The purpose of this study is to find out if taking a birth control pill, YAZ, is safe and effective for treating acne on the trunk (the main part of the body that does not include the arms, legs, and head). Acne vulgaris is a very common skin disorder. It is caused when oil-producing skin glands (sebaceous glands) become plugged. The plug can cause blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, and cysts on the face, neck, upper chest, and upper back. YAZ is a combination birth control pill. A "combination" pill means that it is made up of more than one major ingredient. Nearly all birth control pills are made up of a combination of estrogen and progestin hormones. Estrogens are steroid hormones produced by the ovaries responsible for the typical female features. Progestins are steroid hormones produced by the ovary and placenta responsible for making the uterus fit for pregnancy. YAZ also contains an estrogen called ethinyl estradiol, and a progestin called drospirenone. People who develop acne have sebaceous glands that are over-stimulated (that is, the sebaceous glands have increased activity) by male sex hormones (androgens). The progestin in YAZ blocks the male sex hormones (androgens) that cause acne. The study drug being used in this study is called YAZ. It has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat moderate acne in women who want an oral contraceptive for birth control. In this study, YAZ will be compared to a placebo for safety and effectiveness. A placebo looks like the study drug but contains no active drug (like a sugar pill). We use placebos in research studies to learn if the effects seen in research subjects are truly from the study drug or from other reasons.
A study to compare the skin irritation potential of two marketed gels for acne treatment, each applied to half of the face of healthy volunteers.
12-week study to compare the efficacy and safety of a course of a twice daily treatment with APS in the form of a lotion to its vehicle for the treatment of acne.
Benzoyl peroxide, clindamycin and tazarotene are known to be effective treatment alternative for acne vulgaris. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of a combination product including these actives for the treatment of acne vulgaris. You may be suitable to take part in this study because you have acne vulgaris on your face. Acne vulgaris usually affects the face, but it can also affect the skin on the chest, arms, legs, and back.
The purpose of this study is to determine and compare the safety and efficacy of multiple broad area photodynamic therapy treatments with aminolevulinic acid (ALA-PDT) and vehicle (VEH-PDT) in subjects with moderate to severe facial acne vulgaris.
The primary objective of this study is to investigate potential differences between four treatment intervention groups in the adherence to treatment with Differin® Gel, 0.1%. Differin is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat acne.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of CT Gel in subjects with acne vulgaris. The hypothesis is that CT Gel is superior to Clindamycin Gel, Tretinoin Gel and Vehicle Gel for the treatment of acne vulgaris.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of Adapalene 0.1% / Benzoyl Peroxide (quoted as BPO) 2.5% Gel associated with Doxycycline Hyclate 100 mg Tablets compared to Adapalene 0.1% /Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% Vehicle Gel associated with Doxycycline Hyclate 100 mg Tablets, in the treatment of severe acne vulgaris. The safety of the two treatment regimens will also be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of Adapalene 0.1% /Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% Gel compared to its Vehicle Gel as an acne maintenance treatment in Subjects previously treated with Adapalene-BPO Gel or Adapalene-BPO Vehicle Gel both associated with Doxycycline Hyclate 100 mg. The safety of the two investigational treatments will also be assessed.
