About this study
Official title: A Randomised, Open-label, Maximal Use Trial, Evaluating the Pharmacokinetic Profile of Active Ingredients and Their Metabolites After Application of MC2-01 Cream Compared With Active Comparator in Subjects With Extensive Psoriasis Vulgaris
This is a phase 2, randomised, open-label, parallel-group, multicentre trial in which MC2-01 cream and calcipotriene [CAL]/betamethasone [BDP] ointment (comparator) is investigated in subjects with clinically diagnosed extensive psoriasis vulgaris.
Read the detailed description
The MC2-01 cream is designed for optimal patient satisfaction - it quickly absorbs into the skin leaving it nicely moisturized allowing patients to move on with daily routines. In this trial, the MC2-01 cream will be compared to a marketed calcipotriene [CAL]/betamethasone dipropionate [BDP] ointment. The purpose of the trial, is to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of MC2-01 cream and the comparator under maximum use conditions.

- Psoriasis Vulgaris

Secondary outcomes (8)
Number of Subjects With Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal [HPA] Suppression After 4 Weeks of Treatment

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing MC2-01 Cream and CAL/BDP combination in people with Psoriasis Vulgaris, run by MC2 Therapeutics 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 19 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 24 Dec 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. 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 24 Dec 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?
Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of the Active Ingredient Calcipotriene (time frame: Week 4). The study lists 8 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 24 Dec 2019.
