About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Efficacy and Safety Study of PH-10 Aqueous Hydrogel for the Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis

This phase 2 study will assess whether topical PH-10 applied once daily to mild, moderate or severe areas of atopic dermatitis (including atopic eczema) may ameliorate inflammation of the skin when activated by ambient light.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The primary efficacy endpoint is "Treatment Success," a static endpoint defined as a score of 0 to 1 at Day 28 (at the end of the study treatment period) by the Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) scoring system for atopic dermatitis status.

    Measured: 28 days

  2. Adverse experience, including pain and dermatologic/skin toxicity (incidence, severity, frequency, duration and causality).

    Measured: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) score changes at each visit from Day 1 pre-treatment.

    Measured: 8 weeks

  2. Eczema Area Severity Index (EASI) score changes of individual atopic dermatitis signs at each visit from Day 1 pre-treatment.

    Measured: 8 weeks

  3. Pruritus Self-Assessment score changes of atopic dermatitis related itching/scratching at each visit from Day 1 pre-treatment.

    Measured: 8 weeks

  4. Adverse change in clinical laboratory tests (CBC and CMP).

    Measured: 8 weeks

  5. Adverse change in vital signs (BP, pulse, temperature).

    Measured: 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PH-10 in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by Provectus Pharmaceuticals at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary efficacy endpoint is "Treatment Success," a static endpoint defined as a score of 0 to 1 at Day 28 (at the end of the study treatment period) by the Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) scoring system for atopic dermatitis status. (time frame: 28 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Sep 2009.
