Brief Summary: RATIONALE Biological therapies such as imiquimod cream work in different ways to stimulate the immune system and stop tumor cells from growing

PURPOSE This randomized phase I trial is studying how well imiquimod cream works in treating patients with basal cell skin cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Compare levels of apoptosis in patients with basal cell skin cancer treated with vs without imiquimod 5 cream

Secondary

Compare levels of apoptosis in patients treated with this drug on two different administration schedules

OUTLINE This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled parallel-group study

Patients undergo fine needle aspiration and punch biopsies of the target lesion Patients are then randomized to 1 of 8 treatment arms and begin therapy within 30 days after biopsy

Arm I Patients apply topical imiquimod to the target lesion once every 12 hours on days 1 and 2 for a total of 4 doses
Arm II Patients apply topical placebo to the target lesion once every 12 hours on days 1 and 2 for a total of 4 doses
Arm III Patients apply topical imiquimod to the target lesion once every 24 hours on days 1-4 for a total of 4 doses
Arm IV Patients apply topical placebo to the target lesion once every 24 hours on days 1-4 for a total of 4 doses
Arm V Patients apply topical imiquimod to the target lesion once every 12 hours on days 1-4 for a total of 8 doses
Arm VI Patients apply topical placebo to the target lesion once every 12 hours on days 1-4 for a total of 8 doses
Arm VII Patients apply topical imiquimod to the target lesion once every 24 hours on days 1-8 for a total of 8 doses
Arm VIII Patients apply topical placebo to the target lesion every 24 hours on days 1-8 for a total of 8 doses

All patients undergo excision of the target tumor within 18-30 hours after the last topical treatment

Patients are followed at 7-14 days

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 48 patients 8 per treatment arm and 4 per placebo arm will be accrued for this study
