What this Trial Is About

Researchers are studying the safety and effectiveness of Candida antigen and bivalent HPV vaccine in treating common warts. The trial compares these treatments given alone or combined to see how well they clear warts and prevent recurrence. This is a Phase 2 randomized study involving patients with multiple warts. Participants are divided into three groups: one receives Candida antigen injections directly into the largest wart, another receives bivalent HPV vaccine injections, and the third group receives both treatments together. Injections are given every two weeks for up to five sessions or until the warts clear. During the study, patients will be monitored for complete, partial, or no response to treatment over three months. Researchers will also follow up for six months after recovery to check for wart recurrence. Assessments include clinical evaluation of warts and treatment safety throughout the trial.
