A Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy Imiquimod Cream, 2.5% in Participants With Actinic Keratoses

The purpose of this study it so compare the safety and efficacy profiles of a generic imiquimod 2.5% cream to the reference listed Zyclara® (imiquimod) cream in the treatment of actinic keratosis (AK).

Aldara® (imiquimod) Cream, 5% was the first imiquimod product approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the topical treatment of AK, superficial basal cell carcinoma and external genital and perianal warts. The FDA approved regimen for the treatment of AK is application of 250 milligrams (mg) of cream twice a week for 16 weeks to a 25 square centimeters (cm\^2) area. In 2011, a lower strength imiquimod cream, Zyclara (imiquimod) Cream, 2.5% was approved by the FDA. When used for the treatment of AK, Zyclara is applied for a shorter duration and in an expanded treatment area (for example, face or scalp) in comparison to Aldara®. This study will be conducted in compliance with the protocol, Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and the applicable regulatory requirement(s). Marketed by Medicis, Zyclara® (imiquimod) cream 2.5% is a safe and effective topical therapy for the treatment of AK of the face and scalp. Actavis has developed a generic formulation of imiquimod 2.5% cream and the current study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this formulation.

* Participant has any skin pathology or condition (for example; facial/scalp psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, acne, rosacea, etc.) that, in the investigator's opinion, could interfere with the evaluation of the test article, worsen due to the treatment or requires the use of interfering topical, systemic or surgical therapy.
* Participant has any condition which, in the investigator's opinion, would make it unsafe or precludes the participant's ability to fully participate in this research study.
* Participant is known to be noncompliant or is unlikely to comply with the requirements of the study protocol (for example; due to alcoholism, drug dependency, mental incapacity) in the opinion of the investigator.
