Summary

The purpose of this study is to look at how people respond to the treatment of warts through use of the Candida antigen to get an immune response to rid the body of human papillomavirus (HPV). The immune system is the part of the body that fights infections like HPV which causes warts. This research study will examine the response of your wart when injected with a portion of a common yeast (candida) which is the study drug. Your immune system response will also be looked at by doing a test called an ELISPOT assay. This test is done on blood samples. The results of this test may help us to determine how the Candida antigen affects your wart.
