Daylight photodynamic therapy is approved only for treatment of grade I–II actinic keratoses. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether fractional laser pre-treatment improves the outcomes of daylight photodynamic therapy for actinic keratoses of all grades. In addition, the study compared the outcomes of artificial and natural daylight photodynamic therapy. This randomized single-blinded split-side comparative study included 60 patients with ≥ 2 actinic keratoses of the head. Fractional laser pre-treatment was assigned randomly for actinic keratoses on 1 side of the head and, subsequently, the entire treatment area was treated with artificial or natural daylight photodynamic therapy. Fractional laser-mediated daylight photodynamic therapy achieved significantly higher complete clearance (50.0% vs 30.3%, p = 0.04), partial clearance (78.6% vs 50.0%, p \u003C 0.01) and lesionspecific clearance (86.2% vs 70.2%, p \u003C 0.01) than daylight photodynamic therapy alone at the 6-month follow-up. No significant differences were found in the outcomes of artificial vs natural daylight photodynamic therapy or grade I lesions vs grade II–III lesions. Thus, fractional laser pre-treatment appears to significantly increase the efficacy of artificial and natural daylight photodynamic therapy, and to be suitable for treatment of actinic keratoses of all grades.  \nKey words: actinic keratosis; laser therapy; photochemotherapy.  \nAccepted May 31, 2023; Published Aug 16, 2023  \nActa Derm Venereol 2023; 103: adv6579 .

Treatment of actinic keratoses is non-surgical, and daylight photodynamic therapy is an option. This study of 60 patients with actinic keratoses investigated whether ablative fractional laser pretreatment increases the efficacy of daylight photodynamic therapy. At the 6-month follow-up visit, laser pre-treated lesions showed significantly higher complete clearance rates (50%) compared with daylight photodynamic therapy alone (30%) . Laser pre-treatment was effective in the treatment of actinic keratoses of all thicknesses (p>0.1) . In addition, the treatment was mostly well tolerated (35/37 patients) and the cosmetic result good (36/39 patients) .  \ntreatment of large areas and is as effective as cPDT for thin grade I–II actinic keratoses (AKs) (2) . However, for thicker AKs, the efficacy ofdPDT can decrease (3) . According to European guidelines, natural dPDT (ndPDT) can be used to treat grade I–II AKs at temperatures above 10°C from March to October in Finland, but not during rain (2) .
