About this study

Official title: Pilot, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group, Dose Range Finding Study, to Evaluate the Tolerability and Safety of FXFM244 Antibiotic Foam and to Monitor Its Clinical Effect in Moderate to Severe Rosacea Patients

Acne rosacea is a chronic acneiform disorder affecting both the skin and the eye. It is a syndrome of undetermined etiology characterized by both vascular and papulopustular components involving the face and occasionally the neck and upper trunk.

This is a pilot phase II study to evaluate the tolerability and safety and to monitor the clinical efficacy of Topical Minocycline Foam FXFM244 in moderate to severe Rosacea patients.

Read the detailed description

A Pilot, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group, Dose Range Finding Study. The study will involve three treatment groups. Eligible patients will be randomized to receive either FXFM244 - 1%, FXFM244 - 4% or Placebo, in a blinded fashion. Patients will be treated twice daily for 12 weeks. Following the screening period and baseline visit, study subjects will return at Weeks 3, 6, 9 and 12. A follow up visit will take place at week 16. At each visit, patients will be evaluated via lesion count, global assessment tolerability and safety.

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

  1. Improvement in signs and symptoms of rosacea

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The severity of the overall rosacea condition will be measured at baseline and at all follow-up visits. The severity will be assessed and graded based on the scales for erythema, telangiectases and number of papulopustular lesions

    Measured: 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Topical Minocycline Foam FXFM244 in people with Rosacea, run by Vyne Therapeutics Inc. at 1 site in Israel.

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 9 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Aug 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Difficulty in recruitment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Improvement in signs and symptoms of rosacea (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 26 Aug 2015.
