Active clinical trials for "Eczema"

This is an open label, non-comparative investigation to determine the tolerance of Eczema Repair Emollient on healthy subjects with dry/atopic and very dry/atopic skin. The Eczema Repair Emollient will be applied for 47 hours under occlusion. Skin tolerance will be assessed immediately and 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal.

The incidence of atopic dermatitis has increased dramatically in this years. Atopic dermatitis occurs due to complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors. One of the genes that consistenly linked with AD occurences is filaggrin gene (FLG gene). Mutation on the gene can induce disruption in epidermal cytoskeleton aggregation which serves to form protein-lipid, thereby disrupting the skin permeability to water and outside particles such as allergens.8-14 Several attempts have been made to prevent the occurences and progressivity of AD, one of them is LCPUFA supplementation. Until now, the clinical and meta-analysis studies have shown inconsistent results, but LCPUFA intervention in early life gives more consistent and protective results. In this study investigators would like to know about the influence of FLG gene mutation to the occurrence of atopic dermatitis, to know the composition of LCPUFA in early life in order to see protective effects of several LCPUFA, to see the influences of FADS1 and FADS2 gene polymorphism towards LCPUFA concentration from umbilical artery and buccal swab in early life and at the time AD occurs, to know about the diet at the time of AD occurrence, and to know the role of the ratio of DHA towards AA level in the development of AD due to their antagonistic effects, and to see the interactions between FLG gene, FADS gene and LCPUFA level in the development of AD.

The primary objective of the study is to characterize the clinical phenotype(s) of DUPIXENT®-associated conjunctivitis events. The secondary objectives of the study are to characterize the course of conjunctivitis events during the observation period and collect and assess data on treatment for conjunctivitis events and its effectiveness.

This trial is a single-center two arm, open label observational prospective study, that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of crisaborole ointment, 2% alone compared to a combination therapy of crisaborole and a topical corticosteroid (Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment, 0.1%) over a 8 week period for the treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis.

The skin is innervated by a network of nociceptive sensory neurons (nociceptors) whose primary function is the transmission of pain and pruritus signals to the central nervous system. Their role in atopic dermatitis (AD), characterized by an exacerbated type 2 immune response, is only partially understood. Nevertheless, large amounts of neuropeptides, including substance P (SP), are found in the serum of patients, their level being correlated with the clinical severity of AD. Mast cells (MC) are part of the cells of the immune system residing in the skin. MCs have neuro-receptors of the Mas-related G protein-coupled receptors family (MRGPR) and in particular MRGPRX2 (the receptor for cationic molecules [including SP] for MCs) through which they could communicate in a privileged way. with the nociceptors. Preliminary data obtained in mice show that its mouse orthologue "MrgprB2" is absolutely necessary for the development of type 2 immunity and the pathological characteristics of a preclinical "DA-like" model (manuscript in preparation). The investigators therefore hypothesize that the activation of MCs expressing MRGPRX2 by nociceptors producing SP plays a key role in the development of type 2 inflammation in AD in humans.

The aim of this prospective, uncontrolled clinical study is to evaluate the clinical effect of Ectoin® Dermatitis Cream-EHK02 on skin hydration and transepidermal water loss (TEWL) in subjects with atopic dermatitis after single and multiple applications. Furthermore, data concerning the subjective impression of the study preparation should be collected.

The primary objective of the present multicentre, prospective, non-interventional study (NIS) is gathering knowledge on the actual use and effectiveness of Elidel® in Chinese patients with mild to moderate AD affecting sensitive skin areas in routine clinical practice.

This is a prospective, open label, single arm, and observational and multicenter study to assess the correlation between PEST and SCORAD scores in the management of AD with the Ceradan® regimen.

Atopic Dermatitis (AD), also known as eczema, is a skin disease that causes the skin to be hot, dry and scaly, and have severe itching. There are different kinds of eczema. Eczema herpeticum (EH) is a type of eczema that spreads due to an underlying herpes virus infection. The purpose of this research study is to identify the risk factors that may cause EH.

This extension study is being conducted to collect post-treatment safety information on patients who previously participated in the core clinical trial.
