Active clinical trials for "Eczema"

The purpose of this study is to investigate the pharmacokinetics and safety of OPA-15406 in adult subjects with atopic dermatitis

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to be conducted in the United States in subjects with treatment-resistant pruritus diagnosed with atopic dermatitis.

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic disease characterized by itching and eczematous lesions. In adults, eczema commonly localizes to the hands or feet. Several studies have implicated bacterial contamination, especially with Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), to be a factor in atopic dermatitis, as infection with this bacteria correlates with disease severity. No trial to date has investigated how to treat S. aureus infection in adults with hand or hand/foot dermatitis. Using retapamulin ointment in the nose and on the hands or hands/feet, the investigators expect to have a significant clearance rate of s. aureus infection. The investigators believe that treating the bacterial infection along with treating the condition with a topical corticosteroid will significantly decrease the severity of hand/foot dermatitis in our study population.

There is a lack of prospective scientific data on the regular use of moisturizers in patients at risk of developing atopic dermatitis. Although generally accepted and widely used for secondary prevention, emollients have not been studied as a primary prevention strategy. Strategies previously studied for the prevention of atopic dermatitis include maternal and child's dietary manipulations, allergens avoidance, delay of food introduction, exclusive breastfeeding and probiotic supplementation. Despite years of research, none of those strategies yielded to strong evidence of a protective effect. There is therefore a need to explore novel strategies. There is a need to compare the cumulative incidence rate of atopic dermatitis in newborns using a standard bathing and moisturizing routine with a good moisturizer to a non interventional group. This 2-year study will recruit approximately four hundred and sixty (460) pregnant women with a first degree relative of the child to be born who currently has (or previously had) a diagnosis of atopic dermatitis in order to study approximately 200 eligible newborns in each of the two study groups at the beginning of the study. Pregnant women will be randomized (1:1) to either daily use of the moisturizer Lipikar Balm AP (applied to their infant) starting from birth (Group 1) immediately after bathing or to no intervention (Group 2).

This is a multi-center, open-label trial to evaluate safety and pharmacokinetics of topical delgocitinib cream applied to pediatric subjects (2-17 years) and adult subjects (18 years and above) with atopic dermatitis.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of OPA-15406 ointment in patients with atopic dermatitis.

Narrowband ultraviolet B phototherapy is the "standard" phototherapy for atopic eczema; ultraviolet A1 is sometimes used but is not a widely available treatment. We do not know the most important chromophores in treating atopic eczema; in which phototherapy is thought to work by improving epidermal barrier function, having beneficial effects on skin microbiome and local immunosuppression. It seems plausible that there are several chromophores and that 'targetting' several at once with different wavebands should help and for severe eczema that has not responded adequately to narrowband UVB or ultraviolet A1 alone the combination is sometimes used. This study is to test if the combination is moderately to greatly more effective than narrowband ultraviolet B monotherapy amongst patients referred for any form of first-line phototherapy for atopic eczema.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a combined dermatological treatment in children up to 5 years old with mild or moderated atopic dermatitis.

An Open Label, Safety Study to Assess the Potential for Adrenal Suppression Following Treatment with DSXS in Patients with Atopic Dermatitis

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of baricitinib as monotherapy in participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis.
