About this study

Given that LEO 80185 gel takes effect in the upper layer of the skin, it is important to compare and examine the amount of the drug in the upper layer of the skin with that of Dovobet® Ointment. Therefore, a dermatopharmacokinetic study will be conducted in healty adult male volunteers to evaluate pharmacokinetics of LEO 80185 gel and Dovobet® Ointment in the stratum corneum. In this trial, a single application of LEO 80185 gel and Dovobet® ointment will be applied to multiple test sites on the back of healthy Japanese male adults and the trial is designed to compare the amount of each of the active ingredients at steady state or close-to-steady state between LEO 80185 gel and Dovobet® Ointment. The amount of calcipotriol and betamethasone dipropionate in the stratum corneum will be assessed by use of tape stripping.

Read the detailed description

The study consists of two phases:

The pilot: The first part, known as the pilot study, will include 8 subjects and will evaluate pharmacokinetic profile of LEO 80185 gel and Dovobet® Ointment by measuring the amount of each of the active ingredients in the stratum corneum.

Pivotal: The second part, known as the pivotal study, is designed to compare the amount of each of the active ingredients at steady state or close-to-steady state between LEO 80185 gel and Dovobet® Ointment. The number of subjects in the pivotal study and the number of application sites for study medications will be based on the results of the pilot study.

The number of subjects included in the trial and design of trial is in line with previous type of DPK trials in Japan and the Japanese guideline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing LEO 80185 gel and Dovobet(r) Ointment in people with Psoriasis Vulgaris, run by LEO Pharma at 1 site in Japan.

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 4 inclusion and 24 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 24 Feb 2025. 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 Japan. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The amount of calcipotriol in the stratum corneum (time frame: 24 hours). 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 24 Feb 2025.
