Wart war: which treatment wins – acid, fungus extract, or both?
NCT ID NCT07329907
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested three ways to treat warts: a topical acid solution, injections of candida antigen (a yeast extract), and a combination of both. 126 people with warts took part. The goal was to see which approach cleared warts best, including warts not directly treated, and how often they came back. Results will help doctors choose the most effective option.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
salicylic acid/lactic acid topical solution and candida antigen injection
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a more effective, affordable treatment for warts that clears both treated and distant warts.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed Phase 2 trial, so results may not apply to everyone. Warts can recur, and treatments may cause pain or skin reactions.
