About this study

Official title: An Open Label Exploratory Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Ingenol Mebutate 0.05% Gel for the Treatment of Verruca Vulgaris.

The purpose of this study is to determine if ingenol mebutate 0.05% gel is safe and effective in treating common warts on the hands.

Read the detailed description

This is an open label exploratory study evaluating the efficacy and safety of ingenol mebutate 0.05% gel for the treatment of verruca vulgaris. The study will be conducted at one site with one investigator, all subjects will receive active drug. Prior to the application of the investigational product (IP) on Day 1, the individual warts will be pared down with a 15 blade up to obtain debridement of intact skin to maximize exposure and allow for effective penetration of therapy into the lesion.

Subjects can be screened for the study up to 45 days before Visit 1. During screening, the study requirements will be reviewed, written informed consent obtained, and eligibility confirmed. If applicable, qualified subjects can washout from prohibited medications or treatments prior to Visit 1 once they have been consented. These procedures may be combined with Visit 1.

There will be one treatment arm, all subjects receive active ingenol mebutate 0.05% gel once daily for two consecutive days to lesions. Each subject will be screened for inclusion. The treatment will be applied to the entire wart lesion(s) and 0.5 cm margin around the lesion(s). All treatments will be applied in the clinic. A minimum of two (2) and a maximum of five (5) warts will be treated. In addition, one of the two warts will be identified for treatment with occlusion with a bandage each day for 24 hours after each application.

The subjects will be evaluated at Day 1 and Day 2 when the consecutive applications of investigational product will be applied, then at Day 8, 29 and 57 to evaluate anticipated efficacy outcomes (lesion size, clearance, etc.) as well as assess for adverse events/SAEs. The wart that is identified for occlusion will be treated with investigational product and occluded for 24 hours after each application of IP. Subjects will be instructed to avoid excessive exposures to water or other potential contactants or irritants after application of the IP for the following 48 hours to avoid transfer of the IP.

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy assessed by verruca vulgaris lesion counts (total number of lesions present)

    Total number of warts in the treatment area will be counted and assessed for clearance

    Measured: Day 1 through Day 57

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Safety assessed by number and severity of adverse events reported

    All adverse events that occur during the study (from the time of informed consent) will be recorded.

    Measured: Day 1 through Day 57

  2. Safety assessed by application site reactions on a 5 point scale (0/clear - 4/severe)

    Application site reactions defined as of erythema, flaking/scaling, crusting, swelling, erosion/ulceration and vesiculation/pustulation.

    Measured: Day 1 through Day 57

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ingenol mebutate 0.05% gel in people with Verruca Vulgaris and Common Warts, run by Neal D. Bhatia, MD at 1 site 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 15 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 17 Jul 2017. 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 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. 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?

Efficacy assessed by verruca vulgaris lesion counts (total number of lesions present) (time frame: Day 1 through Day 57). 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 NCT02748902, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 17 Jul 2017.
