Filter by:The objective of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance and safety of T.R.U.E. Test allergens in pediatric subjects aged 6-17 years old. In total, 11 allergens were evaluated; 7 new allergens on panels 2.2 and 3.2 and 4 previously approved allergens for which changes were made to dose and excipient.
This study hopes to improve the investigators understanding of how the immune system acts in allergic contact dermatitis. In order to reach this goal, normal volunteers, who are suspected of having allergic contact dermatitis, will be patch tested for the fifteen most common allergens. Then, biopsies will be taken of the skin at the sites where the there is a positive reaction to the allergen. Also, small biopsies will be taken from an area that received a patch but no allergen and an area that did not receive a patch to serve as controls. In a second stage of the study, volunteers will receive patches with the allergen to which they demonstrated an allergic response. More biopsies will be taken, over three designated time points. The biopsied skin samples will then be studied in a laboratory.
Nickel contact dermatitis (eczema) is one of the most common allergic conditions affecting the skin. This is a study looking at potentially desensitizing nickel-allergic patients to their allergy using anti-inflammatory ointments applied to the skin (arm). Application of these ointments (ie. modified Vitamin D) has been shown to increase specific immune cells (T regulatory cells), which play a role in preventing immune activation and subsequently inflammation. The investigators propose use of topical anti-inflammatory agents (corticosteroids, modified Vitamin D, or both) may desensitize patients with nickel allergy.
The purpose of the study is to assess the effect of a single dose of NI-0801 on the severity of nickel-induced allergic contact dermatitis.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of apremilast in patients with recalcitrant atopic or contact dermatitis.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect and safety of rHuPH20 or placebo for the prevention and treatment of skin allergic reaction to nickel. The study drug and placebo will be administered by intradermal injection.
A Double-blind, Vehicle-controlled Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Three Weeks of Daily Dermal Application of MRX-6 or steroid on the Treatment of Mild to Moderate Allergic Contact Dermatitis of the Hand and Forearm. Total number of patients: up to 80.
RATIONALE: Gathering information about allergies to metals may help doctors learn whether having an allergy to metal used in dental work increases the risk of developing oral cancer. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying contact allergies to dental metal as a possible risk factor for oral cancer.
A study of subjects with a known nickel allergy comparing Tacrolimus to placebo, both associated with nickel patches to determine the safety and efficacy of treating Chronic Allergic Contact Dermatitis with Tacrolimus Ointment
The current knowledge of the pathophysiology of allergic contact dermatitis is based on the murine model. In this model, CD8+ T cells are effector cells, and CD4+ T cells regulate the response by limiting the expansion of CD8+ T cells. The goal of this study is to characterize the pathophysiology of contact dermatitis, with patients allergic to para-phenylenediamine (PPD). We suppose that the CD8+ T cells are the effectors of the allergic contact dermatitis, although the regulator cells belong to the LT CD4+ population. We will test our hypothesis on blood samples, and cutaneous biopsies of patients allergic to PPD.
