Ingenol Mebutate as Treatment of Squamous Cell Carcinoma In Situ: A Case Series

摘要

Ingenol mebutate (IM) is a novel drug currently only FDA-approved for the treatment of actinic keratosis. However, it has been extensively used off-label to treat multiple other skin disorders. In recent years, literature has emerged providing evidence for IM's use as treatment for dermatologic disorders beyond actinic keratosis, including squamous cell carcinoma in situ. Here, we report a case series in which topical 0.05% ingenol mebutate was used to treat squamous cell carcinoma in situ, with five of six patients demonstrating successful results.
