  ABSTRACT: Solasodine rhamnosyl glycosides (BEC) are a new class of antineoplastics that show superior efficacy than many established anticancer drugs as shown by intravenous, intraperitoneal and intralesion administrations. Previous studies have described the efficacy of BEC on nonmelanoma skin cancers by topical application. Two cases are now reported which show that BEC in a cream formulation Curaderm is very effective for the treatment of large nonmelanoma skin cancers that are considered difficult to treat by existing modalities. Moreover, the cosmetic outcomes are very impressive.
