About this study

Official title: Fractional CO2 Laser Combined With Platelet Rich Plasma Fluid Versus Gel Form in Treatment of Atrophic Acne Scars: A Randomized Clinical Trial

This study is to test the efficacy of fractional laser combined with either PRP fluid or PRP gel in the treatment of atrophic acne scars

Read the detailed description

The study will include 20 patients, treated with fractional CO2 laser plus PRP fluid on one side of the face and fractional CO2 laser plus PRP gel on the other side.

Choosing which side of the face will be injected with PRP fluid and which side will be injected with PRP gel will be chosen according to a randomization table for each patient.

Being tested
Fractional laser with PRP fluid or PRP gel

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Test which combination is more effective, fractional laser with PRP fluid or fractional laser with PRP gel

    Effectiveness of each combination will be measured with OCT, depth of a fixed scar on each side of the face will be measured at baseline and then compared with 1 month after the last session and 3 months after the last session

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Fractional laser with PRP fluid or PRP gel in people with Atrophic Acne Scar, run by Yasmine Ahmed Abd El-Maguid El-Hadidy at 1 site in Egypt.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 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 Egypt. 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?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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?

Contact Heba A Abd El Kader, MD (01142479792, H_abdelkader2007@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Test which combination is more effective, fractional laser with PRP fluid or fractional laser with PRP gel (time frame: one year). 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 8 Oct 2020.
