HIV drugs tested on psoriasis in groundbreaking skin study
NCT ID NCT04274595
Summary
This small, completed study tested whether medications used to treat HIV (reverse transcriptase inhibitors) could help control psoriasis. Researchers gave these drugs to 8 people with long-term plaque psoriasis to see if they could reduce skin inflammation and improve lesions. The main goal was to check if the treatment blocked a specific cellular marker in skin biopsies, not primarily to measure symptom relief.
