Clinical Trial Summary

To evaluate the effect on quality of life of consumers with self-reported onychomycosis during the first 4 weeks of treatment in relation to the appearance of the infected toenail.


Description:

The appearance of the infected toe nail in those suffering from the disease may have a greater impact on quality of life than the severity of the disease. It is believed that a visual improvement in the appearance of the infected toenail at an earlier stage could have a positive impact on quality of life and encourage compliance with treatment. The aim of this consumer study is to evaluate the quality of life of consumers with onychomycosis and investigate its relation to the appearance of the infected toenail within the initial 4 weeks of treatment with Scholl Fungal Nail following its purchase from an eCommerce platform.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Quality of Life Improvement Change in mean total score of the OnyCOE-tâ„¢ from baseline to end of inital treatment period. The domains are transformed into 0-100 scale where higher scores indicate better functioning. Changes from baseline of the mean total score will be evaluated with repeated measures t-tests.
The questionnaire contains 7 domains:
7-item Toenail Symptoms, containing Symptom Frequency (5 categories: 1 = never, 5 = very often) and Symptom Bothersomeness (5 categories: 1 = not at all bothered, 5 = extremely bothered) 8-item Appearance Problems (4 categories: 1 = very much a problem, 4 = not a problem) 7-item Physical Activities Problems (4 categories: 1 = very much a problem, 4 = not a problem)
1-item Overall Problem (4 categories; 1 = very much a problem, 4 = not a problem) 7-item Stigma (5 categories: 0 = does not describe me at all, 4 = describes me very well) 3-item Treatment Satisfaction scale (5 categories: 1 = very satisfied, 5 very dissatisfied)
28 days
Secondary Participant perception of the improvement in healthy appearance of their infected toenail. The participants will be asked to score the statement "My toenail looks healthy" (prior to product use) and "My toenail looks healthier" (at various time points following product application) using the following categories, strongly agree, agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, Strongly disagree. A successful outcome of this measure would be 70% Top 2 Boxes (T2B) (Strongly Agree or Agree) improvement in the healthier appearance of the target toenail at any post baseline assessment compare to Day 1 (prior to initial product application) Any timepoint up to day 28
Secondary Participant perception of improvement in brightness of their infected toenail. The participants will be asked to score the statement "My toenail looks bright" (prior to product use) and "My toenail looks brighter" (at various time points following product application) using the following categories, strongly agree, agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, Strongly disagree. A successful outcome of this measure would be 70% T2B (Strongly Agree or Agree) improvement in the brighter appearance of the target toenail as determined by participant perceived questions at any post baseline assessment compare to Day 1 (prior to initial product application) Any timepoint up to day 28
Secondary Participant perception of the improvement in colour of their infected toenail. The participants will be asked to score the statement "My toenail is its natural colour" (prior to product use) and "My toenail is returning to its natural colour" (at various time points following product application) using the following categories, strongly agree, agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, Strongly disagree. A successful outcome of this measure would be 70% T2B (Strongly Agree or Agree) improvement in the colour of the target toenail as determined by participant perceived questions at any post baseline assessment compare to Day 1 (prior to initial product application) Any timepoint up to day 28
Secondary Participant perception of the improvement in smoothness of their infected toenail. The participants will be asked to score the statement "My toenail looks smooth" (prior to product use) and "My toenail looks smoother" (at various time points following product application) using the following categories, strongly agree, agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, Strongly disagree. A successful outcome of this measure would be 70% T2B (Strongly Agree or Agree) improvement in the smoothness of the target toenail as determined by participant perceived questions at any post baseline assessment compare to Day 1 (prior to initial product application) Any timepoint up to day 28
Secondary Participant perception of improvement of their feelings of embarrassment associated with their infected toenail. The participants will be asked to score the statement "I am feeling embarrassed by the appearance of my toenail" (prior to product use and at various time points following product application) using the following categories, strongly agree, agree, neither agree nor disagree, disagree, Strongly disagree. A successful outcome of this measure would be 70% of responses show improvement from baseline and are in the T2B (Strongly Disagree or Disagree) in the feelings of embarrassment relating to the appearance of the target toenail as determined by participant perceived questions at any post baseline assessment compared to Day 1 (prior to initial product application) Any timepoint up to day 28
Secondary Individual OnyCOE-t(TM) domain improvement Improvement in the mean scores on the individual OnyCOE-t(TM) domains (as detailed in outcome 1 above).
The data will be summarised with means, standard deviations, range and 95% confidence intervals, changes from baseline of the mean individual domain score will be evaluated using repeated measures t-tests.
