What is being measured

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

  1. Time to success (in days) on ISGA

    Time to success (in days) on ISGA (to clear or almost clear with at least a 2-grade improvement) for intensive group through study completion, an average of 4 weeks, will be summarized by 25th percentile, median, and corresponding 95% CIs via Kaplan-Meier method. Kaplan-Meier plot will be provided as well.

    Measured: At days 1, 8,15, 21 and 29

  2. Time to success (by week) on ISGA

    Time to success (by week) on ISGA (to clear or almost clear with at least a 2-grade improvement) for all subjects through study completion, an average of 4 weeks, will be summarized by 25th percentile, median, and corresponding 95% CI via Kaplan-Meier method. Kaplan-Meier plot will be provided as well. (pooled all subjects, at days 1, 8,15, 21 and 29)

    Measured: At days 1, 8,15, 21 and 29

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Crisaborole 2% Top Oint in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by Massachusetts General Hospital 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 10 inclusion and 14 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Feb 2021. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Time to success (in days) on ISGA (time frame: At days 1, 8,15, 21 and 29). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04214197, which also lists 16 linked publications.

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 Feb 2021.
