Lichen Sclerosus of Vulva Clinical Trial
Official title:
Randomized Clinical Trial, Controlled to Conventional Treatment, to Evaluate the Efficacy of Plasma Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF) for the Treatment of Lichen Sclerosus Atrophicus of the Vulva
Lichen sclerosus is a chronic dermatosis of the skin and semimucous membranes, characterized by the presence of well-defined atrophic white papules or plaques, which appear mainly on the skin of the anogenital region of both sexes, and less frequently on the skin of the trunk. , mainly affecting postmenopausal women. There is no absolutely effective treatment. Only potent topical corticosteroids control symptoms and improve outcomes, although prolonged use can increase skin atrophy. In severe vulvar lesions, 0.05% clobetasol propionate is indicated, followed by a less potent topical corticosteroid. Relapses often occur if treatment is discontinued altogether, but respond well to reintroduction of treatment. Plasma Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF®) is a mixture of autologous proteins, prepared from a certain volume of platelet-rich plasma obtained from a small volume of blood, which does not contain leukocytes. To date, there have been no studies evaluating PRGF® treatment in vulvar lichen sclerosus. However, there are several publications that assess the efficacy of PRPs as a treatment for vulvar lichen sclerosus. This clinical study has been designed with the aim of evaluating the efficacy of PRGF® in reducing the main symptoms of vaginal lichen sclerosus atrophicus.
