Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Complete Resolution of Actinic Keratosis (AK)

    Time frame: 8 weeks

    Complete resolution of actinic keratosis (AKclear100) at Week 8 is defined as 100% reduction from baseline in the number of clinically visible AKs

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants With Partial Clearance at Week 8

    Time frame: 8 weeks

    Partial clearance (AKclear75 ) is defined as a reduction in the number of clinically visible AKs in the selected treatment area by at least 75% compared to baseline.

  2. Percentage of Participants With Partial Clearance at Week 4

    Time frame: 4 weeks

    Partial clearance (AKclear75) defined as a reduction in the number of clinically visible AKs in the selected treatment area by at least 75% compared to baseline.

  3. Percent Reduction From Baseline in AK Count

    Time frame: 8 weeks
