mainly occurs on the glans penis. There are several non-invasive treatment options for erythroplasia of Queyrat such as photodynamic therapy, cry...
