Filter by:This is a split-face, single-blind study assessing the use of an antioxidant serum with a series of acne laser treatments to reduce sebum production in healthy male and female subjects between the ages of 18 and 65 years, inclusive, with Fitzpatrick skin types I-VI.
This is a multicenter, open-label study designed to determine the long-term safety of ASC40 (Denifanstat) tablets in patients with moderate to severe acne vulgaris enrolled in the ASC40-303 Phase III study. All subjects are eligible for study eligibility screening after enrollment in ASC40-303 Phase III study, and all eligible subjects with moderate to severe acne vulgaris will receive ASC40 (Denifanstat) tablets after signing informed consent. The investigational drug will be administered orally once daily (QD) for up to 40 weeks. There will be a total of 7 visits for screening and follow-up. The tests required by the program included routine blood tests, blood biochemistry, lipid profile, pregnancy test and urine routine, etc.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of Cetyl Tranexamate Mesylate on acne-related hyperpigmentation through a specific delivery form known as TeraCeutic TXVector.
For the skin to function optimally, it needs to be nourished and supplied with the necessary compounds to support health. However, many individuals are deficient in those compounds, leading to negative skin outcomes. Most products on the market today only supply one or two compounds that can benefit skin health. Hemptress has developed a multi-function oil designed to help with outcomes related to acne, aging, and eczema, among others. This twelve-week trial will examine the effectiveness of Hemptress' test product. This study will be a two-group trial with 45 participants per group. One group will focus on understanding the test product's effects on skin aging symptoms. The other group will focus on understanding the test product's effects on acne and eczema. The trial will be hybrid, and the participants will follow the use instructions provided by the research team.
Participation in medical trials usually favors a particular demographic group. But there is limited research available to explain what trial attributes affect the completion of these specific demographic groups. This trial will scrutinize the experiences of patients diagnosed with acne as they take part in a separate medical intervention clinical trial. The focus will be on tracking the rates of completion and withdrawal among these individuals. It will also try to analyze data from the perspective of different demographic groups to check for recurring trends which might yield insights for the sake of future acne patients.
Acne is a chronic condition that typically requires the use of multiple medications.1 Medication adherence is especially challenging for patients with chronic diseases and often decreases over time, especially for those using topical medications.1 Nonadherence can result in multiple negative effects including treatment failure, increased healthcare costs, and decreased quality of life. Primary nonadherence refers to problems acquiring and starting treatment. Challenges to this form of nonadherence include a lack of knowledge, misunderstanding of usage, poor communication with provider, increased cost, and fear of side effects.2 Secondary nonadherence refers to when the patient does not use the medication as prescribed. Hurdles to secondary nonadherence include delayed results, increased complexity of treatment plan, adverse effects, busy lifestyle, and inconvenience.2
To date measuring the effect of dermocosmetic products on the main identified factors of aging and alteration of the skin barrier is based on invasive and expensive experiments. Electrochemistry enables to measure a specific signal for a substance of interest e.g. Vitamin C using an surface contact with an electrode. Therefore, this study will evaluate the reliability and feasibility of measurements of skin's hydration parameters such as NMF and squalene using electrochemistry. These study will be made on three groups of individuals with different skin types: dry skin i.e. atopic dermatitis patients, oily skin i.e. acne skin and a control group of individual without facial dermatosis. Collects of parameters of interest will be made by using patch using electrochemistry (contact with an electrode and potentiostat to detect an electric signal) . It is a simple method that relies on a sensor / electrode pair that allows a study of the surface molecules of the skin. Application in the measurement of vitamin C in food products has already been validated. On a second hand, a collect by chromatography of the parameters of interest will be carried out in order to compare the new method with the reference method. This procedure has been developed via a procedure including collecting surface parameters using a patch an developping special electrodes and miniaturized detecting signal tool (potentiostat)
This multi-center, outpatient study will extract and evaluate the presence of facial P. acnes bacteria and phage strains using pore strips on up to 400 human subjects.
Importance This will be a proof of concept study - whereby we hypothesize that Repigel may represent a paradigm shift in global acne treatment. Historically, there has been a dearth of clinical evidence in this use of povidone-iodine for inflammatory acne. This is likely due to staining related to iodine use, which is not acceptable to consumers. The trial drug, Povidone Iodine, however, becomes colourless and odourless in a matter of seconds after application on the skin. This represents an ideal product for which we may perform testing to look at its efficacy in the management of acne. A mainstay in the pathogenesis of acne involves the overgrowth and proliferation of skin micro-organisms, primarily proprionibacterium Acnes. Long term antibiotic therapy is usually prescribed for a period of 3 to 6 months or more. Previous studies have revealed this form of antibiotic therapy is ineffective, patients are usually poorly compliant, and also results in the formation of antibiotic resistant micro-organisms,which in turn reduces treatment efficacy. Potential Benefits As such, Povidone Iodine with its antiseptic property represents a promising avenue for the elimination of Proprionibacterium Acnes without the associated problems of long term antibiotic use, and the development of antibiotic-resistance. It is cosmetically acceptable, affordable, and easy to use.
