Official title
Phase I/II Clinical Trial Evaluating Rituximab in Ocular Cicatricial Pemphigoid
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Cicatricial pemphigoid is an autoimmune blistering disease which affects the skin, mucous membranes, and, in a small subset of patients, the eye. Progressive ocular disease can lead to irreversible damage and blindness. Conventional treatments include systemic steroids, dapsone, and immunosuppressive agents. These treatments, however, are not successful with all patients. Rituximab has been very effective in the treatment of other autoimmune disorders, and has recently been shown to be effective for autoimmune blistering pemphigus. We propose that it will also be effective in the treatment of cicatricial pemphigoid.
