Active clinical trials for "Eczema"

This experimental non-randomized clinical study is aimed at comparing the efficacy and safety assessment of the proposed topical therapy algorithms with the use of topical calcineurin inhibitors in reducing the severity of atopic dermatitis and the degree of development of transcutaneous sensitization in children of the first year of life.

To study the etiology and the epigenetic pathways leading to and regulating chronic itch. Similarly, to examine the mechanisms underlying skin changes, including epigenetic alterations while also testing the efficacy of medications, especially topical intervention. In this study, the investigators aim to examine chronic sensory disorder mechanisms related to chronic itch.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Cetaphil® Restoraderm® skin restoring moisturizer in reducing the signs and symptoms of very dry atopic skin in young children. Subjects with atopic dermatitis (AD) in remission phase will be randomized to receive either Cetaphil® Restoraderm® skin restoring body wash only, or the same body wash in association with Cetaphil® Restoraderm® skin restoring moisturizer.

This trial will be a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, safety, tolerability and efficacy trial of SAN007 (5% East Indian sandalwood oil in a cream formulation) treatment regimen when administered daily for up to 28 days to patients from 3 months to 65 years of age, with atopic dermatitis.

During the period of 2000-2003, 179 healthy, term infants with no previous signs of allergic disease were recruited and randomized to daily intake of cereals with or without the addition of Lactobacillus paracasei subspecies paracasei strain F19 (LF19) from 4-13 months of age. The effects of LF19 on gut microbial composition, infections, allergies, immunological development, growth and blood lipids were monitored. Of 179 included infants, 171 completed the study. The study product was well tolerated with no observed side effects. Compliance was excellent. In a follow-up study, the aim is to investigate the long-term effects of feeding LF19 during weaning on allergies, immune programming, overweight, gut microbial composition and oral health in 8-year old children. The investigators' primary outcome will be to determine whether daily intake of LF19 during weaning results in less eczema at 8 years of age, and if the preventive effect encompasses also respiratory allergies and immunoglobulin E (IgE) - sensitization. The long term effects on gut microbial composition, overweight and metabolic markers will be investigated. Furthermore, the possible preventive effects of LF19 on caries will be assessed.

This will be a double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled study. 253 children were recruited and randomly assigned into one of 2 groups to receive either normal infant formula or formula with Bifidobacterium longum and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. The primary aim is to assess the effect of early administration (from birth) of probiotics on the incidence of allergic sensitization, eczema, asthma and rhinitis.

This study will look at melatonin vs. first generation antihistamine vs. placebo in improving nighttime itching in children with atopic dermatitis.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib cream in adult participants with diagnosis of chronic hand eczema (CHE) and moderate to severe disease activity (Investigator's Global Assessement (IGA) of CHE score 3 or 4).

Purpose: To study the etiology and the epigenetic pathways leading to and regulating chronic itch. Similarly, to examine the mechanisms underlying skin changes, including epigenetic alterations while also testing the efficacy of opioid antagonists in atopic dermatitis. In this study, the investigators aim to examine chronic sensory disorder mechanisms related to chronic itch.

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of picture-based prevention education among professional hospital cleaners in relation to hand eczema. This is a single-blinded randomized clinical trial including hospital cleaners at three different hospitals.
