NCT03293368

Brief Summary

After signing the informed consent, the participant will be allocated to either intervention or control group, then each participant in the intervention group will receive intralesional injections of platelet rich plasma extracted from their own blood in each visit as following:

  1. 1.12 ml of blood will be assembled from the veins of antecubital fossa
  2. 2.PRP preparation will be done according to Mostafa et al., 2013
  3. 3.0.5 ml of PRP will be injected per 1 cm2 of ulcerated mucosa

Study Arms (2)

Platelet rich plasma

EXPERIMENTAL

0.5 ml of autologous platelet rich plasma prepared using a double spin technique described by Mostafa et al., 2013 will be injected in the center of eroded oral mucosa in patients suffering from oral lichen planus.

Biological: Platelet rich plasma

Croticosteroids

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

0.5 ml of triamcinolone acetonide 40 mg will be injected in the center of eroded oral mucosa in patients suffering from oral lichen planus.

Drug: Triamcinolone Acetonide

Interventions

Platelet rich plasma will be prepared from the patients own blood in the same visit using a double spin technique, then 0.5 ml of PRP will be injected per 1 cm2 of eroded oral mucosa.

Also known as: Platelet rich in growth factors

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients presenting with a clinical picture that assumes the diagnosis of erosive oral lichen planus (bilateral, more or less symmetrical erosive lesions with lacelike network of slightly raised gray white lesions (reticular pattern), and a histological findings that confirms the diagnosis (liquefaction degeneration of the basal cell layer with irregular-saw teeth like rete pegs.

You may not qualify if:

  • Systemic disorders such as hematological diseases, severe cardiovascular diseases, treatment with any drugs that could cause Lichenoid reaction.
  • Pregnancy or active breastfeeding
  • Patients who had lesion/lesions with dysplasia
  • Patients who received topical treatment for Oral Lichen planus in the last 2 weeks (Lee et al., 2013) or systemic treatment for OLP in the past 3 months.
  • Platelet count \< 150,000/mm3; Hgb \< 11 g/dl.
  • Immunosuppressed patients
  • Patients receiving therapy with anticoagulants and use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in the 5 days before taking the blood sample.
