Metvix^® is a topical therapy for pre-cancerous and skin cancer lesions such as actinic keratoses, basal cell carcinomas and Bowen's disease.

Topical application of Metvix^® results in the selective accumulation of photoactive molecules in the neoplastic tissue. Exposure to red light in the presence of oxygen generates reactive oxygen species which kill neoplastic cells. Healthy surrounding tissue is spared.
