Brief Title: Triple Antigen vs Monoantigen Immunotherapy for Warts
Official Title: Triple Intralesional Antigen Immunotherapy Versus Monoantigen in the Treatment of Multiple Recalcitrant Warts
Study ID: NCT05254561
Brief Summary: Warts can be resistant to treatment or return despite the use of many therapeutic modalities. Combining immunotherapy might contribute to better response rates, particularly in recalcitrant warts, which is a real therapeutic challenge. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness and safety of a triple intralesional immunotherapy combination composed of PPD, Candida antigen and MMR versus either agent alone in the management of multiple recalcitrant warts.
Detailed Description: This study included 160 patients with multiple (\>3 warts) recalcitrant (at least 6 months duration and who did not respond to at least 2 treatment modalities) warts of different sites, size and duration, with or without distant warts after approval of the Institutional Review Board of Faculty of medicine, Zagazig university. They were randomly assigned to one of four groups (each with 40 patients): PPD, Candida antigen, MMR, or combination of the 3 antigens. Injections into the biggest wart were repeated every two weeks until clearance or for a total of five sessions.
