Triple intralesional antigen immunotherapy versus monoantigen
Abstract:
Introduction: Warts can be resistant to treatment or recur despite the use of various destructive and immunotherapeutic modalities. Combination immunotherapy might con- tribute to better response rates. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness and safety of a triple intralesional immunotherapy com- bination composed of purified protein derivative (PPD), Candida antigen, and measles–mumps–rubella vaccine (MMR), versus each agent alone, in the management of multiple recalcitrant warts. Methods: In total, 160 patients with numerous resistant extragenital warts were included in the research. They were randomly assigned to one of four groups (each with 40 patients): PPD, Candida antigen, and MMR, or combination of the three antigens. Injections into the biggest wart were repeated every 2 weeks until clearance or for a total of five sessions. Results: Complete wart clearance was reported in 31 patients (77.5%) who received triple- antigen immunotherapy, 23 patients (57.5%) who received intralesional PPD, 29 patients (72.5%) injected with Candida antigen, and 25 patients (62.5%) who received MMR. The com- bined therapy was found to be superior to the other therapies and had the lowest recurrence rate, but the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions: Triple intralesional antigen immunotherapy is as safe as, and more effective than, monoantigen immunotherapy, and can be added to the armamentarium against recalcitrant human infections.
