Filter by:This is a randomized, double-blind, multiple-site, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study, designed to compare the efficacy and safety of generic Clindamycin 1% gel (Akorn), and the marketed product Clindamycin 1% gel (Greenstone LLC) in the treatment of acne vulgaris.
The main purpose of this study is to assess preliminary efficacy and safety of LYS006 in patients with moderate to severe inflammatory acne and to determine if LYS006 has an adequate clinical profile for further clinical development.
Acne vulgaris is a common chronic inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceous unit which is characterized by the formation of non-inflammatory open and closed comedones and inflammatory papules, pustules, nodules and cysts. It is a multifactorial disease that affects mostly adolescent population. Acne appears very early in puberty during the preteen years, often before menarche in girls. Because many adolescents have acne, it is difficult to predict which individuals are prone to severe cases. The pathogenesis of acne is complex, with strong evidence supporting the involvement of follicular hyperkeratinization, hyperactivity of the sebaceous glands, colonization of Propionibacterium acnes and yeast, and inflammation. Although the importance of androgens in the pathophysiology of acne has been supported by both clinical studies and experimental data, the research evaluating adipokines are very few in patients with acne vulgaris.
In this study the topical use of cream with live probiotic bacteria was evaluated for its efficacy in reducing acne symptoms and its effect on the skin microbiota on patients with acne. Patients with mild to moderate acne used the probiotic cream for 8 weeks and clinical evaluation and sampling was done at start, 4, 8 and 10 weeks. Next-Generation Sequencing was used to analyze the skin microbiota of the patients.
With 24 million results associated with Google's searchon keywords "severe acne", Pr Dreno's team understand better thatthis disease, which affects many French people, is a real concern of Public Health and not a "forced evil" of the adolescent period, which will eventually resolve itself. Acne does not affect the vital prognosis, but its psychosocial impact is major and should not be underestimated. Paradoxically, despite the high prevalence of acne, few quality epidemiological studies have been published. Physicians are often helpless when faced with patients' questions. They often need a lot of explanations, especially on the factors aggravating this dermatosis, which greatly affects their quality of life. This cohort, the first of its kind in France, will determine the predictive factors of therapeutic response, endogenous and environmental factors impacting on the severity of acne assess the quality of life and psychological impact of acne patients, determine the patient's course of care and the associated costs. Pr Dreno's team will also build up a bio collection (bacteriological samples).
Acne vulgaris is a multifactorial disease caused by overgrowth of Propionibacterium acnes (P. acnes), impaction of hair follicles, excessive sebum production and hormonal dysregulation. Recent literature from the Human Microbiome Project has shown there are unique microbial signatures specific to healthy and acne disease states. From this data, the investigators hypothesize that by eliminating resident disease-associated bacterial strains and replacing them with health-associated strains, recurrences/fares of acne may be improved, mitigated, and prevented. Instead of current approaches which focus on eliminating all bacteria from the skin, the investigators aim to deliver healthy bacteria to restore the skin to a healthy state via this replacement therapy. The investigators aim to test this in a Phase Ib single application study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and clinical impact that a single application of NB01, a live strain of P. acnes, has on adult subjects with moderate acne.

The objective of the study is to investigate prevalence of H.Pylori infection among acne vulgaris patients.
This is a single-center, open label pilot study. The study is comprised of 5 study visits; Screening, Baseline, and Weeks 4, 8, and 16. All subjects will receive Onexton at Baseline and be instructed to apply the gel once daily to the face. The investigators will evaluate Investigator Global Assessment of acne (IGA), total lesion count, inflammatory lesion count, non-inflammatory lesion count, Investigator Global Assessment of Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation and distribution of Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation, adverse events and concomitant medications.
