About this study

Official title: An International, Multicenter, Open-label, Long Term Extension Study Evaluating the Safety of Diacerein 1% Ointment Topical Formulation in Subjects With Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex (EBS)

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long term safety and tolerability of diacerein 1% ointment for 2 treatment cycles in subjects with EBS that previously participated in the CCP-020-301 or the CCP-020-101 studies.

Read the detailed description

This is an international, multicenter, open-label, long term extension study evaluating the safety of topical Diacerein 1% Ointment for the treatment of subjects with EBS. At Visit 1, EBS subjects who completed the CCP-020-301 double-blind safety and efficacy study or participated in the CCP-020-101 PK study (feeder studies) who meet all the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be eligible to complete 2 treatment cycles of CCP-020.

Each treatment cycle will consist of 8 weeks on treatment (once-daily, at home study medication applications) followed by 8 weeks off treatment (only Investigator approved bland, non-medicated emollient/moisturizer, routine cleansing products and sunscreens) with a maximum of 2 treatment cycles allowed for up to 52 weeks.

At Baseline Visit (corresponding to the final study visit of the feeder study), the investigator will perform a clinical assessment and determine if any of the subject's lesions require treatment (up to 30% BSA). If the subject has active lesions as determined by the Investigator's clinical assessment, the subject will initiate a cycle of once-daily, at home study medication application to their EBS lesions for 8 weeks (treatment period) followed by an 8-week period where no treatment will be administered. Subjects presenting with no active lesions (as determined by the Investigator's clinical assessment) will not begin treatment and instead, will be instructed to return to the clinic for re-evaluation in 8 weeks or upon worsening of EBS lesions, whichever happens first.

Treatment periodExperimentalSubjects with active lesions as determined Investigator's clinical assessment, will initiate a cycle of applying diacerein 1% ointment once-daily, study medication, at home to their EBS lesions for 8 weeks. Following the Treatment Period, subjects will go Off Treatment for 8 weeks using only investigator approved bland, non-medicated emollient/moisturizer, routine cleansing products and sunscreens. As determined Investigator's clinical assessment, subjects may enter into another Treatment Period of 8 weeks. The duration of a subject's participation in the extension study may be as short as 32 weeks or as long as 52 weeks depending on the cycle initiation schedule for each individual subject.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing diacerein 1% ointment in people with Epidermolysis Bullosa and Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex, run by Castle Creek Pharmaceuticals, LLC at 3 sites 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 4 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 16 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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 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 16 Sep 2020). 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?

Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (time frame: up to 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 16 Sep 2020; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
