What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Subjects With Complete Cure at Week 6.

    The first primary efficacy variable was the percentage of subjects in the NAFT-500 Cream, 2% or 2-week placebo groups with complete cure at Week 6.

    The second primary efficacy variable was the percentage of subjects in the Naftin 1% Cream or 4-week placebo groups with complete cure at Week 6.

    Complete cure was defined as negative mycology results from the central laboratory (dermatophyte culture and KOH) and absence of erythema, scaling, and pruritus that were evaluated using a 4 point severity scale.

    Measured: Week 6

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of Subjects With Mycological Cure and Percentage of Subjects With Treatment Effectiveness at Week 6

    Mycological Cure was defined as negative KOH result and negative dermatophyte culture at Week 6. Treatment Effectiveness was defined as negative KOH, negative culture, and Scaling, Erythema, and Pruritus grades of 0 or 1 at Week 6.

    Measured: Week 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing NAFT-500 and Naftin 1% in people with Tinea Pedis and Athlete's Foot, run by Merz North America, Inc. at 17 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 7 inclusion and 17 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 26 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Jan 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Subjects With Complete Cure at Week 6. (time frame: Week 6). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00750139, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 26 Apr 2013.
