Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to assess whether basal cell carcinoma (BCC) lesions surgically treated with curettage, followed by imiquimod 5% cream as postsurgical adjuvant therapy, will have an improved cure rate over the ED/C historical norm of approximately 70% at 1-year posttreatment follow-up. A secondary objective is to assess cosmetic outcome.
