Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of JNJ-39758979 in adult Japanese patients with moderate, active atopic dermatitis.
The purpose of this Phase Ib study is to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of LEO 29102 2,5 mg/g cream when treating atopic dermatitis (AD) lesions from 10 up to 100% of the body surface area (BSA) twice daily (BID) for 7 days (Cohorts I, II, III) and from 10% up to 50% of BSA (bid) for 6 weeks (Cohort IV). This trial will be performed in four cohorts. Cohort I, II and III includes patients with a larger BSA that increases from one cohort to the next. After each cohort (Cohort I, II)a blinded evaluation of the safety and tolerability data will assess whether a stepwise increase in the percentage of "to be treated BSA" is justified. Cohort IV will start dosing after finalisation of Cohort II and after submission of data from Cohort I and II to the national authority and IEC for review.
In this controlled crossover study we aim to compare the efficacy of narrow-band UVB (NB-UVB) with bath-PUVA and NB-UVB plus salt water baths in atopic dermatitis.
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic skin disease characterized by a defective skin barrier, inflammation, and increased propensity for skin infections. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is primarily acquired through local production in the skin after ultraviolet light exposure but can also be obtained through natural and supplemental dietary sources. This randomized controlled trial will examine the effects of vitamin D repletion on atopic dermatitis severity in patients with diagnosed deficiency. The investigators hypothesize that pediatric patients with moderate or severe atopic dermatitis and vitamin D deficiency will have improved cutaneous disease after treatment with high dose as compared to standard dose vitamin D.
The purpose of this study is to determine if twice weekly 10 minute dilute bleach baths decreases disease severity in patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis.
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic skin disease with pruritus as one of its main features. Because of the symptomatic nature of their condition, pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis may preferentially seek care in the subspecialty dermatology clinic while falling behind in visits to their primary care provider. This cross-sectional study in patients attending the Dermatology Clinic at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin will screen for common conditions associated with atopic dermatitis and subsequently treat or refer patients for appropriate care. The investigators hypothesize that Milwaukee County pediatric patients with atopic dermatitis will have a high prevalence of asthma needing treatment, missed immunizations requiring catch-up, and vitamin D deficiency necessitating replacement therapy.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the comparative efficacy, safety and efficiency of ciclosporin microemulsion and alitretinoin in adults with severe atopic hand dermatitis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of additional nursing instruction for the caregivers of newly diagnosed pediatric atopic dermatitis patients at the University of Missouri Dermatology clinic.
Background: - Severe atopic dermatitis, also known as eczema, is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects both children and adults and causes severe itching and skin redness. Current treatments of atopic dermatitis include topical creams and lotions, light therapy, and medications. However, the difficulty with long-term treatment for the chronic and severe nature of the disease requires more effective and better-tolerated therapeutic options. - Anakinra is a drug that blocks a substance called interleukin-1 (IL-1), which may be important in causing the inflammation in atopic dermatitis. Researchers are interested in determining whether anakinra can be used to help treat atopic dermatitis. Anakinra has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat rheumatoid arthritis in adults and children, but it has not been approved for use in adults or children with atopic dermatitis and is considered an experimental treatment in this study. In this study Anakinra will be administered as an injection under the skin every day for 3 months Objectives: - To assess the safety and effectiveness of using anakinra to treat severe atopic dermatitis in children. Eligibility: - Children between 10 and 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with severe atopic dermatitis that has not responded to standard treatment. Design: - Initial Screening: Participants will have an initial screening visit with a complete physical examination and medical history, blood and urine tests, photographs of the skin ,skin biopsy, and other tests as required. - Run-in Period: At the screening visit, participants will receive a diary card and will be asked to track their atopic dermatitis symptoms on standard treatment for 2 months. - Start of Treatment: At the end of the 2 month Run-in period participants will return for an inpatient visit (2 days) to receive the initial dose of anakinra and will be watched for any side effects. During the inpatient visit, participants will have additional examinations and blood and urine tests, and will be instructed on how to administer the anakinra injections at home. Treatment Period: - Participants will return once a week for the first 2 weeks of treatment, at the end of the first month, and then once a month for the following 2 months, for a physical exam and blood tests. Participants will be asked to record symptoms related to their atopic dermatitis, anakinra administration and any side effects related to the anakinra on the diary card. The diary cards will be reviewed and collected at each visit.- End of Treatment Period: At the end of 3 months of treatment with anakinra, participants will again be asked to record symptoms related to their atopic dermatitis on the diary card. Participants will be seen once a month for 3 months for a physical exam, blood tests and review of the diary card. . The final study visit will take place at the end of the 3rd month and will include a physical exam, blood tests, photographs and skin biopsy.
This study will look at how safe and effective, a novel agent, CT 327 cream is in treating patients with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis (AD). Patients will be treated twice daily for 14 days on specific lesions of AD and safety and symptoms of AD will be assessed throughout the treatment period.
