    Author: Pueyo S, Criscuolo M, Davidovich C, Zorzópulos J, Pesce A, Díaz A.
    Journal: J Biol Regul Homeost Agents; 1990; 4(2):47-50. PubMed ID: 2260502.
    Abstract:
    Nine patients with recurrent and long lasting common warts were treated with intralesional Hu-IFN-alpha. The schedule was a single dose per wart, ranged between 10(5) and 2 x 10(5) IU. Placebo was also administered in 3 of these patients. Complete remission was observed in 7 of the 9 patients. The pattern of warts involution and the possible interferon mechanism of action are discussed. A significant pain relief, produced by interferon injection was observed in the patients with plantar warts and in one patient with subungueal wart.
