5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to determine possible molecular changes on large scale gene expression profiling after treatment with Metvix photodynamic therapy (PDT) of actinic keratoses (AK) and cancerised field in renal transplant recipients.
Detailed Description
In this study, the whole target area defined by the investigator will be treated by Metvix PDT: this means that both lesions and sub-clinical lesions will be exposed to Metvix PDT. Biopsies will be performed in both regions: lesional and peri-lesional ones. This will allow us to compare pre and post treatment molecular changes that occurred in these regions and so to evaluate if Metvix PDT acts on the sub-clinical lesions.
