Active clinical trials for "Dermatitis, Atopic"

Pilot study of a soft, flexible hydration sensor

Wrist-worn accelerometers and associated data analysis platforms will provide quantitative and qualitative knowledge regarding the action of scratching and sleep quantity in a symptomatic Atopic Dermatitis (AD) population. The overall research aim is to evaluate the sensitivity of digital devices to capture drug-induced (standard of care treatments; SOC) quantitative changes in nighttime scratch and sleep quantity in AD subjects. In the current study, the investigators aim to evaluate the ability of wrist-worn accelerometers to detect significant and clinically meaningful changes in scratch behavior and sleep quantity in patients with symptomatic AD aged 2 to 75 years, receiving topical SOC treatment for AD. To evaluate this experimental paradigm, using wearable accelerometers, traditional patient-reported outcome measures/observer-reported outcome (ObsRO) (PRO/ObsRO), thermal videography and physician assessments of AD will be assessed in a well-controlled observational methodology study that has both an in-patient and out-patient portions within the study.

This study evaluates the influence of different triggers on atopic dermatitis manifestation in children under 3 years old.

This is a multi-center, expanded access protocol to provide access to the investigational product, abrocitinib, to adolescent and adult patients with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis who have inadequate treatment options with available and approved medicated topical and systemic therapies and who are otherwise ineligible for participation in clinical studies with abrocitinib.

Primary objective: To explore and quantify the association between nighttime scratching and sleep patterns objectively in pediatric participants with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis (AD) using an innovative Emerald touchless sensor. Secondary objective: To evaluate the feasibility of using the Emerald touchless sensor in a pediatric clinical trial setting.

This Patient Forward study intends to conduct research to investigate potential genetic factors causing cancer and eczema/atopic dermatitis. The study utilizes a patient-centered design and is led by a collaborative team including The Manton Center for Orphan Disease Research, Inspire, Citizen Genetics and Pfizer. The Manton Center for Orphan Disease Research, a research program at Boston Children's Hospital that focuses on determining the genetic causes of rare and undiagnosed disorders, will work collaboratively with Inspire (inspire.com), a patient-focused research platform and social network with millions of users, to identify and recruit patients and family members for this genetic research study. Participants for this study will be asked to provide health information through surveys, questionnaires and/or interviews, and to provide a genetic sample through a blood draw or saliva sample. The study intends to combine this information to learn more about the genetic drivers in cancer and eczema/atopic dermatitis.

The goal is this study is to evaluate how the skin surface lipid composition is correlated with overall sebum production, barrier function, and inflammatory disease status. We hypothesize that there will be differences in the skin surface composition among subjects of various groups: Young vs older healthy population Atopic dermatitis vs Acne vs Healthy controls Active smokers vs non-smoker controls

Aim of this study is to use the major allergen 1 of birch-tree pollen (Bet v 1, Betula verrucosa, synonymous Betula pendula), to investigate the contribution of immunoglobulin E (IgE)- versus non-IgE-mediated mechanisms to chronic skin inflammation in atopic dermatitis patients.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the bacterial strains that colonize children with atopic dermatitis. The investigators hypothesize that rectal cultures will be more sensitive than anterior nares cultures for detecting S. aureus colonization, and that strains of S. aureus colonizing patients with atopic dermatitis will be resistant to commonly used topical antibiotic ointments.

The purpose of this study is to look at how defects in the skin barrier and immune response affect risk for skin infections. Participants will be classified into 4 groups based on Atopic Dermatitis (AD)/Non-Atopic (NA) status and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) colonization (negative or positive): AD S. aureus negative AD S. aureus positive NA S. aureus negative and NA S. aureus positive.
