Filter by:This is a multi-center, evaluator-blinded, randomized, comparative study designed to assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of daptomycin in pediatric subjects ages 1 to 17 years, inclusive, with complicated skin and skin structure infections (cSSSI) caused by Gram-positive pathogens.
DPN is a disorder among darkly pigmented patients, manifested by small, benign, variants of seborrheic keratoses, predominantly on the face. The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of a 585 nm PDL for the treatment of Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra, and compare it to therapy with curettage (scraping the lesions off) and electrodesiccation (burning the lesions off).
A clinical and histological randomized controlled phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral isotretinoin for treating photoaging was performed with 32 menopausal or sterilized women aged 40-55y. The subjects were included in two randomly selected groups: A- 21 women received 20mg oral isotretinoin 3x week, moisturizer, sunscreen SPF 60 during three months; B- 11 women received only same moisturizer/sunscreen.
The purpose of this study is to determine if antibiotics are required in the management of skin abscess following incision and drainage.
This is a parallel-group, randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, Phase 4 trial comparing three creams in the treatment of impetiginous eczema: - Arm A: QUADRIDERME® cream (betamethasone diproprionate, clotrimazole, and gentamicin sulfate) - Arm B: Combination of betamethasone diproprionate cream and gentamicin sulfate cream - Arm C: Betamethasone diproprionate cream At 7 sites, in Portugal, a total of 207 subjects will be randomized using a 1:1:1 randomization ratio to receive one of the three possible treatments for a maximum period of 28 days or until 5 days after total remission of the signs and symptoms, but never more than 28 days. Assessments will be made of level of improvement of the target area in each treatment group, number of days for total remission, and safety profile. Note: This study was terminated early due to lack of recruitment (only 3 of the 207 planned participants were enrolled). Statistical analyses were not performed. Further, 7 sites were planned, but only 4 sites were approved out of which 3 sites were initiated.
The purpouse of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of chondroitin sulphate conventional treatment in patients with both knee osteoarthritis and plaque psoriasis.
The University of North Carolina Department of Dermatology is conducting a clinical trial to evaluate a drug called cantharidin in the treatment of molluscum contagiosum. Molluscum is a common dermatologic disorder caused by a poxvirus. Molluscum typically presents with many flesh-colored bumps on the skin. It goes away on its own, though can last several months to several years. Cantharidin is a topical medicine which is applied at the clinic visit. It is well tolerated by the majority of children.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety and tolerability of RX-1741, an oxazolidinone, versus linezolid, another oxazolidinone, in the treatment of uncomplicated skin and skin structure infections
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a new instrument that shines light and takes digital pictures of skin. The goal is to develop a technique that may enable fast and accurate detection of skin disorders and cancers for future clinical diagnosis and surgical use.
The purpose of this study is to image skin and skin lesions with a new imaging technology called "multiwavelength and coherence confocal reflectance microscopy". This technology uses low intensity laser to image below the surface of the skin. This technology may provide a new way of looking at skin and skin lesions. The goal of this study is to evaluate the images of your skin taken by this microscope. The techniques being evaluated in this study use multi wavelength and coherence confocal reflectance microscopy invivo. The term "in vivo" means in/on a living subject. In this study you will be the living subject and the multi wave length and coherence confocal microscope will be placed on your skin to look at your skin lesions and your normal skin. The confocal microscope uses a weak laser light and a sophisticated lens to image the individual cells that make up the skin. Your lesion will be photographed with high resolution photography. An area near your skin lesion that is clinically normal will also be imaged in the same manner.
