Filter by:The objective of this phase 2 study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HL-009 Liposomal Gel in adult patients with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis (AD).
This was a multicenter, randomised, double-blind, two treatment arms, vehicle (cream base) -controlled, parallel-group study in subjects with moderate to severe eczema (defined by investigators global assessment (IGA) score greater than or equal to 3). Subjects were screened within 3 days prior to randomization. At the screen visit, subjects gave informed consent and were then assessed for health status and eligibility for inclusion in the study. At the baseline visit, subject eligibility was assessed for randomization (Day 0). Eligible subjects were randomised to Clobetasone Butyrate 0.05% Cream group or vehicle (cream base) group at the rate of 1:1. During the treatment phase, subjects returned to the sites in day 7 post-baseline visit for assessment of their disease status and eligibility to continue on the study. During the final visit, 14 days after the baseline, subjects returned to the study sites for assessment of their disease status before completing the study. In addition, the safety and tolerability of Clobetasone Butyrate 0.05% cream were also assessed through the whole trial.
The study will assess the safety and efficacy of QGE031 in the treatment of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis patients. In addition, QGE031 levels in the blood will be measured and the effect of QGE031 on markers in the blood and skin will be evaluated. Comparisons of the effect of QGE31 will be made with placebo and also cyclosporine, a treatment already established as being effective in atopic dermatitis.
The primary objective was to assess the clinical efficacy of repeated subcutaneous (SC) doses of Dupilumab in adult participants with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).
This pilot, phase II, 24-week study will recruit a total of 10 patients and will evaluate the efficacy and safety of acitretin in patients with severe chronic hand dermatitis .
Phase 1 study to evaluate the safety of MEDI4212.
Determine the mean time to itch relief from the start of treatment with topic methylprednisolone aceponate.
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate microbial density in eczematous lesions during two weeks of twice daily therapy with the investigational product, DPK-060 1% ointment, compared with placebo in patients with atopic dermatitis. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled part of the study was preceded with an open-label investigation in a small group of patients (n=5) treated with two applications of DPK-060 1% ointment per day for four days to assess safety, local tolerability and systemic absorption of DPK-060. The secondary objectives were to evaluate severity of eczema and pruritus, to assess the tolerability and safety of the treatment and to assess the degree of systemic absorption of DPK-060 in blood on Day 7 and Day 21 in a sub-set of 10 patients.
A new flu vaccine which is injected into the skin instead of into the muscle has recently been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for vaccination of the general population including patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). This new vaccine has been shown to work as well as the vaccine which is injected into muscle when tested in people without atopic dermatitis. The primary endpoint of the study is to estimate the variance of the log fold change from baseline in HAI antibody titers for non-atopic controls and participants with atopic dermatitis without a history of eczema herpeticum (ADEH-), following administration of a single dose of the seasonal 2011-2012 Fluzone® Intradermal vaccine.
The standard treatment for early-stage breast cancer is breast-conserving surgery followed by adjuvant radiation therapy to the whole breast. This approach leads to low recurrence rates with a good cosmesis and provides an effective alternative to mastectomy. However, in most women receiving radiotherapy radiation dermatitis occur to some degree. Radiation dermatitis generally manifests within a few weeks after the start of radiation therapy. Its onset varies depending on the radiation dose intensity and the normal tissue sensitivity of individuals. As the cumulative dose of radiation increases the transient erythema occurring during the first weeks of radiotherapy may evolve into the more persistent erythema and to dry or even moist desquamation that reflects the damage to the basal cell layer and the sweat and sebaceous glands. There is currently no evidence that prophylactic treatments, beyond keeping the irradiated area clean and dry, are effective in reducing the incidence or severity of radiation dermatitis (Bolderston et al. 2006). However, together with other enzymes of the peroxidase pathway, SOD scavenges the superoxide, hydroxyl, and other oxygenated free radicals (Klug et al. 1972; Tainer at al. 1983). In physiological conditions, the production of free radicals (Monte & Sacerdote 1994) and the action of antiradicals' enzymes is balanced. Following tissue injuries, either pathological or caused by agents such as radiation therapy, an excess production of free radicals is observed (Petkau 1986; Lorette & Machet 2001). Furthermore, basal SOD is increased in breast cancer patients before radiation therapy as compared to controls (Seth et al. 2003), and decreases after radiotherapy (Ray at al. 2000). Hence, liposomal rhSOD applied during radiotherapy could be used to prevent the effects of free radicals and thus might protect the patient's skin from radiation-induced skin reactions. TREATMENT PLAN All patients receive APN201 and placebo at the same time. The irradiated region is divided vertically into two symmetric areas (left and right). One area is treated with APN201, the other area is treated with placebo in a double-blind fashion. Study treatment (APN201 and placebo) starts on the day of initiation of radiation therapy and continues until the end of radiation therapy to the whole breast (25 or 28 daily fractions to a total dose of 50.0 Gy or 50.4 Gy, respectively) (see schedule of assessments, section 5.1). Study treatment is stopped if radiation dermatitis of ≥ grade 2 occurs in one or both treated areas for ≥ 3 days AND a difference in the severity of radiation dermatitis of ≥ 1 grade is seen between the two treated areas. From that point in time the patient only receives the treatment that appeared to be beneficial and this treatment is applied to the whole irradiated region until completion of the 25th, respectively 28th, fraction. Treatment stops earlier in case of progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity or intolerability.
