Active clinical trials for "Skin Diseases"

This is a parallel-group, randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, Phase 4 trial comparing three creams in the treatment of impetiginous eczema: Arm A: QUADRIDERME® cream (betamethasone diproprionate, clotrimazole, and gentamicin sulfate) Arm B: Combination of betamethasone diproprionate cream and gentamicin sulfate cream Arm C: Betamethasone diproprionate cream At 7 sites, in Portugal, a total of 207 subjects will be randomized using a 1:1:1 randomization ratio to receive one of the three possible treatments for a maximum period of 28 days or until 5 days after total remission of the signs and symptoms, but never more than 28 days. Assessments will be made of level of improvement of the target area in each treatment group, number of days for total remission, and safety profile. Note: This study was terminated early due to lack of recruitment (only 3 of the 207 planned participants were enrolled). Statistical analyses were not performed. Further, 7 sites were planned, but only 4 sites were approved out of which 3 sites were initiated.

The purpose of this investigation is to study the effectiveness of longer wavelength UVA1 (340-400nm) or shorter wavelength ultraviolet B [UVB] (290-320nm) irradiation in the treatment of inflammatory skin conditions (such as: atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, mycosis fungoides, alopecia areata, stretch marks and urticaria). This research study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an investigational device which is similar in appearance to a "tanning bed" but which emits ultraviolet irradiation of a specific wavelength known as UVA1. This device has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for general use in this country, as of yet, but it has been used quite successfully in Europe for several years in treating such conditions as scleroderma, atopic dermatitis, urticaria pigmentosa and other skin conditions. Instead of UVA1 therapy, patients may receive ultraviolet radiation of a specific wavelength known as UVB. UVA1 light is a longer wavelength and therefore a lower energy wavelength than UVB. UVB light is often the light associated with getting a sunburn since it has a higher level of energy. UVB light has been used successfully in the treatment of many skin conditions.

To assess Hibiscus sabdariffa extract and collagen products on skin condition improvement

This randomized, intra-patient comparative study is designed to investigate the combination regimen of 5-fluorouracil cream (5FU) and Photodynamic Therapy (PDT), versus PDT alone, for its ability to generate significantly elevated levels of the target photosensitizer, protoporphyrin IX (PpIX), in lesions of actinic keratoses (AKs) and to more effectively treat and prevent recurrence of AKs. The target population comprises patients with solid organ transplants (renal, hepatic), as well as normal (immunocompetent) subjects to control for possible influences of immunosuppression.

To assess melon and oil olive pressed candy on skin condition improvement

Study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of JTE-051 administered for 12 weeks in subjects with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of daptomycin compared to vancomycin or teicoplanin for the treatment of complicated skin and soft tissue infections

This study evaluates the use of an oral supplement to see if it can shift the function of the skin and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, its impact on biomarkers associated with aging, and its impact on mental health.

To assess VeCollal formula on skin condition improvement
