About this study

Official title: A Comparative Study on Clinical Efficacy of Clobetasol and Betamethasone in Orabase in Combination With Clotrimazole, in Oral Lichen Planus

Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is an autoimmune, chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous disease characterized by pain and burning sensation. The major types of OLP are the following: reticular, atrophic, erosive-ulcerative, bullous and pigmentous form.Its etiology remains unclear. The presence of auto-cytotoxic T cell clones in the lesions suggests the role of autoimmunity. Numerous treatment options of OLP include topical and systemic agents depending on severity of lesions . Topical corticosteroids abide the mainstay of therapy,and are widely accepted as the primary treatment of choice.Hence this study is designed to evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy of topical Clobetasol 0.05% in orabase and Betamethasone 0.05% in orabase in combination with Clotrimazole 1% in the management of symptomatic Oral Lichen Planus.

Read the detailed description

Patients of either sex, irrespective of age attending the Department of Oral Medicine \& Radiology, Panineeya Mahavidhyalaya Institute of Dental Sciences and Research Centre, Hyderabad who are clinically and histopathologically diagnosed with Oral Lichen Planus shall be included in the study group after obtaining an informed consent from the patients.

Study design: Prospective study.

Sample size:

A total of 30 patients will be randomly divided into 2 groups with 15 patients in each group.

Methodology:

30 patients who are diagnosed with Oral Lichen Planus by clinical and histopathological examination will be randomly assigned into 2 drug groups and burning sensation will be assessed by VAS Scale and also clinical improvement will be assessed at interval of 1 week till 4 weeks.

GROUP A: This group of patients will receive topical Clobetasol 0.05% in orabase and Clotrimazole 1%.

GROUP B: This group of patients will receive topical Betamethasone 0.05% in orabase and Clotrimazole 1%.

Inclusion criteria:

  1. Patients with Oral Lichen Planus, who are willing to participate in the study.
  2. Patients who are physically healthy and well oriented in time, space and as a person.
  3. Patients clinically and histopathologically diagnosed with Oral Lichen Planus.
  4. Patients with symptoms i.e. pain and burning sensation due to oral lichen planus.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Betamethasone Dipropionate and Clobetasol Propionate in people with Oral Lichen Planus, run by Garlapati Komali at 1 site in India.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

What does the primary outcome measure?

Based on Visual analog scale and size of the lesion (time frame: Each patient will be assessed for a total time frame of 1 month at a regular interval of 1 week.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
