First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 15 times
Summary
This study tests whether a combination of two creams (5-fluorouracil and calcipotriene) can clear low-risk skin cancers in just 1-2 weeks instead of the usual 4 weeks. About 200 adults with superficial basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma in situ will apply the cream daily. Researchers will check if the cancer is gone at 3 months and follow participants for 3 years to see if it stays away.
