About this study
The purpose of this study is to determine how clobetasol proprionate foam works against a placebo foam in the treatment of hand dermatitis.
Read the detailed description
Topical corticosteroids have anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive and antiproliferative properties. Clobetasol propionate foam 0.05% (Olux-E), a Class 1 corticosteroid, is formulated in an ethanol free petrolatum base that provides the benefits of a super-potent corticosteroid combined with moisturizing ingredients in the treatment of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses. The current study is designed to show efficacy and safety in the treatment of moderate to severe chronic hand dermatitis.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants With Improvement of at Least 2 Grades in the Investigator's Static Global Assessment (ISGA) (Target Hand) Score From Baseline to Day 15
The investigator rated chronic hand dermatitis of the participants' target hand using the 5-point ISGA: 0=clear, minor residual discoloration, no erythema (redness of skin)/induration (skin hardening)/papulation (eruption of small, rounded solid bumps on skin), no oozing/crusting; 1=almost clear, trace faint pink erythema, no induration/papulation and no oozing/crusting; 2=mild, faint pink erythema, mild induration/papulation; 3=moderate, pink-red erythema, moderate induration/papulation, some oozing/crusting; 4=Severe, bright-red erythema, severe induration/papulation, oozing/crusting.
Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Day 15

On Days 1, 3, 8, and 15, participants assessed the pruritis (itching), stinging (piercing pain), burning, and pain of the target hand. Participants were instructed to assess the level/severity of the indicated symptoms over the previous 24 hours using a scale ranging from 0 (none) to 10 (unbearable). Percent change from baseline was calculated as value at Days 3, 8, and 15 minus the value at Baseline divided by the Baseline value * 100.
Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Days 3, 8, and 15

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 4 study testing clobetasol propionate 0.05% in people with Dermatitis, Chronic, run by Stiefel, a GSK Company at 10 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 5 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 20 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 10 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.
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 21 Dec 2011). 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?
Number of Participants With Improvement of at Least 2 Grades in the Investigator's Static Global Assessment (ISGA) (Target Hand) Score From Baseline to Day 15 (time frame: Baseline (Day 1) and Day 15). 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 NCT01323673, 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 20 Jun 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
