Active clinical trials for "Dermatitis, Atopic"

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of apremilast in patients with recalcitrant atopic or contact dermatitis.

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of DNK333 in patients with atopic dermatitis suffering from pruritus, who require systemic treatment of the disease.

A study to compare the safety and efficacy of Protopic and Elidel in treating mild Atopic Dermatitis in pediatric patients

WBI-1001 is a synthetic,new, non-steroid, small molecule being developed as a candidate drug for the topical, cream treatment of inflammatory skin diseases. As such, it affects T-cells through inhibition of T-cell activities including their infiltration processes, and it shows direct anti-inflammatory manifestation in the mouse edema model. This was a 28 day study (plus one follow-up week) on patients with Atopic Dermatitis, and 36 patients were treated randomly, BID with either 0.5%, 1.0% or placebo. Blood samples were taken weekly for PK analysis.

Patients with facial atopic eczema and a poor response to topical corticosteroid applied either Protopic or Fluticasone ointment twice a day for 3 weeks. They could continue during 3 more weeks once a day if needed or change for the other ointment.

The primary objectives are to establish the therapeutic equivalence of tacrolimus ointment 0.1%, manufactured by Taro Pharmaceuticals Inc. and Protopic® (tacrolimus), 0.1% topical ointment (Astellas Pharma US, Inc.) and to show superiority over vehicle in the treatment of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. The secondary objectives are to compare the adverse event (AE) profiles of the two ointments and to investigate their systemic absorption at steady state.

This study will assess the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of Alefacept in patient with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis who could not be adequately controlled with topical therapies.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a very common disorder that is characterized by pruritic inflammatory skin lesions, with patients usually having an individual or family history of atopic diseases in their background. Phototherapy is among the first-line approaches in the management of AD. In this context, a variety of studies have shown a beneficial effect of natural or artificial UV radiation in atopic dermatitis (AD). The past ten years have seen the introduction of new phototherapeutic regimens for AD, including UVA1 and NB-UVB.UVA1 seems to be more effective than the above mentioned broadband spectra, in particular in acute severe AD. The aim of the present study is the comparison of UVA1 and NB-UVB phototherapy in the treatment of AD. Additionally, the course of several cytokines, human beta-defensins, and SMAD-proteins will be evaluated during the course of treatment.

The study will evaluate the safety and effect of pimecrolimus cream 1% on quality of life of caregivers of South African children with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis (AD).

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of pimecrolimus cream 1% in relation to the improvement of pruritus in pediatric patients (2- to 11- year-old) with mild to moderate atopic dermatitis.
