Trial summary

Onychomycosis, a common pathology of the toenails, is even more prevalent among diabetic subjects. Nearly 26 million Americans suffer from diabetes, and approximately one-third of subjects with diabetes have toenail onychomycosis. Read more about this study

About this study

Onychomycosis, a common pathology of the toenails, is even more prevalent among diabetic subjects. Nearly 26 million Americans suffer from diabetes, and approximately one-third of subjects with diabetes have toenail onychomycosis. Numerous studies have addressed the efficacy and safety of both topical and oral antifungal treatment options for onychomycosis in diabetic subjects. However, no study to date has specifically addressed the efficacy and safety of efinaconazole among diabetic subjects.

The objective of this noncomparative, uncontrolled study is to determine the efficacy of topical efinaconazole 10% for toenail onychomycosis among subjects with diabetes mellitus. Specific indicators to measure efficacy of treatment will be the mycological cure rate, complete cure rate, and treatment success. Furthermore, an additional goal of the study is to gain knowledge of safety in the setting of a cohort of diabetic subjects

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary Endpoint - Efficacy

    The primary efficacy end point is the proportion of subjects achieving complete cure at week 50. Complete cure is to be defined as a combination of 0% clinical involvement and mycological cure (mycological cure defined as negative KOH examination and negative fungal culture of the target toenail sample).

    Measured: 50 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Secondary Endpoint - Efficacy

    The first secondary efficacy end point is mycological cure, defined as negative KOH examination and negative fungal culture of the target toenail sample.

    Measured: 50 weeks

  2. Secondary Endpoint - Efficacy

    The second secondary efficacy end point is clinical cure, defined as 0% clinical involvement of the target toenail.

    Measured: 50 weeks

  3. Secondary Endpoint - Safety (Occurrence of Adverse Events: Type and Frequency)

    The secondary safety endpoint is the occurrence of adverse events (type and frequency).

    Measured: 50 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Efinaconazole Topical in people with Onychomycosis, run by Western University of Health Sciences 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 2 inclusion and 8 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 30 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 23 Oct 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?

Primary Endpoint - Efficacy (time frame: 50 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 30 Oct 2020.
