Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Maximum Observed Concentration (Cmax) for Ingenol Mebutate and Its Two Acyl Isomers (PEP015 and PEP025) Levels1 day

Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) for ingenol mebutate and its two acyl isomers (PEP015 and PEP025) levels over the 24 hour sampling time period based on actual values measured. Blood samples were taken: at 30 minutes, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours following study medication application on Day 2.

Time at Which Cmax is Attained (Tmax) for Ingenol Mebutate, and Its Two Acyl Isomers (PEP015 and PEP025) Levels.1 day

Time at which Cmax is attained (Tmax) for ingenol mebutate, and its two acyl isomers (PEP015 and PEP025) levels measured at 30 min, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours following study medication application on Day 2. If a maximum value occured at more than one timepoint Tmax is defined as the first timepoint with this value.

Area Under the Blood Conc. Versus Time Curve for Time 0-24 Hours (AUC(0-24)) for Ingenol Mebutate and Its Two Acyl Isomers (PEP015 and PEP025) Levels1 day

Area under the blood conc. versus time curve was calculated for time 0-24 hours (AUC(0-24)) for ingenol mebutate and its two acyl isomers (PEP015 and PEP025) levels measured at 30 min, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours following study medication application on Day 2.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Complete Clearance Rate in a 25 cm^2 Area Within the Selected Treatment Areabaseline and day 57

Number of participants with complete clearence. Complete clearance rate is defined as no clinically visible actinic keratosis (AK) lesions in a 25 cm\^2 area within the selected treatment area at Day 57 compared to baseline

Percentage (%) Change in Actinic Keratosis (AK) Lesions in a 25 cm^2 Area Within the Selected Treatment AreaBaseline and Day 57

Percentage (%) change in actinic keratosis (AK) lesions count at Day 57, compared to baseline, in a 25 cm\^2 area within the selected treatment area.

Number of Patients With Local Skin Responses (LSRs) Above 0 at Any Time Point During the Study.baseline and Day 2, 3, 8, 15, 29 and 57

Number of patients with LSR at any time point during the study above 0. The treatment area was assessed at baseline and at each subsequent study visit for the presence and grade of the following Local Skin Responses (LSRs): erythema, flaking/scaling, crusting, swelling, vesiculation/pustulation, and erosion/ulceration using the Local Skin Response Grading Scale (version 5). Each LSR was graded from 0 (best outcome) to 4 (worst outcome). A composite LSR score was calculated as the sum of each individual LSR grade, giving a possible range of 0-24.

Patients With Incidence of Pigmentation and ScarringBaseline, Day 2, 3, 8, 15, 29 and 57

Patients with Incidence of pigmentation and scarring, and grade of pigmentation and scarring, following study treatment through Day 57

Max Composite Local Skin Response (LSR) ScoreDay 3

Max composite Local Skin Response (LSR) score on day 3 only . The treatment area was assessed at baseline and at each subsequent study visit for the presence and grade of the following Local Skin Responses (LSRs): erythema, flaking/scaling, crusting, swelling, vesiculation/pustulation, and erosion/ulceration using the Local Skin Response Grading Scale (version 5). Each LSR was graded from 0 (best outcome) to 4 (worst outcome). A composite LSR score was calculated as the sum of each individual LSR grade, giving a possible range of 0-24. (One vehicle treated patent had a LSR on day 1 only).
