A Clinical Study of Tranilast in the Treatment of Mucinoses

Early Phase 1
Conditions
Mucinoses
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03490708
Lead Sponsor
The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University
Brief Summary

56 participants with Mucinoses will be selected to receive treatment of tranilast. After a period of time ,the investigators can determine the efficacy of the drug by detecting the the thickness and area of skin before and after treatment.

Detailed Description

56 participants with Mucinoses will be selected. After the signing of the informed consent ,participants will be collected the initial lesions photos,the thickness and area of skin lesions by ultrasound and magnetic resonance,and chemical examinations including blood routine examination, routine urine test, liver function, renal function. During tranilast (0.1g each time, three times a day,12 months) treatment, participants need regular follow-up (1 per month) including liver and kidney function, blood glucose level monitoring, and every three months to retest lesion thickness and area. With 3 month as a time point, participants were observed for four points. After the experiment, the experimental data will be arranged and the data of the thickness and area change of skin lesions will be statistically processed to determine whether it is meaningful.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Measure the volume change of skin lesions by ultrasoundThis experiment will last for 12 months

During tranilast (0.1g each time, three times a day, 12 months) treatment, patients need to test lesion volume.The reduction of volume greater than 50% is judged to be effective
