  3. Rate of negative culture

    Measured: After 6 applications (7 and 42 days after start of treatment)

  4. Rate of microscopy negative

    Measured: After 6 applications (7 and 42 days after start of treatment)

  5. Rate of absence of itching and burning

    Measured: After 6 applications (7 and 42 days after start of treatment)

  6. Incidence and severity of Adverse Event

    Measured: From visit 2 (day 3) till visit 7 (day 42)

  7. Vital Signs

    Measured: Visit 1 (day 1) and visit 7 (day 42)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Bifonazole spray once daily, Bifonazole spray twice daily and Lamisil Once in people with Tinea Pedis, run by Bayer at 4 sites in Germany.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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 27 Jan 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Germany. 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 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?

Assessment of erythema, scaling, vesiculation maceration, and pruritus based on a categorial scale (0=absent to 3 =severe), assessment of mycological cure based on cultures and microscopy (time frame: After 6 applications (7 and 42 days after start of treatment)). 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 27 Jan 2015.
