Active clinical trials for "Skin Diseases"

The aim of this study is to test a new, minimally invasive dual laser technique to treat vulvar lichen sclerosus. Efficacy and safety of the thermal non-ablative Nd:YAG laser and the ablative Er:YAG laser is determined and compared to the current standard treatment with high dose steroids. The hypothesis is that laser therapy is effective and similar to standard steroid therapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a one-time injection of allogeneic mesenchymal bone marrow cells is safe and beneficial in the treatment of photodamage on the face.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of baricitinib in adult and pediatric Japanese participants with Nakajo-Nishimura Syndrome/chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature (NNS/CANDLE), STING-associated vasculopathy with onset during infancy (SAVI), and Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome (AGS).

The purpose of this study is to test whether the reduction of the discomfort or itching with the scalp of patients by use of the novel electrolyzed water spray will produce improvement in the condition of the scalp.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter phase III clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AK111 in the treatment of subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

Vitiligo is a common acquired depigmentation disorder affecting approximately 2% of the world population. The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the effect and the safety of Tildrakizumab in adult participants with vitiligo.

The goal of the Radiofrequency microneedling devices (Potenza and Morpheus) used in this study is to collect clinical data for dermatologic conditions in which electrocoagulation and hemostasis is a viable mechanism for means of improvement.

The goal of this study is to examine patients undergoing incision and drainage of cutaneous abscesses to determine if routine packing of the abscess cavity affects the need for further interventions such as repeat incision and drainage, antibiotic administration or hospital admission.

A visible difference can have a profound impact in a society with a massive emphasis on appearance and "looks". A vulnerable group is adolescents with a condition affecting their appearance as a result of injuries (burns, accidents), treatment (cancer), skin conditions or congenital anomalies (birthmarks, craniofacial conditions). Research has identified potential psychological difficulties, which, if not addressed, can lead to anxiety, depression, and eating disorders. In addition to medical treatment options, aiming at diminishing a difference that may be visible to others, young people with appearance concerns also need self-management skills. However, evidence-based interventions are scarce and specialised psychological treatment is difficult to reach. The Centre for Appearance Research (Bristol, UK) has developed an online intervention for adolescents, now translated into Norwegian (www.ungfaceit.no). UNG Face IT provides easy access to specialist advice and support via a home computer, using information, videos, and interactive activities. It provides advice, teaches coping and social skills, strengthening psychological adjustment to a visible difference. A systematic evaluation of the Norwegian version is needed. UNG Face IT could potentially address unmet needs, provide a cost-effective tool to reduce the need for "face-to-face" psychological and surgical/medical services, and contribute to make online health care available for young people with a visible difference.

This is a phase 4 trial evaluating the clinical effect of combining a placebo moisturizer and non-ablative laser to improve procedural outcomes in patients with facial dyschromia. This study's objective is to evaluate both the tolerability and improvement in signs of photoaging for a placebo moisturizer used in combination with a non-ablative laser. Physician assessments, patient reported outcomes, and digital photos will be captured.
