Ablation or surgical excision is the typical treatment of anal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL). Recurrences are common due to the persistence of underlying human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Additional well-tolerated and effective non-surgical options for HPV-associated anal disease are needed.
This 3+3 dose escalation Phase I clinical trial evaluated the safety and tolerability of artesunate suppositories in the treatment of patients with biopsy-proven HSIL.
The maximal tolerated dose was 400 mg, administered in 3 cycles. All adverse events associated with the use 200- and 400-mg artesunate suppositories were Grade 1. At the 600-mg dose, patients experienced clinically significant nausea.
Artesunate suppositories are a safe treatment option for anal HSIL.
消融或手术切除是治疗肛门高级别鳞状上皮内病变(HSIL)的典型方法。由于人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染持续存在,复发较为常见。需要额外的耐受性良好且有效的非手术选择来治疗与 HPV 相关的肛门疾病。
这是一项 3+3 剂量递增的 I 期临床试验,评估了青蒿琥酯栓剂治疗活检证实为 HSIL 的患者的安全性和耐受性。
最大耐受剂量为 400mg,分 3 个周期给药。所有与使用 200mg 和 400mg 青蒿琥酯栓剂相关的不良事件均为 1 级。在 600mg 剂量下,患者出现了明显的临床恶心。
青蒿琥酯栓剂是治疗肛门 HSIL 的安全选择。
