Who may be able to join

  • Affected children must have moderate to severe AD or another skin condition that causes itch, experience itch, understand English, and be able to complete an English-based survey
  • Any child with a potentially disfiguring skin condition or change in appearance related to disease/intervention will be considered eligible. Parents of children with such conditions will also be asked to participate. Children and parents must also understand English and be able to complete an English-based survey

About this study

Official title: AAD-PEPR: Asthma and Atopic Dermatitis Validation of PROMIS Pediatric Instruments Sub-Study: Clinically Relevant Endpoints in Atopic Dermatitis in Children (CREAD-C)--Funded by Regeneron

This is designated to validate patient-reported outcomes (PRO) measures in itch-specific pediatric skin conditions, such as atopic dermatitis, and examine the ability of a modified stigma instrument to assess the severity and type of stigma experienced in atopic dermatitis and other potentially stigmatizing conditions.

Read the detailed description

This study involves a series of research and development projects targeted at two of the most common chronic diseases affecting children: asthma and atopic dermatitis (AD, or eczema). The Investigators propose to directly validate patient-reported outcomes (PRO) measures in a large cohort of itch-specific pediatric skin conditions, with a primary focus on AD. The Investigators propose to examine the ability of PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information Systems) instruments to detect meaningful and clinically significant change in disease status, as well as to create a pediatric itch item pool and PRO model for signs and symptoms of skin disease. The Investigators will also examine the ability of a modified Neuro-QOL stigma instrument to assess the severity and type of stigma experienced in AD and across various dermatologic or other potentially stigmatizing conditions. Lurie Children's Hospital will only be involved in the AD and stigma portions of this project

Being tested
Itch Questionnaire and Interview, Stigma Questionnaire and Interview, Cognitive Interview and PROMIS Itch Questionnaire

Study groups in NCT03051347
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Itch Questionnaire and InterviewOtherUp to 30 dyads of patients ages 8-17 and their parents/caregivers, as well as up to 20 parents of children ages 6mo-7 years, will participate in semi-structured interviews to evaluate the new and modified items (questions) written for the PIQ-C questionnaire
Receives: Other: Itch Questionnaire and Interview
Stigma Questionnaire and InterviewOtherTo assess stigma, up to 20 children ages 8-17 and 20 parents of children ages 5-12, will participate in semi-structured interviews to evaluate the modified Neuro-QoL stigma questionnaire. This questionnaire includes new skin-specific stigma items and existing items modified for use with children having a skin or other condition that may negatively affect their appearance
Receives: Other: Stigma Questionnaire and Interview
Validation Questionnaire and Interview-Moderate to SevereOtherFor validation, up to 200 parent/child dyads ages 5-17 with a diagnosis of moderate to severe AD during the previous 6 months will participate in teledermatology or in-person semi-structured interviews as follow-up to validate PRO measures in a large cohort of itch-specific pediatric skin conditions, specifically AD. Furthermore, this portion of the study will validate generic PROMIS measures of AD subjects' environmental stressors, illness flares, socio-demographic differences based on race/ethnicity and family income status.
Receives: Other: Cognitive Interview and PROMIS Itch Questionnaire
Validation Questionnaire and Interview-MildOtherFor validation, up to 90 parent/child dyads ages 0-17 with a diagnosis of mild AD will participate in teledermatology or in-person semi-structured interviews as follow-up to validate PRO measures in a large cohort of itch-specific pediatric skin conditions, specifically AD. Furthermore, this portion of the study will validate generic PROMIS measures of AD subjects' environmental stressors, illness flares, socio-demographic differences based on race/ethnicity and family income status for mild patients.
Receives: Other: Cognitive Interview and PROMIS Itch Questionnaire

What is being measured

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

  1. Analysis and Coding of Itch & Stigma questionnaire Responses

    Measured: 6 months duration of the study

  2. Validation of PROMIS Pediatric Instruments

    1. This study results in the validation of the ability of PROMIS (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information Systems) instruments to detect significant change in disease status, to create a pediatric itch item pool and patient-reported outcomes (PRO) model for signs and symptoms of skin disease, specifically AD, in children of ages 6 months to 17 years.
    2. Through the research study to validate PROMIS, the physicians will derive an effective system which optimally and efficiently measures pain, depressive symptoms, anxiety, physical function-mobility, fatigue, peer relationships, psychological stress experiences, stigma, and new itch-specific measures in children ages 5-17 who suffer with moderate to severe AD and children ages 0-17 who suffer from mild AD.
    3. By validating PROMIS, physicians and patients can decipher specific environmental stressors and illness flares that are clinically significant in the disease status.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Itch Questionnaire and Interview, Stigma Questionnaire and Interview and Cognitive Interview and PROMIS Itch Questionnaire in people with Atopic Dermatitis and Ichthyosis, run by Northwestern University 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 8 inclusion and 0 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 9 Oct 2020. 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.

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?

Analysis and Coding of Itch & Stigma questionnaire Responses (time frame: 6 months duration of the study). 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 9 Oct 2020.
