Filter by:The present study was set-up to evaluate clinical efficacy of Pixie CO2 versus a comparator product (Wortie®) for the treatment of common and plantar warts.
The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the adjuvant administration of oral nanocurcumin in 90% TCA therapy that increases the proportion of clinical improvement in patients with Anogenital Warts (AGW), mediated by NFĸB, IFN-γ, and FOXP3+Treg. Specific objectives of this clinical trial include: - To prove that the oral administration of nanocurcumin decreases the levels of IFN-γ, FOXP3+Treg, and NFĸB in lesions of AGW patients, and - To demonstrate that the reduction in IFN-γ, FOXP3+Treg, and NFĸB levels in lesions is associated with the proportion of clinical improvement in AGW patients undergoing TCA 90% therapy with adjuvant of oral nanocurcumin. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does adjuvant oral nanocurcumin administration in 90% TCA therapy increase the proportion of clinical improvement in patients with AGW compared to controls (90% TCA therapy alone)? - Is there a greater decrease in IFN-γ, FOXP3+Treg, and NFĸB levels in lesions of patients with AGW given adjuvant oral nanocurcumin compared to controls? - Is the decrease in IFN-γ, FOXP3+TReg, and NFĸB levels in lesions of patients with AGW, with adjunctive oral nanocurcumin administration in 90% TCA therapy, associated with the degree of clinical improvement in patients with AGW? Participants will be divided into 2 groups. The first one was given capsules without active ingredients/nanocurcumin (control group), and the second one was given capsules with nanocurcumin (experimental group), both group received a dosage of 200mg capsules per day after breakfast, for 8 weeks. The researchers conducted a comparison between those 2 groups to assess whether the adjuvant administration of oral nanocurcumin in 90% TCA therapy enhances the proportion of clinical improvement in patients with AGW.
To determine clinical efficacy of glycolic acid 15%plus salicylic acid 2% gel in treatment of Plane wart .
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare and test the efficacy of two treatments for plantar warts. The main questions it aims to answer are: Which treatment has a higher cure rate for eliminating plantar warts? Which treatment causes less pain during the procedure? Participants with plantar warts will: Be randomly assigned to receive either cryotherapy or laser therapy Undergo 4 treatment sessions at weekly intervals Have their warts assessed for complete clearance after treatment Rate their pain levels during each session Researchers will compare the cryotherapy and laser therapy groups to see if there are differences in: Rates of complete wart clearance Pain levels reported during treatment Adverse effects
ABSTRACT Objective: To study the efficacy while comparing Potassium hydroxide 5% with liquid nitrogen in treatment of plane warts. Study design: Randomized-controlled trial (RCT), (Double-blind). Study setting and duration: Dept dermatology, CMH-Abbottabad, Nov-2022 / April-2023. Methodology: The sample size of 60 patients (children and adults aged 4 to 30 years) was calculated using Openepi app sample size RCT calculator, after informed consent by using non-probability consecutive sampling technique. Patients randomly assigned into two groups i.e. In group-A 30 patients were given topical 5%-potassium hydroxide solution on affected area once at night upto 4 weeks and in group-B 30 patients treated with cotton bud method of cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen once every two weeks. Patients were reassessed at every two weeks and final assessment was done at 12th week whereas followed up for 3 months to monitor recurrence. Demographic information and frequency percentages were calculated for qualitative variables by using SPSS26. To determine statistical significance taking p-value <0.05 as significant, and χ2-square test was used.
A phase 2a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of topical nitric oxide releasing solution (NORS) for the treatment of human papillomavirus (HPV) caused verrucae plantaris (plantar warts). Participants will be treated over a 21 day period with a final evaluation on Day 35. They will be separated into 3 treatment groups (placebo, 1x and 2x dose). Participants will be evaluated for change in wart size, wart clearance, and HPV genotype.
Cutaneous warts comprise an extremely common condition caused by infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV). Although most verrucae will disappear spontaneously, many patients do seek treatment. Current wart treatments do not target the cause of the lesion directly, resulting in variable treatment efficacies and high wart recurrence rates. AV2 is a broad-spectrum antiviral drug, that is capable of deactivating HPV. It is however not able to destruct the already infected cells, which raises the need for an additional ablative treatment i.e. salicylic acid (SA). Implementation of AV2-Salicylic acid (AV2-SA) combination therapy would ensure permanent lesion clearance by on the one hand inactivation of HPV by AV2, and on the other hand elimination of the lesion by SA treatment. The primary aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of AV2-SA treatment versus standard SA treatment, by comparing cure and recurrence rates of cutaneous warts between the two treatment groups (at 12 weeks and six months after randomization). The second aim is to assess the safety and tolerability of AV2-SA therapy. The third aim is to identify subgroups of cutaneous warts that have favorable response to treatment, by comparing cure rates in an HPV genotype-specific manner. This randomized controlled trial will enroll 260 participants with cutaneous warts who will either receive the AV2-SA combination therapy or SA control treatment. Real time monitoring will be possible by daily photographs sent via WhatsApp TM (a messaging application) as well as online follow-up questionnaires administered on several occasions. HPV genotyping will be performed on swab self-samples.
Background: Viral warts are common infectious skin disease induced by human papillomavirus (HPV). Lasers have been used for warts treatment in recent years with variable success rates. Objective: The goal of this clinical trial is to prospectively evaluate combined treatment with Er:YAG laser and long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser compared to Er:YAG laser for the treatment of recalcitrant warts after one session. The main question it aims to answer is: Does adding a treatment of long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser to Er:YAG laser in the same treatment session to the same wart have more curing effect than using the Er:YAG laser alone? This study included 240 lesions from 24 patients. All the lesions were diagnosed clinically as recalcitrant warts after failure of topical treatment and Cryotherapy. 120 lesions underwent a combined therapy of Er:YAG and long-pulsed (LP) Nd:YAG lasers, and the remaining 120 lesions underwent Er:YAG laser therapy only. The clearance rate was evaluated 5 weeks after and classified by three-graded evaluation: complete response, partial response, and poor response. Researchers will compare the 120 treated warts with the combined lasers therapy to the 120 treated warts treated with Er:YAG laser alone to see if adding the Nd:YAG laser therapy has an additional curing value.
A randomized control trial to compare the efficacy difference between intralesional bleomycin and cryotherapy in treating plantar warts.
A total of 60 female patients (30 patients in each group) with cutaneious warts diagnosed by a consultant dermatologist on physical examination were included in this study. In Group A patients were subjected to liquid nitrogen cryotherapy (-196 0C) while patients in Group B were subjected to vitamin D3 (5mg/ml) for 3 sessions at every 3 weeks interval. Effectiveness in both groups was ascertained in terms of > 50% reduction in wart size by an expert dermatologist on physical examination at the end of third session. Patients were followed for further 6 weeks after last session to look for any sort of recurrence and remission.
