Filter by:Inflammatory skin disorders are usually assessed by disease scoring system such as Scoring AD (SCORAD)/Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI) and Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) for atopic eczema and psoriasis respectively. The current approach to score the severity of these inflammatory skin disorders is through clinical observations and questionnaires. These scores however do not reflect the structural characteristics of the skin such as morphology, vasculature architecture and dermis thickness and are subject to inter and intra-assessor variability. Objective inflammatory diseases indicators through non-invasive imaging techniques have the potential to be an important clinical tool to shed light on its severity in an objective manner. Furthermore, given the abundance of cutaneous vasculature, non-invasive imaging in patients with chronic inflammatory skin conditions allows the investigators to evaluate in detail how co-morbidities of metabolic syndrome, especially type 2 diabetes, further affects the vasculature or the epidermis in the skin. It helps to answer the question of whether a tighter control of the "overlying" skin condition helps in management of the underlying co-morbidities. Currently, there are many skin imaging modalities available to visualize the morphology and vascular architecture non-invasively, but they are hindered by their penetration depth and lack of contrast. Examples include optical coherence tomography (OCT), high-frequency ultrasound, and Doppler based ultrasound. In this study, these shortcomings will be circumvented through the usage of photoacoustic mesoscopic imaging, a non-invasive, high resolution, intrinsic or contrast-enhanced imaging technique, which can provide functional and metabolic information at greater depths, and an optical fibre-based handheld confocal Raman spectroscopy system with inbuilt data processing algorithms and software, which allows for highly effective and accurate analysis of various skin constituents, such as ceramides, filaggrin, and hydration. These technologies will allow the investigators to study inflammatory and skin barrier markers in, as well as correlations between, psoriasis, eczema, diabetes, and obesity. In addition, by studying the skin before and after therapeutic interventions, this study will aid in understanding the mechanisms of action and efficacy of various interventions.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled phase IIb study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, PK, PD and immunogenicity of CM310 in moderate-severe AD subjects. The study consists of 3 periods, a up-to-4-week Screening Period, a 16-week randomized Treatment Period and a 8-week Safety Follow-up Period.
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of ARQ-151 cream applied once a day for 52 weeks by subjects with atopic dermatitis (eczema).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of 3 dose regimen of CC-93538 in adult participants with moderate to severe Atopic Dermatitis (AD).
Atopic dermatitis (AD), also known as eczema, is an inflammatory disease of the skin affecting a large proportion of the pediatric and adult patient population. Chronic itching and eczematous lesions lead to a high burden of disease and associated patient morbidity with higher infection rates, emotional stress and associated psychological disease. The microbiome community contributes to human health through several mechanisms. Current research suggests that derangements in the normal microbiota may lead to inflammatory bowel disease, allergy, and metabolic syndromes. Specific to dermatology, new literature has demonstrated that changes in the microbiome may play a role in the development of atopic dermatitis. With this study, the investigators hope to characterize the baseline atopic dermatitis skin microbiome and monitor the evolution of the participants skin microbiome during and after treatment with anti-inflammatory topical medications, specifically the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved phosphodiesterase inhibitor, crisaborole ointment 2% (Eucrisa).
This study will assess the safety and efficacy of ARQ-151 cream vs vehicle applied once a day for 4 weeks by subjects with atopic dermatitis (eczema).

KT-474 is an oral heterobifunctional small molecule IRAK4 degrader being developed for the treatment of interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R)/toll-like receptor (TLR)-driven immune-inflammatory diseases. This first-in-human (FIH) study will characterize the safety, tolerability and the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) of a single ascending dose and multiple ascending doses of KT-474 in healthy volunteers and patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) or hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). The effects of food on the absorption of KT-474 will also be evaluated in healthy volunteers.
The skin microbiome of atopic dermatitis patients and healthy volunteers will be studies by collecting and analysing skin swabs on different timepoint. Additional, effort will be made to isolate and characterize Lactobacillus spp. and other beneficial micro-organisms on the skin. Second aim of this study is to evaluate a topical probiotic cream in atopic dermatitis treatment. A double-blind placebo-controlled intervention study will be performed in parallel with the skin microbiome analysis. Both clinical effect on the symptoms of atopic dermatitis and effect on the skin microbiome and survival of beneficial bacteria on the skin will be evaluated.
This is a single-centre, prospective, randomized, open-label, controlled trial of 200 infants 42±7 days of age. Subjects will be randomized to one of two open label feeding intervention group: - Intact Cow's Milk Protein Formula Group (CMFG) (n = 100) or - Partially Hydrolysed Whey Formula Group (pHFG) (n = 100).
