Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Reduction in Lesion Count
Inflammatory acne lesions with both study acne cream products after 6 months of treatment compared to baseline. This will be measured as the mean percent change from baseline to week 24 in the inflammatory lesion count.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Inflammatory Lesion count over time
to assess the mean percent change from baseline to weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24 inflammatory lesion counts
Non-inflammatory acne lesion over time
to assess the mean percent change from baseline to weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24 in non-inflammatory lesion counts
Investigator Global Assessment over time
to assess the mean percent change from baseline to weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24 in IGA
Treatment Areas over time
to assess the mean percent change from baseline to weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24 in treatment areas (erythema, dryness, stinging or burning, erosion, edema, pain and itching)
Quality of Life over time
The Acne-QoL questionnaire containing 19 questions organized into four domains which address the impact of facial acne on health-related quality of life will be administered. These are Self Perception, Role-social, Role-emotional and Acne Symptoms. Results will assess the mean percent change from baseline to weeks 6, 12, 18, and 24 in QoL.
