About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Multi-center, Randomized, Double-blind, Vehicle-controlled, Three-arm, Parallel Group Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Topical OPA-15406 Ointment, in Subjects With Mild/Moderate Atopic Dermatitis

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of 2 concentrations of OPA-15406 compared to vehicle in participants with atopic dermatitis (AD).

Read the detailed description

AD is a disease mainly characterized by pruritic eczema, and those with the disease experience repeated exacerbations and remissions. Therapeutic guidelines for the disease, currently being developed in many countries, all recognize AD as chronic eczema that is accompanied by the physiological dysfunction of the skin and in which inflammation is caused by various nonspecific stimuli or specific allergens. OPA 15406 is a type-4 phosphodiesterase (PDE4) inhibitor. PDE4 inhibitors are thought to be useful for allergic inflammatory diseases. This is a Phase 2 dose ranging study to evaluate the efficacy of two concentrations of OPA 15406 ointment compared to vehicle, when administered topically twice daily in participants with mild to moderate AD.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Success in the Overall Investigator's Global Assessment of Disease Severity (IGA) Score at Week 4 [Using Non-responder Imputation or Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF)]

    The IGA evaluation was performed by a certified rater. The IGA score, used to assess the overall disease severity, consists of a 6-point severity scale from clear to very severe disease (0 = clear, 1 = almost clear, 2 = mild disease, 3 = moderate disease, 4 = severe disease, and 5 = very severe disease). The IGA uses clinical characteristics of erythema, infiltration, papulation, oozing, and crusting as guidelines for the overall severity assessment. The IGA assessment was performed for the overall selected treatment area(s): overall percentage body surface area to be treated and additionally for the target lesion. Success was defined as a score of 0 or 1 with at least a 2-grade reduction from Baseline. Participants without IGA score at Week 4 were treated as non-responders. In the sensitivity analysis, missing IGA score at Week 4 was imputed using LOCF method first and the success was defined based on the imputed IGA score.

    Measured: Week 4

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change From Baseline in Overall IGA Score at Week 4 [Using Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) Analysis]

    The IGA evaluation was performed by a certified rater. The IGA allows for an assessment of overall disease severity at a given time point, and it consists of a 6-point severity scale from clear to very severe disease (0 = clear, 1 = almost clear, 2 = mild disease, 3 = moderate disease, 4 = severe disease, and 5 = very severe disease). The IGA uses clinical characteristics of erythema, infiltration, papulation, oozing, and crusting as guidelines for the overall severity assessment. The IGA assessment was performed for the overall selected treatment area(s): overall percentage body surface area to be treated and additionally for the target lesion. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement in overall IGA score.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 4

  2. Change From Baseline in Overall IGA Score at Week 4 [Using Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) Analysis]

    The IGA allows for an assessment of overall disease severity at a given time point, and it consists of a 6-point severity scale from clear to very severe disease (0 = clear, 1 = almost clear, 2 = mild disease, 3 = moderate disease, 4 = severe disease, and 5 = very severe disease). The IGA uses clinical characteristics of erythema, infiltration, papulation, oozing, and crusting as guidelines for the overall severity assessment. Missing overall IGA scores at Week 4 were imputed using LOCF method. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement in overall IGA score.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 4

  3. Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)

    An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug related. An serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any event which resulted in death, was life-threatening, was a persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions, required in-patient hospitalization or prolonged hospitalization, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or was another medically significant event.

    Measured: From signing of informed consent through Week 8

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing OPA-15406 in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Development & Commercialization, Inc. at 30 sites in 3 countries.

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 2 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 23 Nov 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 30 sites in United States, Australia, Poland. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Nov 2021). 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 Participants With Success in the Overall Investigator's Global Assessment of Disease Severity (IGA) Score at Week 4 [Using Non-responder Imputation or Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF)] (time frame: Week 4). 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 23 Nov 2021.
