Filter by:The prevalence of common mental disorders is high in patients with chronic inflammatory physical diseases(e.g., autoimmune or infectious diseases). The traditional explanatory causation model in which physical symptoms and related disability drive mental health problems is now called into question, and evidence has accumulated supporting more complex interactions whereby psychiatric disorders can both result from and contribute to the progression of physical diseases. In the present project, the investigators will focus on comorbidity of depression and anxiety symptoms or syndromes with chronic inflammatory skin diseases (psoriasis, hidradenitis suppurativa and atopic dermatitis) or chronic infectious diseases (chronic HBV and HIV infection). The study is aimed to clarify the mechanisms underlying the high frequency of those comorbidities. It will overcome the main limitations of previous investigations and use innovative statistical tools to model complex interrelationships and causal links among the assessed variables. The identification of key variables driving the causal chain of determinants of poor global health and quality of life may impact treatment outcome and models of care.
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether the study drug, EDP1815, is safe and effective in the treatment of atopic dermatitis compared with placebo. The study will look at different doses of the study drug, and whether there are differences when the drug is given once daily or twice daily.
This is an up to 22-week clinical study in adult participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD). The purpose of the study is to test a new tablet (LEO 152020) to see if it improves AD and what the side effects are when compared with a placebo tablet with no medical ingredient. During the study, there will be a 16-week treatment period during which the participants will be asked to take the tablets. The participants will regularly visit the clinic for tests and the study doctor will evaluate their AD. The participants will also be asked to answer questions about their AD symptoms, itch, sleep, and quality of life.
This randomized, double-blind, single center, placebo-controlled, phase 1 single ascending dose (SAD)/multiple ascending dose (MAD) study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, PK, activity, immunogenicity, and PD of BSI-045B. Approximately 68 subjects will be enrolled. Subjects in this study include 56 healthy volunteers (HVs) and 12 patients with AD. This study is divided into 3 parts: 1. Part A: Evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, immunogenicity, and PD of single ascending doses of BSI-045B administered as a subcutaneous (SC) injection of 120, 240, 480, and 720 mg to HVs 2. Part B: Evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, activity (as measured by the Eczema Area and Severity Index [EASI] score), immunogenicity, and PD of a single dose of BSI-045B administered as a SC injection of 480 mg to patients with AD 3. Part C: Evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, immunogenicity, and PD of multiple ascending doses of BSI-045B administered as five (5) SC injections of 240, 480, and 600 mg every 7 days (Q7D) to HVs
The skin microbiome plays a role in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis. However, it is unclear whether the range of microbiota on the skin is the cause or consequence of atopic skin inflammation. The influence of new systemic therapies for the treatment of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (such as biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors) on the skin microbiome is largely unknown. The main aim of this scientific exploratory study is to investigate whether and how the skin microbiome changes in patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis during systemic therapy. This not only allows new hypotheses to be generated on the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis, but also new objective scales for the severity of atopic dermatitis can be developed.
This trial will investigate the pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, safety, and tolerability of LEO 138559 in healthy Japanese subjects. The trial consists of a screening period of up to 4 weeks, a single treatment with either LEO 138559 or placebo, and 8 follow-up visits to Day 85. A total of 24 healthy subjects will be enrolled in 3 dose groups (n=8 per dose group) and randomized to either LEO 138559 or placebo in a ratio of 6:2.
Currently, patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis are treated with dupilumab if unresponsive to topical treatment. However, not all patients who suffer from atopic dermatitis respond similarly to this treatment. Pattern recognition of immune cells (PRI) is an efficient method to screen patients to allow a more personalized therapy. The main aim of this scientific explorative study is to unravel the changes in peripheral blood immune cell compositions in patients with atopic eczema undergoing dupilumab treatment. This allows the identification of phenotypes of treatment responders and non-responders and possible approaches of treatment modifications for non-responders.
The study series consists of three studies with the aim to assess the incidence, prevalence, risk factors, comorbidities and management of patients with alopecia areata in Czech Republic based on the patients and registry of a dermatology clinic of a metropolitan hospital.
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the most common chronic inflammatory skin disorder, with a lifetime prevalence of 15-25% in children and 1-3% in adults worldwide. AD is a heterogeneous disease induced by multiple factors, including genetic mutation and environmental risk factors. The main inflammatory mechanism that contributed to AD is the immune response mediated by T helper 2 (Th2) cells. The clinical features of AD, such as recurrent eczematous lesions, IgE-mediated intense itch, and the disruption of skin barrier induced by abnormal epidermal cell differentiation and protein structures, etc., can be attributed to the secretion of Th2 cell-related cytokines. AD is likely to be a lifelong illness with repeated onsets, causing not only physiological discomfort but also psychological distress; hence the quality of life of AD patients is inevitably affected. Lactic acid is a natural moisturizing factor, which exists in healthy skin. It can efficiently prevent water loss from the skin and alleviate allergic reactions caused by dry skin. The moisturized function of lactic acid has made it became a commonly used additive in a wide variety of skincare products, such as lotion, cream, butter and spray. This product is rich in natural lactic acid generated by the fermentation of probiotics, and therefore can relieve skin itching caused by skin dryness, and resume the water-holding capability of the skin by removing abnormally proliferative stratum corneum as well as inducing collagen production. Importantly, this product is a steroid-free product with safety and without any induced adverse effects in use. This product is also can be a promising option other than steroids to be applied for the mitigation of recurrent symptoms in atopic dermatitis by resuming the water-retention ability of skin and rebuilding skin barrier function.
Hypothesis/Objective : Patient-centered health care and shared decision making are key components of increasing importance which are recommended by the French Haute Autorite de Sante (HAS) and World Health Organization (WHO). In the context of dermatology and atopic dermatitis, European guidelines has promoted an active involvement from both patients and caregivers in therapeutic decisions at all stages to achieve therapeutic success and the Task Force on Atopic Dermatitis (ETFAD) has promoted the setting of treatment goals in a shared decision with the patient. The main objective of this study is to develop and cross culturally validate a tool dedicated to shared-decision in atopic dermatitis that can be used during routine dermatological consultations. The second objective is to better characterize patients seen in this context and to evaluate patients' satisfaction when empowered by shared decision. Method : We aim to develop a SDMt in AD following the recommendations of the International Patient Decision Aid Standards (IPDAS) collaboration. Development will use a multistep approach: 1) identification of priority domains for patients; 2) Selection of domains to be included in the SDMt for AD; and 3) Creation and testing of the SDMt. Participants will be consecutive adult (>18 years old) patients attending consultation for a AD in medical centres in France (Toulouse, Nantes and Créteil). All participants will provide written consent to participate. The study will be submitted for approbation to the local ethics committees of the University Hospital Centres of Paris and will be conducted according to the Declaration of Helsinki. Step 1: Identification of priority domains for patients Step 2: Selection of domains to be included in the SDMt for AD Step 3: Creation and testing of the SDMt
