Filter by:This study is designed to investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of MTC896 Gel in subjects with acne. In this study, MTC896 Gel will be applied at 3 concentrations, twice daily (bid) for 12 weeks and compared against a vehicle control.
A multi-centre, double-blind, randomized, parallel group, placebo controlled efficacy and safety study of oral CTX-4430 for the treatment of moderate to severe facial acne vulgaris.
The study objectives are to characterize new users of Cyproterone Acetate / Ethinylestradiol (CPA/EE) in 2011/2012 and in 2014 according to demographics, treatment characteristics, previous diagnosis of acne, hirsutism or other hyperandrogenic conditions, previous acne treatment and (concomitant) use of hormonal contraceptives identified in Healthcare Databases in the UK (THIN), the Netherlands (PHARMO) and Italy (HSD).
The purpose of this observational trial is to assess application and convenience of Epiduo® PUMP under daily clinical practice conditions in patients with moderate to severe inflammatory acne.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of an approximate 1.5 mg/kg/day dose of oral sarecycline compared to placebo in the treatment of moderate to severe facial acne vulgaris

This cross sectional questionnaire based study will aim at exploring psychological factors at play in the experience of acne, and their association with perceived and clinical severity. We will focus in particular on the role of psychological trauma in the patients with acne and their wellness. This project is being undertaken as part of a wider developing initiative in the Dermatology Department within NHS Tayside, which aims at identifying and consequently addressing the psychological needs of their patients. Participants will be consecutive patients with acne aged at least 18 years old, seen in the outpatient clinics of the Dermatology Department in NHS Tayside. Potential participants will be informed about the research by their clinician during an outpatients appointment and if interested, given an information sheet and consent form to review. Verbal consent will be sought by the clinician to give the potential participant's contact details to the Chief Investigator (CI)/Research Assistant (RA). If agreeable, the CI/RA will contact the potential participant after at least 24 hours to arrange a mutually agreed time for meeting. If the potential participant are still keen to participate and has read the information sheet, fit our inclusion criteria, are not deemed to be distressed by their attending clinician and want to take part, they will be included. Participants will complete a number of standardised questionnaires and a demographics information sheet in the outpatients' clinic with the CI/RA present. The questionnaires include questions on psychological trauma history and symptomatology, general psychological distress, appearance related distress and perceived severity of condition. Clinical severity of their acne will be obtained from patient files after questionnaire completion by NHS staff. Participants will also be given a debrief letter and additional forms of support and information to take home with them. Participants will not be contacted for follow-up.
This is a multi-center, randomised and controlled study in subjects with acne vulgaris. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of a supplementary patient education intervention (in addition to the standard-of-care patient education) on treatment adherence and satisfaction among acne patients receiving once-daily EpiduoTM gel treatment in primary care clinics.
The purpose of this study is to determine the pharmacokinetic properties of topically applied MTC896 Gel following application of 0.75% (w/w) MTC896 Gel once daily and twice daily and 1.5% (w/w) once daily over 4 weeks in the treatment of acne.
The objective of this experiment is to develop and validate in vitro methods to isolate inflammatory cells from skin biopsies for quantitative flow cytometry analysis. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) will also be performed using skin biopsy samples to validate flow cytometry results. Such methods could eventually be used to better understand the pathophysiology and the mechanism of action of various medications in patients with atopic dermatitis, acne rosacea or vulgaris, HS, and systemic sclerosis. In this study, up to 15 healthy volunteers, 50 patients with atopic dermatitis, 15 patients with acne rosacea, 15 patients with psoriasis (to be used as control), 15 patients with acne vulgaris, 10 patients with psoriasis to develop a method of analysis for systemic sclerosis, and 10 patients with HS will be recruited. For the healthy volunteers, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and HS groups, at least one (1) and a maximum of four (4) skin biopsies (4-5 mm) per subject will be performed. Biopsies will be performed on either the trunk or the limbs, excluding the hands and the feet. At least one (1) and a maximum of three (3) skin biopsies (2-3 mm) per subject will be collected for the acne rosacea and acne vulgaris groups from one or more body location(s) affected by the pathology. For patients with atopic dermatitis, an optional blood draw of up to 10 mL will be collected to measure serum IgE levels. For patients with atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and HS, an optional blood collection of up to 50 mL will be collected to perform flow cytometry on circulating blood cells to study differences in flow cytometry results between cells extracted from biopsies and circulating cells.
