Groups2
Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.
| Group | Title | Description | With the outcome | Analysed | ClinicalTrials.gov code |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Group 1 | Corticosteriod Arm | Patients will receive 1 gram of IV SoluMedrol over 1 hour, once every month for 12 months.~SoluMedrol: Infusion of drug subcutaneously, once a month. | 0 | 7 | EG000 |
| Group 2 | Extracorporeal Photopheresis | Patient will receive an Extracorporeal Photopheresis treatment at a set frequency over the course of 1 year. The treatment takes about 2-3 hours per session to complete. The treatment schedule is as follows:~ECP will be administered according to the following schedule:~Study Arm: Weeks 1-8: 3 times per week Weeks 9-16: Twice per week Weeks 17-36: Treatment on two consecutive days every 2 weeks (or optionally, one treatment per week) Weeks 37-43: Once every 2 weeks Weeks 44-52: Once every 4 Weeks~Extracorporeal Photopheresis: This intervention is the placement of up to two IV's to extract your blood as a set volume, separate out the white cells and return the red cells to your body. Then the white cells are treated with a drug called UVADEX (methoxsalen), excited by a UV light and returned to your body. Once IV is to withdraw your blood and the other is to return your blood to your body. | 1 | 6 | EG001 |
