Clinical Trial Summary

CT-100 is a platform that provides interactive, software based therapeutic components that may be used as part of a treatment in future software-based prescription digital therapeutics. One class of CT-100 components are Digital Neuro-activation and Modulation (DiNaMo TM) components. DiNaMo components target key neural systems (including but not limited to systems related to sensory-, perceptual-, affective-, pain-, attention-, cognitive control, social- and self- processing) to optimally improve a participant's health.

Description:

CT-100 is a platform that provides interactive, software based therapeutic components that may be used as part of a treatment in future software-based prescription digital therapeutics. One class of CT-100 components are Digital Neuro-activation and Modulation (DiNaMo TM) components. DiNaMo components target key neural systems (including but not limited to systems related to sensory-, perceptual-, affective-, pain-, attention-, cognitive control, social- and self- processing) to optimally improve a participant's health. The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate initial effects of the DiNaMo component on measures of undesired behavior intensity and related outcomes in a variety of conditions, such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis

Intervention

Device:
• CT-100-004-A
Digital Neuro-activation and Modulation (DiNaMo) component uses implicit training to strengthen inhibitory control. This intervention could help improve cognitive capabilities to help participants overcome the urge to scratch in response to an itch.
• CT-100-004-B
The CT-100-D-004-B Processing speed training component uses implicit training targeting processing speed. This intervention could help improve cognitive capabilities to help participants overcome the urge to scratch in response to an itch.
