Participants Needed For Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Study

UCF Health is conducting a study to examine the effectiveness of a laser as treatment for cutaneous lupus erythematosus. Participants must have cutaneous lupus lesions, be at least 18 years of age, and cannot be pregnant. If you are female, you may need to provide a urine sample for a pregnancy test to determine if you are eligible to participate in this research study. If you are eligible and agree to participate, you will receive a cream to apply to your cutaneous lupus lesions followed by two separate rounds of laser treatment on the lesions. The study will take place at the UCF Health clinic on Tavistock Lakes Blvd. and will require three total visits to the clinic. A date and time will be arranged with you. You will receive the treatment for your cutaneous lupus at no cost. If you are interested in participating in this study or would like more information, please contact Dr. David Weinstein (david.weinstein@ucf.edu) or Samantha Prabakaran (sprabakaran@knights.ucf.edu).
