Pilot Study Comparing Remicade (Infliximab) vs. Standard Care in the Treatment of Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis
To determine whether treatment of patients who have toxic epidermal necrolysis with a drug called remicaide increases the number of patients who are alive 30 days laters.
This is a pilot (preliminary) study. Patients with a diagnosis of TEN will be asked to consider participating. The study intervention is a single intravenous dose of remicaide (5 mg/kg). Standard supportive care will be given. The percentage of patients alive at 30 days after treatment with remicaide will be compared to historical controls.
