Protocol summary

Study aim
Lichen planus is a chronic Immunological mucocutaneouys disease which cytokines such as TGF-β,IFN-α TNF-α and IL-6 play a role in its pathogenesis. According to the high prevalence of vitamin D deficiency in Iran (nearly 80 percent) and since the effect of vitamin D on the immune system and many of these cytokines was proved ,this study is aimed at investigating effect of vitamin D in patients with Oral Lichen Planus (OLP)with Vit D deficiency or insufficiency
Design
A randomized, double blinded, controlled trial(phase III) for 28 patients has been designed. Seal envelope will be used to randomize
Settings and conduct
This study is designed based on role of cytokines in parthenogenesis of oral lichen planus and effect of vitamin D on cytokines and vitamin D deficiency. This study will be done on oral lichen planus patients referred to Mashhad Dental School. Participants and care providers and assessing outcomes and statistician are blinded to type of drug because drugs are placed in similar seal envelope packs.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients with erosive-atrophic oral lichen planus, who have not used any systemic or topical drug for the treatment of lichen planus over the past 2 weeks and they have not used any vitamin supplement,in the past 3 months. They have vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency (25 (OH) D <30 mg / dl). Exclusion criteria: ِِِDysplasia or ichenoid reaction, calcium levels above 10 mg / dl, phosphorus less than 2.5 mg / dl, pregnancy, metabolic bone diseases such as: osteomalacia and primary hyperparathyroidism, history of severe renal-hepatic dysfunction, allergy to vitamin D supplements, usage of barbiturates and phenytoin, granulomatous diseases, malabsorption or chronic pancreatitis.
Intervention groups
Pearl Vit D (A) and placebo (B) are made in similar capsules by pharmacologist. Capsules are placed in some paper packs. Intervention group will use pearl Vit D and control group will use placebo, one pearl every week for 8 weeks.
Main outcome variables
Burning and pain, type and severity of lesions , levels of vitamin D and cytokines
