Active clinical trials for "Dermatitis"

The treatment of chronic inflammatory skin diseases is a difficult point in clinical diseases, which mainly include patients with pathological scars, sarcoidosis and chronic eczema. Chronic nodular lesions and long-term itching symptoms bring great physical and mental pain to patients. Long-term repeated treatments are required. At present, the most commonly used treatment is intralesional injection of glucocorticoids. Long-term glucocorticoid injections have some side effects, including pain, hypopigmentation, skin atrophy, pigmentation, telangiectasia and menstrual disorders in women. There are a large number of clinical patients who still lack safe and effective drugs, including children, pregnant women, patients with weakened or defective immunity, and even patients with mild inflammatory skin diseases with mainly itching symptoms. The systemic and topical application of antihistamine drugs provides new ideas for the treatment of inflammatory skin. As the most commonly used clinical antihistamine, chlorpheniramine has a long history in the treatment of allergic diseases and can improve the body's inflammatory state. At the same time, the drug has high safety and is suitable for children and pregnant women, or patients with underlying diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and immunodeficiency diseases.

The main purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of KAM2904 Face Cream and KAM3008 Body Lotion in reducing the symptoms of mild to moderate AD. Efficacy will be evaluated by comparing SCORAD and Eczema Area Severity Index (EASI) in a group of subjects treated with KAM2904 Face Cream and KAM3008 Body Lotion (the treatment group), versus a group of subjects treated with a petrolatum-based moisturizer (the control group). Safety will be determined by the number and severity of Adverse Events Device-Related.

The main purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of KAM1403 GEL in reducing the symptoms of mild to moderate Radiation Dermatitis. Efficacy will be evaluated by comparing symptoms assessment during and post radiotherapy: erythema, desquamation, edema, moist desquamation and ulceration in the KAM1403 Gel treated group versus a group of subjects treated with the Aloe vera Gel (the control group). In addition, a comparison will be made between subjects' self evaluation in the treatment group versus the control group. Safety will be determined by the number and severity of Adverse Events Device-Related.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of topical R1 and R2 for prophylaxis of acute radiation dermatitis in patients with breast cancer receiving radiotherapy.

Oral isotretinoin is the gold standard drug to treat moderate to severe acne. Other indications like seborrhea, seborrheic dermatitis have been suggested. There is risk of reversible mucocutaneous side effects, as well as alterations in lipid profile and transaminases. The major problem is teratogenicity which demands pregnancy control from treatment beginning to one month after treatment end. Seborrhea and seborrheic dermatitis are chronic conditions characterized by oily skin, hair and scalp, erythema, desquamation and negative impact on quality of life. This will be an interventional, therapeutic and quality of life randomized, comparative (parallel groups), blinded evaluation clinical trial, comprising 50 men and women, aged 18 to 40. Treatment with low-dose oral isotretinoin will be compared to topical anti-seborrheic products to evaluate the reduction of sebaceous secretion and colonization of affected areas by yeasts of Malassezia gender. Efficacy will be evaluated by clinical parameters, as well as by sebum secretion measure and application of quality of life questionnaires. Safety will be evaluated by skin hydration measure, side effects report and observation. For subjects using oral isotretinoin blood counting, transaminases, lipid profile and pregnancy test will be requested as selection criteria, on days 30 and 180. Data will be submitted to statistical analysis.

This is a multicenter, open-label Phase 1b study in pediatric patients age 2-11 years old with extensive atopic dermatitis.

Investigators will sample the skin and blood of patients with chronic skin conditions (including but not limited to atopic dermatitis (AD), contact dermatitis, hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), and psoriasis) to study the expression of anti-oxidative enzymes, skin barrier proteins and inflammatory molecules. In patients with atopic dermatitis, investigators will also measure skin barrier function using noninvasive devices. These results will be correlated with the disease severity in atopic dermatitis patients.

Since 2000 therapeutic clothing or functional textiles based on silver or chitosan as antibacterial agents were introduced as therapeutics of atopic dermatitis (AD). These agents aim to reduce skin colonization with Staphylococcus (S.) aureus. S. aureus induces further dysregulation of the inflammatory process and increased colonization with S. aureus is correlated with increased AD severity. Based on the theoretical mode of action and clinical experience, we assume a higher effectiveness of antimicrobial therapeutic clothing compared to control therapeutic clothing on reducing AD severity. The goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of antibacterial clothing based on silver or chitosan on the doctor-reported AD severity in patients with moderate to severe AD. Secondary goals are to retrieve information about the effect of antimicrobial clothing on clinical symptoms, quality of life, S. aureus colonization, AD medication use and the satisfaction regarding the clothing.

Conduct a clinical trial of integration of Chinese and Western medicine to evaluate whether the association of traditional Chinese medicine therapy has a remission effect on atopic dermatitis, and to explore the remission of lesions after an association of Chinese herbal medicine, and the correlation of syndrome differentiation types before and after treatment with Chinese and Western medicine, with a view to better understand the efficacy of atopic dermatitis in the treatment of the same disease in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and provide another option for patients with atopic dermatitis.

Extrinsic - atopic dermatitis is characterized by increased of IgE serum levels. Acute extrinsic - atopic dermatitis is a type 1 hypersensitivity that involve various inflammatory mediator including Interleukin-4, Interleukin-12, and Interferon-Ɣ. Recent treatment of atopic dermatitis mainly focused on reducing the inflammation through topical and systemic regiments. However, no systemic medication could control the atopic dermatitis remission yet, and the current immunosuppressive agent used may cause many side effects if administered on a long term basis. In the future, treatment of atopic dermatitis were specifically targeted to inhibit the role of Th2. Cimetidine is H2 receptor antihistamine that has been widely used as gastrointestinal medication for a long time. Cimetidine could modulate the immune system by activating the Th1 and lowering the Th2 activity, and lowering the IgE levels thus reducing the severity of atopic dermatitis.
