Brief summary

To follow up the efficacy and safety of Candida antigen, bivalent HPV vaccine in treatment of common warts either mono or combined intralesional therapy

Detailed description

* Group A: 54 patients will be treated with Candida antigen. All patients will be directly injected with Candida antigen into the largest wart using an insulin syringe. Injections will be done at 2-week intervals until complete clearance will be achieved or for a maximum of five treatment sessions. * Group B: 54 patients will be treated with bivalent HPV vaccine solution intralesional into the largest wart using an insulin syringe. Injections will be done at 2-week intervals until complete clearance will be achieved or for a maximum of five treatment sessions. * Group C: 54 patients will be treated with both agents intralesionally into the largest wart using an insulin syringe at 2-week intervals until complete clearance will be achieved or for a maximum of five treatment sessions. it is thought that candida antigen act through a cell-mediated immune response and bivalent HPV vaccine act mainly through humoral immunity, so we want to study their effect as single or mixed agents

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
complete responseupto 3 monthsif there is disappearance of warts and return of the normal skin markings
partial responseupto 3 monthsif warts regressed in size by 50-99% (the size will be measured as the summation of size of all lesions in cm)
no responseupto 3 monthsif there is \< 50% decrease in wart size. (the size will be measured as the summation of size of all lesions in cm)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
recurrence rate after recoveryfollow up for 6 months after recoveryappearance of new lesions or recurrence of previous one
