Active clinical trials for "Pemphigoid, Bullous"

The primary objective of this study is to describe and compare plasmatic anti-proteasome auto-antibody concentrations among three distinct groups: (1) patients suffering from bullous pemphigoide; (2) patients suffering from other dermatological auto-immune diseases; (3) an elderly control group.

The primary objective of this observational study is to describe the prevalence of pruritus and pemphigoid in nursing home patients. Secondary outcomes are the relationships of demographic factors and medical risk factors with pemphigoid, including dementia and neuropsychiatric symptoms, medication use and Karnofsky score.

Whereas pruritus is a major symptom in bullous pemphigoid, its characteristics and its impact on quality of life have been little studied. The objective of this study is to learn more about pruritus characteristics of patients with bullous pemphigoid, and in consequence to better understand the pathophysiology of pruritus, and then to better treat pruritus in this condition.

The objective of the program is to provide patients with Bullous Pemphigoid (BP), that participated in the R668-BP-1902 (NCT04206553) phase 2/3 study, dupilumab treatment and evaluate the long-term safety of dupilumab.

To investigate the effect of ocular surface reconstruction and assess the safety in cultivated oral mucosal epithelial cell sheet transplantation (COMET) regarding patients with cicatricial change of ocular surface.

Bullous pemphigoid is the most common subepidermal autoimmune blistering disease of the skin in European countries, including France. Immunologically, BP is characterized by the production of autoantibodies directed against two major components of the hemidesmosome, BP180 and BP230. The anti-BP180 autoantibody is detected in 79-93% of cases of bullous pemphigoid and its serum level at diagnosis have been correlated with disease activity. The anti-BP230 autoantibody is detected in 57%-63% of bullous pemphigoid cases and its score at diagnosis did not correlate with disease activity. Up to now, no clinical or immunologic factors have been identified to predict outcome of patients with good or poor prognosis bullous pemphigoid as defined by long complete remission off therapy and recurrent disease requiring maintenance therapy for years. The usefulness of BP180 or BP230 ELISA scores for monitoring BP patients during treatment also remains unclear.

Bullous pemphigoid affects mainly elderly patients. It is often associated with neurologic disorders, which represent a major risk factor of the disease

to compare efficacity and tolerance of two stratégies of dermoval application in treatment of bullous pemphigus.

The purpose of the study is to improve the quality of future clinical trials in bullous pemphigoid (BP), the investigators will monitor repeated measurement data from patients with BP on standard-of-care treatments at four week intervals for four months.

The study is an observational, multi-center, prospective, non-interventional and open-label data collection study assessing outcomes, treatment patterns, adverse events and costs in patients diagnosed with bullous pemphigoid. The patient enrollment period will be 1 year with a follow-up (observation period) of 1 year for each patient. Four dermatology centres in France will participate. The hypothesis to be answered by the study is that superpotent topical corticosteroid therapy is properly used to treat bullous pemphigoid in real-world life as recommended by French guidelines and whether this treatment influences the medical costs by comparison with systemic therapies (e.g. methotrexate or prednisone).
