Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) With Metvix Cream 160 Milligrams/Gram (mg/g)
Participants with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) lesions were administered to PDT with Metvix® cream 160 mg/g applied topically for three hours, followed by illumination using noncoherent light with a fluency of 75 Joule per centimeter square (J/cm\*2) and fluency rate of less than 50-200 milliwatt per centimeter square (mW/cm\*2) up to 14 weeks. All participants received two consecutive treatments, one week apart thereby completing one PDT treatment cycle.
