Could a yeast extract injection finally banish common warts?
NCT ID NCT05889845
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether injections of Candin, a yeast extract, can clear common warts better than a placebo. 330 people aged 12 and older with 3 to 20 warts received injections every two weeks until their wart disappeared. The goal was to see if Candin leads to complete wart clearance and how long that takes.
