Study Arms (3)
Control group
PLACEBO COMPARATORAll lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment only.
Patch group
ACTIVE COMPARATORAll lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment with patches.
Microneedle patch group
EXPERIMENTALAll lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment with microneedle HA patches.
Interventions
The microneedle HA patch were made of hyaluronic acid with microneedles which can enhance the drug permeation. All lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment with microneedle HA patches. Microneedle HA patch (Therapass®, RMD-6.5A) was prepared at Raphas Co., Ltd. (Cheonan, South Korea). Daivobet® containing the active ingredients calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate was applied.
The patch were made of hyaluronic acid with no microneedles to rule out the occlusion effect of microneedle HA patch. All lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment with patches. Daivobet® containing the active ingredients calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate was applied. The hyaluronic acid patch was prepared at Raphas Co., Ltd. (Cheonan, South Korea) for this clinical trial, not for sale.
All lesions were treated with topical calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate ointment only. Daivobet® containing the active ingredients calcipotriol - betamethasone dipropionate was applied.
