Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Safety of Candin® (Candida albicans Skin Test Antigen) at 0.3 and 0.5 ml dose levels at up to 6 monthly injections for treating common warts (Verruca vulgaris) [ Time Frame: Monthly evaluations for up to 5 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    Symptoms will be evaluated daily for 7 days following each monthly treatment for safety


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Evaluation of the relative efficacy of the two dose levels of Candin® for up to 5 months [ Time Frame: Monthly evaluations for up to 5 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    Presence or absence of wart lesions will be determined monthly


Estimated Enrollment: 66
Study Start Date: September 2012

Estimated Primary Completion Date: September 2014 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Candin® 0.3 mL
Monthly injections of Candin® 0.3 ml until lesion resolves up to 6 injections.
Biological: Candida albicans Skin Test Antigen
0.3 ml or 0.5 ml intralesionally monthly. Number of injections: until wart lesion is resolved up to 6 injections.
Other Name: Candin®
Experimental: Candin® 0.5 mL
Monthly injections of Candin® 0.5 ml until lesion resolves up to 6 injections

Other Name: Candin®

Detailed Description:

The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety of Candin® (Candida albicans Skin Test Antigen) at either 0.3 or 0.5 mL dose levels at up to 6 monthly injections (a maximal, cumulative dose of 1.9 or 3.1 mL, including the delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) test) for treating common warts (Verruca vulgaris). A secondary objective is to understand the relative effectiveness of the 0.3 and 0.5 mL dose levels for treating common warts, both those that were injected and those that were not injected as well as other types of warts that were not injected to allow a determination of appropriate dose levels to use in a future dose-ranging efficacy trial.
