Atopic Dermatitis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Evaluation of the Effect of Methotrexate on Cytokines and Chemokines Involved in the Inflammatory Response in Adult Patients With Atopic Dermatitis
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with pruritus.
Methotrexate can be used to treat refractory disease to conventional therapy.
It will be conducted a single arm trial with twelve adult patients with moderate to severe AD
on methotrexate for 24 weeks.
Investigators intend to evaluate the effect methotrexate on cytokines and chemokines involved
in the inflammatory response, on IgE levels, on pruritus, and on EASI and SCORAD severity
scores.
Introduction: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with
pruritus. Methotrexate (MTX) can be used to treat refractory disease to conventional therapy,
but there are few studies showing its effect on the profile of cytokines involved in the
inflammatory response.
Objectives: To assess the effect of MTX on the cytokines involved in the inflammatory
response of adult AD patients treated with methotrexate for 24 weeks. As specific objectives,
investigators intend to assess the evolution of serum IgE levels, the EASI (Eczema Area and
Severity Index) and SCORAD (Scoring Atopic Dermatitis) severity scores and pruritus in them.
Methods: It will be conducted an open, prospective study with twelve adult patients with
moderate to severe AD on MTX for 24 weeks. Each participant is expected to attend 7 visits
during 6 months of follow-up. In clinical healthy and injured skin, two assessments will be
performed: 1) mRNA expression of IL-4, IL-10, IL-17A, IL-22, IL-31, oncostatin M receptor
(OSMR), alpha subunit IL-31 (IL-31RA) receptor, TNF-α, IFN-γ, TSLP, TARC and MDC by Real
Time-PCR at the initial week and week 24; 2) expression of IL-31, IL-31RA, OSMR, TSLP and
Ki67 by immunohistochemistry at the initial week and week 24.
Skin samples from non-atopic subjects will be utilized as controls for the assays, paired by
gender and age.
Additional analysis of serum levels of IgE (nephelometric method) at the initial week and
week 24 of the study will be performed.
AD severity scores (EASI and SCORAD) will be tested and pruritus will be analyzed by a visual
analog scale at the initial, week 12 and week 24.
