Brief Summary

Participants will be invited to take part in a research study as they have been diagnosed with multiple actinic keratosis lesions (AK). AK usually present as small, rough, dry, scaly and/or crusty patches or papules of the skin that can be skin-coloured pink, red, tan or a combinationof colours and are often easier to feel than see at their earlier stages. AK are commonly diagnosed in adults, particularly in patients aged 45 years and older and are considered to be pre-cancerous lesions. The research is aiming to investigate the protective effect of an investigational sunscreen known as Anthelios Fluide 100 KA+ UVMune 400, when used together with good sun protection habits (which include staying in the shade during the hours of 11 am and 3 pm, wearing sun-protective clothing, wearing a wide-brimmed hat) in participants with multiple Actinic keratoses's. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned into 1 of 2 groups - an intervention or control group The study main objective is to evaluate tested sunscreen prevention on actinic keratosis lesions.

• Variation of biomarkers of disease severity (p53)

  at baseline and 6 months post-commencement of intervention

• Questionnaire (self-assessment)

  6 months post-commencement of intervention

• Adverse Events reporting

  at 1, 2, 3, 6 and 9 months post-commencement of intervention

Study Arms (2)

Sunscreen investigational product

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants (40) will be asked to follow usual recommendations for AK patients as per sun protection information guidelines document provided by Melanoma Institute Australia and will use the sunscreen investigational product at least once every morning and to reapply as often as necessary during the day in case of sun exposure.

Other: Tested product group

Control Group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Participants (40) will be asked to follow usual recommendations for AK patients as per sun protection information guidelines document provided by Melanoma Institute Australia and may use their normal sun cream

Other: Control group

Interventions

Tested product group OTHER

The investigational sunscreen will be applied at least once every morning. Product will be re-applied every 2 hours in case of prolonged exposure or when the likelihood of sunscreen having been removed is high, such as after sweating, water immersion, friction from clothing and exfoliation from sand. The investigational product should be applied on all exposed areas. Scalp, face (avoiding eye contours), neck, forearms, back of the hands, and décolleté will be treated every day . The recommended application dose is 2 mg/cm².

Sunscreen investigational product

Control group OTHER

Participants will be allowed to use the preferred sunscreen (a broad spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 50+) as per their usual routine (every 2 hours and after swimming or exercice).

Control Group
