A Pilot Study of Hemoporfin PDT in Children(2-7 Years Old) With Port-wine Stain
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This pilot study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of hemoporfin photodynamic therapy (PDT) with different light doses for port-wine stain (PWS)in 2-7 years old children. The pharmacokinetic behavior and pharmacokinetic parameters of hemoporfin in children will be investigated as well.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: low light dose PDT is applied to the patients at low light dose : power density of 60mW/cm2 for 20 minutes |
Drug: Hemoporfin PDT
Photodynamic therapy is performed using hemoporfin under general anesthesia. Hemoporfin(5mg/kg)is infused for 20 minutes, followed by light illumination at 10 minutes from the start of infusion. Different light dose of PDT is applied to the patients.

Experimental: high light dose PDT is applied to the patients at high light dose : power density of 75mW/cm2 for 20 minutes |
Drug: Hemoporfin PDT
Photodynamic therapy is performed using hemoporfin under general anesthesia. Hemoporfin(5mg/kg)is infused for 20 minutes, followed by light illumination at 10 minutes from the start of infusion. Different light dose of PDT is applied to the patients.
