Filter by:This study will be a multicenter, randomized, vehicle controlled, parallel, group, double blind study. Eligible subjects with a clinical diagnosis of impetigo will be randomized to one of four treatment groups: 1.5% CD07223 Topical Gel applied BID; 1.5% CD07223 Topical Gel applied TID; Vehicle Topical Gel applied BID;Vehicle Topical Gel applied TID. All treatments will be administered for 7 days. Disease activity for the Target Lesion will be evaluated using the Skin Infection Rating Scale (SIRS) Score.
This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of topical p-menthane-3,8-diol (PMD)-rich Corymbia Citriodora oil (Citriodiol®) in children with impetigo. Citriodiol® is already known to be effective as an insect repellent and is safe in its topical application. The investigators have also found in our laboratory that it is bactericidal against Staphylococcus aureus, the bacteria responsible for causing impetigo. Parents are always searching for a natural alternative to antibiotics (the current gold standard treatment for impetigo), and the investigators believe Citriodiol® could provide this possible alternative.
This is multicenter, randomised, placebo controlled, parallel, blinded (double-blind for ozenoxacin versus placebo comparison and investigator blinded for retapamulin versus placebo comparison), superiority clinical study comparing ozenoxacin cream versus placebo and retapamulin ointment vs placebo, in patients with a clinical diagnosis of non-bullous or bullous impetigo.
This is a randomized, double-blind study comparing 0.1% NVC-422, 0.5% NVC-422 and 1.5% NVC-422 topical gel in children with impetigo.
Impetigo is a common, highly infectious skin disease caused by bacterial infection and characterized by crusting skin lesions. It is most common in children, particularly children in unhealthy living conditions. In adults, it may follow other skin disorders. Impetigo is caused primarily by the bacteria Streptococcus pyogenes and/or Staphylococcus aureus, which can also be isolated from impetigo lesions. This is a pilot phase II study to evaluate the tolerability and safety and to monitor the clinical efficacy of Topical Minocycline Foam FXFM244 in impetigo patients.
Retapamulin, a topical pleuromutilin antibiotic, is the first in a new class of topical antibiotics approved for human use. In the European Union (EU), retapamulin is approved for the treatment of impetigo and secondarily-infected traumatic lesions in persons nine or more months of age. This study is designed to examine retapamulin use in the pediatric population less than nine months of age. We will conduct a five-year assessment of prescriptions for retapamulin using the General Practice Research Database. For each year of reporting, the observed frequencies of prescriptions of retapamulin, with or without same-day co-prescriptions of topical mupirocin or fusidic acid, will be identified. The five-year reporting period will include five years of distinct, non-overlapping, non-cumulative prescription use of first exposure to retapamulin, with or without same-day co-prescription of topical mupirocin or fusidic acid.
The purpose of this study is to document the clinical and bacteriological efficacy of retapamulin in the treatment of subjects with bacterial infections, including impetigo, folliculitis, and minor soft tissue infections including secondarily infected eczema presumed to be caused by methicillin resistant Staph aureus. Male and female patients ages 9 months to 98 years will be recruited from a university based dermatology clinic. Upon enrollment, wound cultures will be collected, and then subjects will apply topical retapamulin twice daily for five days. The primary endpoint will be resolution of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection based on clinical presentation and physical exam, as well as bacteriological efficacy based on culture results. It is anticipated that approximately 75 patients will be enrolled, with expectation that approximately 50 of these patients will have MRSA infections.
To investigate the clinical and bacteriological efficacy of Fucidin® cream in the treatment of impetigo in paediatric patients. To assess the validity of in vitro susceptibility-testing of S. aureus to fusidic acid as a prediction of clinical and bacteriological outcome in impetigo patients treated with Fucidin® cream. To investigate the genetic relationship between S. aureus-strains isolated from impetigo patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a coordinated regional approach to healthy skin programs in six remote Aboriginal communities can demonstrate, not only a reduction in the burden of scabies and streptococcal skin sores, but also broad health benefits, including primary prevention of some chronic diseases that occur at particularly high rates in Australian Aboriginal communities. The primary objectives of the Program are: - Demonstrate a reduction in scabies and skin sores on a regional basis - Demonstrate the broader public health effects of Healthy Skin Programs, particularly those relating to chronic diseases such as rheumatic fever and renal diseases - Build on the existing Indigenous capacity by assisting in the development of new knowledge and skills to improve the health and well being of Indigenous communities - Establish the feasibility of incorporating Healthy Skin Programs into existing health service delivery
The purpose of this study is to provide further evidence of the clinical and bacteriological efficacy of retapamulin in the treatment of subjects with SITL or impetigo due to MRSA. Subjects aged 2 months and older will be treated with either topical retapamulin for 5 days or oral linezolid for 10 days. The primary endpoint is the clinical response at follow-up (7-9 days after the end of therapy) in subjects who have a MRSA infection at baseline. The primary population is the per-protocol MRSA population. It is anticipated that approximately 500 subjects may be enrolled in order to obtain approximately 105 subjects who have a baseline MRSA infection.
