Study Summary

A phase 2 randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial of a two week course of curcuminoids in oral lichen planus will be conducted. 26 consecutive, eligible patients with OLP presenting to the oral medicine clinic at the University of California, San Francisco, will be enrolled. Study subjects will be randomized to receive either placebo or curcuminoids 6000mg/day for 2 weeks in three divided doses of 2000mg three times/day. Measurement of signs, symptoms, periodontal status and blood tests including complete blood count, liver enzymes, serum c reactive protein and serum interleukin-6 levels will be done at baseline and at the end of 2 weeks. A side-effects questionnaire will be administered at the 2-week follow-up. The Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) will be used to measure symptoms and the Modified Oral Mucositis Index (MOMI) to measure clinical signs of OLP. Primary outcome is change in symptoms from baseline. Secondary outcomes are change in clinical signs, occurrence of side-effects, change in serum C-reactive protein and serum interleukin-6 levels.

Primary Outcome

Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) is patient-reported numerical score for intensity of symptoms (range 0-10, where 0=no oral discomfort and 10=worst imaginable oral discomfort; symptom score over the last 1 week was recorded at baseline, and symptom score since baseline was recorded at follow-up. For Modified Oral Mucositis Index (MOMI) each of 16 oral sites is scored by an examiner for both erythema intensity (range 0-3 where 0=normal, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe) and area of ulceration (range 0-3 wh
