Active clinical trials for "Dermatitis, Atopic"

Background: Severe atopic dermatitis, also known as eczema, is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects both children and adults and causes severe itching and skin redness. Current treatments of atopic dermatitis include topical creams and lotions, light therapy, and medications. However, the difficulty with long-term treatment for the chronic and severe nature of the disease requires more effective and better-tolerated therapeutic options. Anakinra is a drug that blocks a substance called interleukin-1 (IL-1), which may be important in causing the inflammation in atopic dermatitis. Researchers are interested in determining whether anakinra can be used to help treat atopic dermatitis. Anakinra has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat rheumatoid arthritis in adults and children, but it has not been approved for use in adults or children with atopic dermatitis and is considered an experimental treatment in this study. In this study Anakinra will be administered as an injection under the skin every day for 3 months Objectives: - To assess the safety and effectiveness of using anakinra to treat severe atopic dermatitis in children. Eligibility: - Children between 10 and 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with severe atopic dermatitis that has not responded to standard treatment. Design: Initial Screening: Participants will have an initial screening visit with a complete physical examination and medical history, blood and urine tests, photographs of the skin ,skin biopsy, and other tests as required. Run-in Period: At the screening visit, participants will receive a diary card and will be asked to track their atopic dermatitis symptoms on standard treatment for 2 months. Start of Treatment: At the end of the 2 month Run-in period participants will return for an inpatient visit (2 days) to receive the initial dose of anakinra and will be watched for any side effects. During the inpatient visit, participants will have additional examinations and blood and urine tests, and will be instructed on how to administer the anakinra injections at home. Treatment Period: - Participants will return once a week for the first 2 weeks of treatment, at the end of the first month, and then once a month for the following 2 months, for a physical exam and blood tests. Participants will be asked to record symptoms related to their atopic dermatitis, anakinra administration and any side effects related to the anakinra on the diary card. The diary cards will be reviewed and collected at each visit.- End of Treatment Period: At the end of 3 months of treatment with anakinra, participants will again be asked to record symptoms related to their atopic dermatitis on the diary card. Participants will be seen once a month for 3 months for a physical exam, blood tests and review of the diary card. . The final study visit will take place at the end of the 3rd month and will include a physical exam, blood tests, photographs and skin biopsy.

This 4-week study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of crisaborole ointment 2%; crisaborole vehicle; topical corticosteroid and topical calcineurin inhibitor, applied twice daily (BID) in subjects who are at least 2 years of age with mild-moderate AD. A Sub-Study of Optical Coherence Tomography and Biomarkers in Subjects ages 2 to <18 years old, with Mild to Moderate Atopic Dermatitis, treated with Crisaborole Ointment, 2% or Crisaborole Vehicle Ointment or Hydrocortisone Butyrate 0.1% Cream applied BID will also be conducted at select sites.

This is a Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicenter study of repeated doses of MOR106 administered as IV infusion. MOR106, is an antibody which is being developed as a treatment for diseases such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. An antibody is a protein that is made by the body in a defense reaction against viruses and bacteria or other small particles. In this case, MOR106 will act against IL-17C interleukin by binding to it. This way it could be possible to act against these diseases.

The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of REGN3500 monotherapy in Atopic dermatitis (AD), as well as understand the dose-response relationship, compared with placebo treatment, in adult patients with moderate-to-severe AD. Secondary objectives are to: Assess the safety and tolerability of subcutaneous (SC) doses of REGN3500 monotherapy in adult patients with moderate-to-severe AD Assess the Pharmacokinetics (PK) of REGN3500 in adult patients with moderate-to-severe AD Assess the immunogenicity of REGN3500 in adult patients with moderate-to-severe AD

To assess the long term safety and efficacy of treatment with BI 655130 in patients with AD who have completed and have responded to treatment in the parent study 1368-0032

The purpose of this study is to understand the effect that T helper 2 (Th2) blockade has on well-described pathophysiological features of Atopic Dermatitis (AD), for example: barrier, epidermal activation, dysbiosis and epidermal lipids.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bermekimab in participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD).

Primary objective: To assess the disease control of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis in patients aged 12 years and above treated with dupilumab therapy using Atopic Dermatitis Control Tool (ADCT) after 24 weeks of treatment. Secondary objectives: To figure the proportion of patients with reduction of ADCT score by 5 points after 4, 12, and 24 weeks of treatment. To figure the proportion of patients with ADCT score less than 7 at weeks 4, 12, and 24. Assess the effectiveness of dupilumab in moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD) patients, using the severity score as routine practice SCORing Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD). To describe comorbidities related to type 2 inflammation. To characterize the safety profile of dupilumab in the local Gulf population. To evaluate treatment satisfaction in the local Gulf population.

The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of benralizumab versus placebo and to compare benralizumab dosing regimens during extension period.

Skin barrier impairment and familial atopy have been implicated as crucial risk factors for the development of atopic dermatitis (AD). Additional risk factors have been explored, including gestational weight, height, age, familial smoking habits, proximity to urban centers and others. However, a comprehensive study focusing on the entire spectrum of risk factors has yet to be undertaken. Such a study could enable predictive capabilities able to inform medical professionals as to a newborn's inherent risk to develop AD, and potentially recommend appropriate preventative modalities to prevent or delay disease onset.
