What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Complete Cure: Post Treatment (Day 17)

    Complete cure will be determined by negative fungal culture or negative microscopic evaluation via KOH preparation and a Clinical Symptom Severity Score of ≤ 8 (0-64) on Day 17. Improvement is expressed as a lower score.

    Measured: Day 17

  2. Number of Participants With Complete Cure: Post Treatment (Day 31)

    Complete cure will be determined by a minimum of a 12- point reduction on day 17 in the Clinical Symptom Severity Score (from >20 to <8) on a scale of 0-64. Improvement is expressed as a lower score.

    Measured: Day 31

  3. Number of Participants With Therapeutic Failure: Post Treatment (Day 17)

    Positive fungi colonization via mycological culture OR microscopic evaluation (KOH) AND a post treatment Clinical Symptom Severity Score of ≤ 8 (0-64) on Day 17. Improvement is expressed as a lower score.

    Measured: Day 17

  4. Number of Participants withTherapeutic Failure: Post Treatment Day 31 AND a Post Treatment Clinical Symptom Severity Score (Day 31) of < 8.

    Positive fungi colonization via mycological culture OR microscopic evaluation (KOH) AND a post treatment Clinical Symptom Severity Score of ≤ 8 (0-64) on Day 31. Improvement is expressed as a lower score.

    Measured: Day 31

  5. Incidence of Adverse Events

    Number of moderate A/E possibly related to treatment

    Measured: Duration of the study, 31 days for each participant.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in Participants Clinical Symptom Severity Score Between Day 1 and Day 31

    Clinical Symptom Severity Score change in score on Day and Day 31 between all participants with an initial Clinical Symptom severity Score of >20 (0-64 scale) in the two study groups.

    Increased improvement is expressed as largest negative change and a lower score.

    Measured: Day 1 and 31

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Nitric Oxide and Water in people with Tinea Pedis, run by Nitric Solutions Inc. at 1 site 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 6 inclusion and 10 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 Sep 2019. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Sep 2019). 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 Complete Cure: Post Treatment (Day 17) (time frame: Day 17). The study lists 5 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 20 Sep 2019.
