About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Vehicle Controlled Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Topical DRM02 in Subjects With Rosacea

The purpose of this study is to determine whether DRM02 is safe and effective in the treatment of rosacea when applied twice daily for 6 weeks.

Read the detailed description

This is a double-blind, randomized, vehicle controlled, study enrolling 30 subjects with rosacea and designed to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of DRM02.

Safety will be assessed during the study, through adverse events, local skin responses, urinalysis, serum chemistry and hematology laboratory testing, physical examination and vital signs.

Preliminary efficacy will be assessed through inflammatory lesion counts, the Investigator's Global Evaluation (IGE) and the Rosacea Signs and Symptoms (RSS) scale.

    Measured: Week 6

  3. Percent change in inflammatory lesions

    Measured: Week 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing DRM02 in people with Rosacea, run by Dermira, Inc. at 3 sites in Canada.

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 16 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 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Canada. 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?

Change in inflammatory lesion count (time frame: Week 6). 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 20 Jul 2021.
