Thymopentin in the treatment of recurrent condylomata acuminata
1989
Twelve patients who had been suffering from genital and/or perianal recurrent condyloma acuminatum for a minimum of 5 to a maximum of 24 months, in spite of treatment, were studied from the immunological viewpoint and treated with 50 mg s.c. Thymopentin three times a week for 4 or 6 weeks. Six of the patients were cured at the end of treatment, five after 5 months, and one was not cured. Analysis of the clinico-laboratory data shows a significant agreement between the course of clinical signs and the immunological picture. The various cure stages are probably attributable to the basic immune arrangement which was more impaired in the 5 patients who were cured more slowly and in the non-cured case. In the latter too, however, Thymopentin permitted correcting the balance of the relationship between the various lymphocyte subpopulations.
