Filter by:The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that CD5024 1% cream is more effective than its vehicle when applied once daily, at bed time, during a 12 week period in subjects with Papulopustular Rosacea (PPR) and continues to be safe up to 12 months.
Study objectives: - To compare efficacy and safety of Ivermectin 1% cream versus metronidazole 0.75% cream in subjects with papulopustular rosacea after 16-week topical treatment. - And to compare, for subjects initially successfully treated by 16 weeks treatment, Ivermectin 1 % cream versus metronidazole 0.75% cream during a 36-week extension period by assessing, the time of first relapse, the relapse rate, and the number of days free of treatment
Assessment of pharmacokinetics of Azelaic Acid Foam after repeated skin application and in comparison to Azelaic Acid gel. Assessment of safety after repeated skin application.
Rosacea is a chronic skin disorder with the signs and symptoms of facial flushing, persistent redness, small visible spider-like veins, papules (inflamed red bumps under the skin) and pustules. Rosacea is also a a recurring skin disorder. In addition to causing uncomfortable and embarrassing physical symptoms such as flushing, burning, and itching, rosacea can also contribute to lower self-esteem, which can have a significant psychosocial impact on quality of life. Rosacea flares can be triggered by every day factors such as sun exposure, heat, hot or caffeinated drinks, alcoholic beverages, spices and stress. Many of the currently available treatments for rosacea are only partially effective and some patients do not respond to them, or are unable to tolerate the side effects. This is a single-center, open label trial of Apremilast in ten (10) subjects with moderate to severe inflammatory rosacea who will be treated with Apremilast 20 mg twice per day for 12 weeks. Following the screening period and baseline visit, study subjects will return at weeks 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12. There is a follow up study visit at week 16. Recent research has shown an increase of specific proinflammatory cytokines in the biopsies of inflammatory lesions from rosacea and acne patients. The cytokines then trigger a chain of chemical responses in the body that likely result in the development of the papules an pustules that are seen in rosacea and acne patients. Apremilast is an oral agent that modulates multiple anti-inflammatory pathways and has pharmacodynamic properties with potential therapeutic benefit for treating inflammatory autoimmune disorders. The investigators therefore propose a pilot study to evaluate the potential for Apremilast to improve the signs and symptoms of moderate to severe inflammatory rosacea.
This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of a new formulation of an existing medication for the treatment of papulopustular rosacea. The study will test the active ingredient plus foam against foam alone.
Subjects with moderate papulopustular rosacea will be treated either with azelaic acid 15% gel topically plus an anti-inflammatory dose of doxycyline (40mg) daily or with metronidazole 1% gel topically once daily plus an anti-inflammatory dose of doxycycline (40mg) over at total of twelve weeks to determine the rapidity of improvement, and the length of time to reach 25%, 50% and 75% clearing compared to baseline.
This exploratory study is being performed to determine whether a new form formulation of azelaic acid 15% is effective in the treatment of papulopustular rosecea.
To assess the efficacy and tolerability of azelaic acid 15% gel applied once daily versus twice daily in the treatment of patients with papulopustular rosacea.
