Filter by:The aim of this trial is to assess the efficacy of 0416 Ointment in the Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis. Treatment medication will be administered as follows: Apply a thin layer of ointment to affected skin areas twice daily and rub in gently and completely. Study medication will be applied twice a day, approximately 12 hours apart, for approximately 2 weeks.
The purpose of this research study is to better understand how fluocinonide cream 0.1% (Vanos®) works when people use it to treat atopic dermatitis for just a few days.
There is not enough evidence to support the use of probiotics for prevention or treatment of AD in children in clinical practice. The purpose of this study is to determine whether probiotics is effective in the treatment of atopic dermatitis with cow milk allergy.
This is a proof of concept and dose finding Phase II trial comparing 5 dose strengths with vehicle and an active comparator (Elidel cream 10 mg/g) in a 4 week, twice daily treatment regimen in mild to moderate atopic dermatitis patients.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of DNK333 in patients with atopic dermatitis suffering from pruritus, who require systemic treatment of the disease.
Clinical single-blind randomized comparison with the overall objective of evaluating the clinical efficacy of the products Nutracort lotion and Nutracort cream in the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis on the face. Will be held clinical and perceived efficacy assessment and instrumental measurements. Each product will be applied at half face for 7 consecutive days and all applications will be monitored in the research site. 60 volunteers will be recruited. Evaluations will be held at the following times: T0 - before the initial application of the product; T1 - 24 hours after starting treatment, T2 - 48 hours after starting treatment, T3 - 72 hours after initiation of treatment, T4 - 96 hours after the start treatment, T7 - 7 days after initiation of treatment.
The aim of the study is to determine the efficacy and safety of topical application of LAS41003 in comparison to LAS189962 and LAS189961 in the treatment of superinfected eczema.
The investigators' primary objective is to identify common and rare mutations in the filaggrin gene in African American patients with a diagnosis of atopic dermatitis and ichthyosis vulgaris. Atopic dermatitis, or eczema, is a common, chronic, relapsing and remitting problem in many children and affects 10-20% of the pediatric population. Itch is a predominant feature of this disease and is quite disruptive to daily activities of life. In addition to itch, it is characterized by markedly dry skin, small red bumps that may have fluid. Ichthyosis vulgaris is characterized by extremely dry, scaly skin with a fine white scale and increased amounts of lines noted on the palms. Filaggrin is a protein that is essential for the skin to function properly as a barrier and found to be mutated in some European patients with ichthyosis vulgaris and atopic dermatitis. This association has not been looked at in the African American population. Genomic DNA (gDNA) will be purified from buccal swabs using commercially available kits and analyzed.
Objectives and perspective: 1. To estimate the prevalence of hand eczema in a cohort of health care workers and assess exposures in the hospital environment that can lead to hand eczema . To investigate the knowledge of skin protection among health care workers. 2. To classify subtypes of hand eczema, assess severity of hand eczema and quality of life in health care workers with hand eczema 3. To evaluate the effect of a combination of classification of hand eczema and individual work-related counseling in skin protective behavior. The overall perspective of the trial is to develop new strategies for prevention of occupational hand eczema in health care workers. Hypotheses: - Irritant contact dermatitis is more common than allergic contact dermatitis. - The combination of precise classification (subtyping of HE) and individual counseling will have a positive impact on the prognosis of hand eczema. - The positive impact on the prognosis of hand eczema will have a positive impact on quality of life (QoL). - The knowledge of protective behavior will increase. - Education in a skin care program will have a positive impact on skin protective behavior.
Topical corticosteroids are largely used in dermatology. The major problem related to their use is that the same mechanisms underlying their therapeutic effects (antiinflammatory and antiproliferative) may lead to adverse events. Conditions sensitive to corticosteroids require formulations with mild to moderate potency while high-potency corticosteroids era required in less responsive conditions. The aim of the present study is to compare the safety and efficacy of prednisolone acetate 0.5% cream (mild-potency non-fluoridated corticosteroid) versus betamethasone valerate 0.1% cream (high-potency fluoridated corticosteroid) in the treatment of mild to moderate cortisosensitive dermatosis (atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis and psoriasis). The study hypothesis is that 0.5% prednisolone cream will be as effective as 0.1% betamethasone cream and will be an alternative option to treat corticosensitive dermatosis in body areas where the use of fluoridated corticosteroids is contraindicated, such as the face.
