Filter by:Many patients with eczema (atopic dermatitis) have an inherent defect in their skin barrier as demonstrated by high water loss. In laboratory conditions, studies have shown that pioglitazone restores the skin barrier function in skin from eczema patients. The purpose of this study is to determine if taking pioglitazone improves the skin barrier function in people with eczema.
The purpose of this study is to determine clinical efficacy and safety of KM110329 for Atopic dermatitis.
The study shall explore whether treatment of atopic dermatitis is equally effective with Phoenix medical device as compared to standard therapy (Hydrocortisone cream).
Atopic dermatitis is a common disease which affects about one million people in Finland at some stage of their life. In atopic dermatitis we see a superficial inflammation of the skin and a defect in skin barrier function. The filaggrin protein plays a central role in the skin barrier function and studies indicate that about 30% of patients with atopic dermatitis have a mutation in the filaggrin gene. The aim of the study is to investigate whether a mutation in the filaggrin gene affects the clinical treatment outcome in patients with atopic dermatitis. If a mutation predisposes to a worse response to treatment, this could be examined and those patients with the mutation could be given extra treatment support for their atopic dermatitis. The prevalence of filaggrin mutation in the Finnish non-atopic population is studied in the control group.
Ambrosia is known for its allergenicity in the USA causing hay fever and asthma. Israel has always been considered "clean" of Ambrosia but over the past years growth of Ambrosia plants has been detected in several locations in Israel. In the proposed study, patients referred for routine allergic evaluation will also be skin tested with Ambrosia allergens, in addition to their regular prick skin tests with all other airborne allergens.
A phase 1 single center study in which omalizumab is dosed normally (according to the product insert) in subjects with atopic dermatitis.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of two different corticosteroid ointment application regimens for the treatment of eczema (atopic dermatitis).
This is a randomized controlled study. The control group will consist of adult subjects and the caregivers of pediatric subjects with an established diagnosis of atopic dermatitis (AD), who are visiting a dermatologist for a standard AD office visit. In the control group, only verbal instruction (VI), the standard of care, will be provided. The intervention group will receive a similar VI with an additional component: an eczema education handout, as well as an individualized written Eczema Action Plan (EAP) that will illustrate how to recognize disease flare-ups and subsequent remissions. In addition, the EAP will provide detailed step-wise instructions regarding treatment modifications for the above-mentioned variations in treatment severity. To ensure that all patients ultimately receive the same level of care, the control group will also receive an EAP at the end of their consultation. The goal of this study is to assess subjects' perception in the provider's use of an EAP and its effectiveness in helping patients understand their disease and management plan. In order to evaluate the primary end-points, subjects in both the control and treatment groups will be asked to complete post-consultation surveys. Four post-consultation outcomes will be measured: (1) caregivers' understanding of the disease and treatment, (2) caregivers' comfort level in following the EAP at home, (3) caregivers' anxiety level in managing the AD at home, and (4) caregivers' preference for VI + EAP as compared to VI alone, EAP alone, or neither the EAP nor the VI.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, and systemic exposure of AN2728 Topical Ointment, 2%, in subjects with atopic dermatitis.
The purpose of this study was to assess the safety of Dupilumab administered concomitantly with topical corticosteroids (TCS) in patients with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD).
