The treatment of chronic inflammatory skin diseases is a difficult point in clinical diseases, which mainly include patients with pathological scars, sarcoidosis and chronic eczema. Chronic nodular lesions and long-term itching symptoms bring great physical and mental pain to patients.

Long-term repeated treatments are required. At present, the most commonly used treatment is intralesional injection of glucocorticoids. Long-term glucocorticoid injections have some side effects, including pain, hypopigmentation, skin atrophy, pigmentation, telangiectasia and menstrual disorders in women. There are a large number of clinical patients who still lack safe and effective drugs, including children, pregnant women, patients with weakened or defective immunity, and even patients with mild inflammatory skin diseases with mainly itching symptoms.

The systemic and topical application of antihistamine drugs provides new ideas for the treatment of inflammatory skin. As the most commonly used clinical antihistamine, chlorpheniramine has a long history in the treatment of allergic diseases and can improve the body's inflammatory state. At the same time, the drug has high safety and is suitable for children and pregnant women, or patients with underlying diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and immunodeficiency diseases.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

At present, there are more and more reports about the application of antihistamines to the treatment of pathological scars. Exposing fibroblasts from normal skin and keloids to the antihistamine diphenhydramine can inhibit the growth of keloid fibroblasts . Based on the existing research foundation in the field and the results of our previous laboratory experiments, we hypothesize that intralesional injection of chlorpheniramine can improve the pruritus symptoms and the severity of skin lesions in inflammatory skin diseases, and can be used as a new application of traditional medicine.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
