Active clinical trials for "Eczema"

This is an open-label, single-sequence DDI study designed to examine the effects of dupilumab on the pharmacokinetics of selected cytochrome P450 substrates in adult patients with moderate to severe AD. The study consists of a screening period (day -35 to -2), study period 1 (day -1 to 7), study period 2 (day 8 to 50), and a follow-up period (day 51 to 135 [end of study]). Following completion of study period 2 (Day 50), patients will be given the option to enroll into the Open-Label Extension (OLE) study R668-AD-1225. Patients who decline will be followed for the next 12 weeks (Day 135).

Elevated levels of immunoglobuline E in blood are said to promote the occurence of atopic dermatitis; in fact, many patients with atopic dermatitis have high IgE levels. This study tried to explore whether the depletion of IgE from blood and skin might result in a change of immunological parameters and might alter the clinical course of the disease.

The aim of the planned study will be to evaluate the effect of repeated cryostimulation treatments on immunological, morphological, and biochemical indicators of the peripheral blood of patients with atopic dermatitis (AD). The aim of the study will be also to measure the oiling, hydration and pH of the skin of patients with AD after a series of treatments in a cryogenic chamber. Each participant will complete a Brief Questionnaire on Quality of Life, Life Satisfaction Index, Self Evaluation Questionnare and DERMATOLOGY LIFE QUALITY INDEX (before and after the WBC procedures).

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with pruritus. Methotrexate can be used to treat refractory disease to conventional therapy. It will be conducted a single arm trial with twelve adult patients with moderate to severe AD on methotrexate for 24 weeks. Investigators intend to evaluate the effect methotrexate on cytokines and chemokines involved in the inflammatory response, on IgE levels, on pruritus, and on EASI and SCORAD severity scores.

This is a Phase 1 parallel-cohort study of crisaborole ointment 2% to evaluate the skin irritation potential in adult Japanese healthy subjects in Cohort 1, and to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK in adult Japanese subjects with mild to moderate AD in Cohort 2.

Exploratory, multi-centric, randomized, vehicle-controlled, investigator-blind, parallel group study, involved participants with chronic lesions of Atopic Dermatitis (AD) to evaluate the local and systemic safety of CD5024 0.3% cream over a 6-week treatment period compared to its vehicle.

The purpose of this study is to validate a left-right design with respect to detecting a difference in efficacy after 3 weeks of treatment between an active treatment and a vehicle in adults with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis

Many studies had demonstrated that probiotics could be applied in the prevention and adjuvant treatment for allergic diseases. In this study, we investigate the effects of Lactobacillus paracasei GMNL-133(LP), Lactobacillus fermentum GM-090 (LF), and Lactobacillus paracasei GMNL-133(LP) with Lactobacillus fermentum GM-090 (LF) combination products used for adjuvant treatment of atopic dermatitis and asthma.

This study seeks to investigate the role of pimecrolimus in restoring disturbed skin barrier function and reversing epidermal abnormalities found in atopic dermatitis (AD). The project is based on findings the investigators presented at the recent SID meeting in Providence and published in the J Invest Dermatol (122: 1423-31, 2004). The investigators research shows that AD is characterized by impaired skin barrier function, reduced stratum corneum hydration, impaired epidermal lipid composition and epidermal differentiation. In this proposed project, the investigators wish to examine the influence of pimecrolimus and betamethasone valerate on transepidermal water loss (TEWL) as a marker of the skin barrier function, on stratum corneum hydration, on stratum corneum lipid content and on epidermal differentiation regarding keratins and cornified envelope proteins in AD patients. The study involves biophysical measurements of TEWL and skin hydration, lipid analysis, immuno-histochemistry, Western blotting and micro array techniques. This study shall clarify whether pimecrolimus restores the epidermal barrier and whether this contributes to the beneficial effect of pimecrolimus on AD. Objectives: To explore the stratum corneum hydration, transepidermal water loss, capacity for barrier repair and the integrity of the stratum corneum in patients treated with 1 % pimecrolimus cream when applied twice a day to atopic dermatitis of the upper limbs, and to access the substance's influences on the epidermis through histological, ultra-structural, and biochemical analysis using punch biopsies from day 1 of one arm and day 22 from both treated arms. 0.1 % betamethasone valerate cream b.i.d will be used as a control treatment.

This study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of M516102 and to evaluate the dose response relationship of M516102 and placebo, in the treatment of pruritus associated with atopic dermatitis.
