Clinical Trial Summary

The ETSKABI study is a prospective, open-label, multicenter, initially single-armed and in case of treatment failure subsequently three-armed randomized clinical trial. Within the initial treatment phase, the to-date clinical efficacy of the standard therapy regimen according to the current German "S1-guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of scabies" is to be examined. The subsequent second phase focusses on three differently escalated treatment regimens in order to evaluate their potential to cure those patients still suffering from Scabies after standard therapy. In total, 183 patients with Scabies who meet all inclusion criteria and do not meet none of the exclusion criteria are to be enrolled and topically treated with Permethrin 5 % cream (up to two administrations, i.e. repeated one-time on day 14 in case of persisting Scabies). In case of treatment failure by the end of phase one, adult patients will be randomized to either receive an (i) escalated therapy with Permethrin 5 % cream (repeated topical administration on two consecutive days), (ii) an add-on-combination consisting of escalated therapy with Permethrin 5 % cream and Ivermectin p.o. or (iii) an escalated therapy with Permethrin 10 % cream (up to two administrations, i.e. repeated one-time on day 14 in case of persisting Scabies). The primary objective of the ETSKABI study is the clinical efficacy of the standard therapy by the end of phase one (standard therapy according to the S1-guideline). Beside this, clinical efficacy by the end of phase two (escalation phase) will be evaluated as well as adverse events in order to investigate over-all clinical safety.
