Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 19 to 70 years
  • Women only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Female age 19-70, as 19 is the legal age in Alabama
  • DLSO affecting at least 1 great toenail diagnosed with positive potassium hydroxide microscopy and culture of a dermatophyte
  • Suitable for application of topical antifungal therapy, in the opinion of the investigator
  • Target toenail thickness of 3 mm or less as measured by digital caliper, as thickness greater than 3 mm may allow inclusion of patient with severe onychomycosis, and this was the criteria used in the pivotal trial using topical efinaconazole for onychomycosis
  • Women of childbearing potential will be required to use birth control and a negative urine pregnancy test must be documented prior to initiating treatment

Who cannot join

  • History of immunosuppression or concurrent use of immunosuppressant drugs
  • History of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus
  • History of psoriasis or any other condition that might interfere with the toenail evaluation
  • Three or more dermatophytomas (streaks) on the target nail
  • Severe DLSO of the target nail
  • Patients who cannot refrain from wearing gel or plastic based polishes that are used in salons and that require curing

About this study

This study will test how well efinaconazole solution (Jublia) works to treat toenail fungal infections in patients who wear polish compared to those who do not.

Read the detailed description

Topical efinaconazole 10% solution is known to be an efficacious and safe treatment modality for toenail onychomycosis. This study will examine the compatibility of topical efinaconazole and nail polish in patients with distal and lateral subungual onychomycosis (DLSO). It is hypothesized that the treatment of DLSO with efinaconazole 10% solution will not be adversely affected by the application of nail polish.

Being tested
Efinaconazole 10% Topical Application Solution [JUBLIA], Application of Nail Polish

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Nail Polish Disruption Using the Likert Scale

    Patients will answer the following question:

    Which will be answered using a Likert scale where 0 represents no alteration in polish and 10 represents complete destruction of the polish:

    Is the quality of your polish diminished with use of Jublia?

    Measured: 52 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of Disease Improvement Using Onychomycosis Severity Index (OSI)

    Using 3rd party blinding, DLSO was assessed at baseline and at every subsequent visit using the onychomycosis severity index (OSI), measuring percent of the target nail involved, and grading the infection from mild to moderate to severe. The range for OSI is 0-20 with 20 indicating severe nails disease. Nail growth was measured at each visit. Fungal testing was done at screening, 3 months, 7 months, end of treatment (48 weeks), and end of study (52 weeks). Clinical and mycologic cure was evaluated at week 52.

    Measured: 52 week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Efinaconazole 10% Topical Application Solution [JUBLIA] and Application of Nail Polish in people with Onychomycosis of Toenail, run by University of Alabama at Birmingham 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 6 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 27 Jun 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 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 Mar 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?

Percentage of Nail Polish Disruption Using the Likert Scale (time frame: 52 weeks). 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 27 Jun 2019.
