NCT05893108

Brief Summary

The objectives are to compare the efficacy of pre and post-treatment and between 5% losartan potassium loaded in ethosomal gel and 10 mg/ml triamcinolone acetonide injection based on the indicator score of The patient and observer scar assessment scale 3.0 (POSAS 3.0), degree of erythema and pigmentation, area size, thickness and density of human keloids.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The patient and observer scar assessment scale score (POSAS 3.0)

    The Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale 3.0 consists of sixteen items of the patient questionnaire (PSAS) with maximum and minimum values are 80 and 16, consecutively; and seven items of the observer questionnaire (OSAS) with maximum and minimum values are 35 and 7, consecutively. The lower score, the better result of the keloid.

    change from baseline the POSAS score at 4,8, and 12 weeks, consecutively.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Degree of erythema and hyperpigmentation

    change from baseline the degree of erythema and hyperpigmentation at 4, 8 and 12 weeks, consecutively.

  • the width of the keloid surface area (mm2)

    change from baseline width of keloid surface area at 4, 8 and 12 weeks, consecutively.

  • The thickness of keloid (mm)

    change from baseline thickness of keloid at 4, 8 and 12 weeks, consecutively.

  • The degree of pliability of keloid (durometer unit)

    change from baseline pliability at 4, 8 and 12 weeks, consecutively.
