My name is Dr Mike Stierstorfer. I’m a dermatologist in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. I see a lot of patients for their annual or semi-annual skin cancer screening who have a lot of actinic keratoses. This is my experience.

I started prescribing KLISYRI® after learning of its effectiveness in clearing actinic keratoses and its short 5-day course of therapy. I was also intrigued by the drug’s tolerability profile and that most local skin reactions were mild to moderate in clinical trials.

I like to prescribe KLISYRI® for patients with many actinic keratoses in need of field therapy, but also for patients with just a few actinic keratoses. It’s also good for patients who want to avoid more invasive treatments like cryotherapy. Patients have been very happy with KLISYRI® treatment. They especially like its short 5-day course of therapy and its ready accessibility through specialty pharmacies.

If you haven’t yet used KLISYRI®, I’d recommend you give it a try. Maybe ask for some samples and try them first. Try it in any situation where you would have previously chosen a different type of field therapy. I’d especially encourage you to use it in those patients that we all have who vow to never go through another course of field therapy after a bad experience. Just as my patients have uniformly thanked me for prescribing KLISYRI® for them, your patients may thank you as well.

INDICATION

KLISYRI is a microtubule inhibitor indicated for the topical treatment of actinic keratosis of the face or scalp

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

Ophthalmic Adverse Reactions

KLISYRI may cause eye irritation. Avoid transfer of the drug into the eyes and to the periocular area during and after application. Wash hands immediately after application. If accidental exposure occurs, instruct patient to flush eyes with water and seek medical care as soon as possible

Local Skin Reactions

Local skin reactions, including severe reactions (erythema, flaking/scaling, crusting, swelling, vesiculation/pustulation, and erosion/ulceration) in the treated area can occur after topical application of KLISYRI. Occlusion after topical application of KLISYRI is more likely to result in irritation. Avoid use until skin is healed from any previous drug, procedure, or surgical treatment.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥2%) were local skin reactions, application site pruritus, and application site pain.
