  • ||||||||||  methotrexate topical amphimatrix formulation (MQX-5902) / MediQuest
    Journal:  Nanoparticle-coupled topical methotrexate can normalize immune responses and induce tissue remodeling in psoriasis. (Pubmed Central) -  Jan 8, 2021   
    We show that MTX coupled with gold nanoparticles (GNPs) demonstrates superior antiinflammatory efficacy than MTX alone in an imiquimod-induced mouse model, significantly reducing γδ T cells, CD4 T cells, and neutrophils...In an AGR129 human xenograft mouse model, two-week topical treatment with MTX-GNPs inhibited skin hyperplasia significantly better than topical calcipotriol-betamethasone and led to profound tissue remodeling, involving the upregulation of extracellular matrix reorganization and the downregulation of cornification and keratinization processes...In conclusion, MTX-GNPs influence immune and stromal components of the skin, leading to potent inhibition of pathogenesis in preclinical psoriasis. MTX-GNPs surpass the efficacy of conventional MTX and standard of care, emerging as a non-steroidal, topical alternative for psoriasis treatment.
  • ||||||||||  methotrexate / Generic mfg., methotrexate topical amphimatrix formulation (MQX-5902) / MediQuest
    Clinical, Journal:  Topical methotrexate 1% gel for treatment of vitiligo: A case report and review of the literature. (Pubmed Central) -  Apr 10, 2020   
    Significant improvement of the lesion with no local or systemic side effects were noted during the course of therapy. We propose that this well-tolerated drug can be used for vitiligo therapy; however, further investigations should be performed to ascertain the exact topically effective dose.
  • ||||||||||  methotrexate / Generic Mfg., methotrexate topical amphimatrix formulation (MQX-5902) / MediQuest
    Preclinical, Journal:  Effects of topical methotrexate loaded gold nanoparticle in cutaneous inflammatory mouse model. (Pubmed Central) -  Nov 23, 2019   
    Blood evaluation showed no differences in blood count and in ALT and AST levels before and after AuNPs-3MPS or AuNPs-3MPS@MTX treatment. Topical AuNPs-3MPS@MTX treatment is able to induce a reduction of keratinocytes hyperproliferation, epidermal thickness and also inflammatory infiltrate in vivo on imiquimod-induced psoriasis like mice model.
