    Background To enhance the efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for actinic keratosis (AKs), physical and chemical pre-treatments, such as calcipotriol (CAL) have been suggested. Objectives To compare the long-term 12-month efficacy and safety between methylaminolevulinate (MAL)-PDT and prior application of topical CAL versus conventional MAL-PDT for AKs of the scalp. Materials & Methods Twenty patients with multiple AKs on the scalp were randomized to receive conventional PDT on one side of the scalp and CAL-assisted PDT, in which CAL was applied daily for 15 days beforehand, on the other side. Patients were evaluated for AK clearance at three, six and 12 months thereafter. Results All 20 patients completed the study. At three months, overall AK clearance was 92.07% and 82.04% for CAL-PDT and conventional PDT, respectively (p < 0.001). Similar results were found at six and 12 months: 92.07% and 81.69% (p < 0.001), and 90.69% and 77.46% (p < 0.001) for CAL-PDT and conventional PDT, respectively. Grade I AKs showed a similar response rate for both sides (p = 0.055) at three months and significant differences were obtained at six (p = 0.001) and 12 months (p < 0.001) for CAL-PDT and conventional PDT. Grade II AKs showed greater improvement on the CAL-PDT side (89.55% vs 62.90%) (p < 0.001) at three months. No difference was found at six and 12 months. Conclusion CAL-PDT proved to be safe and more effective than conventional PDT for the treatment of AKs on the scalp after 12 months. CAL pre-treatment may have enhanced the efficacy of PDT for AK treatment, however, larger trials are needed to corroborate our findings.

    Identification of Polyomaviruses in Skin Cancers
    (2021) COSTA, Pedro V. A.; ISHIY, Patricia S.; URBANO, Paulo R. P.; ROMANO, Camila M.; TYRING, Stephen K.; OLIVEIRA, Walmar R. P.; FESTA-NETO, Cyro
    Background: Polyomaviruses (PyVs) were initially described in animals. They have also been detected in humans with some evidence that could play a role in skin carcinogenesis. Objectives: This study aimed to verify the presence of PyVs in different skin tumour samples and to make clinical correlations with patients' epidemiological data from Clinics Hospital of Medical School of University of Sao Paulo, Brazil. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. A random selection was performed of 120 patients with histopathological exams of different cutaneous neoplasms equally divided into 6 groups and 20 patients with normal skin. The available skin specimens were analysed with 2 different techniques of PCR (conventional and real time) for detection of PyV DNA. Concomitantly, retrospective analysis of the respective medical records for the collection of epidemiological data was done. Analyses suitable for categorical data were used to compare the proportion of patients in each group. Results: PyV DNA was found in 25.69% of the samples: 15% in basal cell carcinoma group, 15% in squamous cell carcinoma, 28.57% in melanoma, 15% in dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, 13.33% in Kaposi sarcoma, 65% in Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), and none in normal skin. Merkel cell PyV detection was statistically significant in MCC patients (p value <0.01), but no correlations were found between PyVs and others skin tumours. Conclusion: This study demonstrated the presence of PyVs in different skin tumours; however, no association of any PyVs found in any skin tumour with epidemiological data could be shown. Further studies are still needed to elucidate the mechanisms of PyVs in skin carcinogenesis.
