What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Complete cure (negative KOH and culture and no signs or symptoms), Effective treatment (negative KOH and culture and at most mild erythema or scaling), Negative mycology (negative KOH and culture).

    Measured: 29 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Determine the clinical and mycological effect of 1% gaseous nitric oxide (gNO) as a treatment for Tinea Pedis in the clinically evaluable population at the Test-of-Cure (TOC) evaluation (4 weeks post-treatment) according to the definitions below:

    Measured: 29 days

  2. Determine the clinical and mycological effect of the topical application of 1% gNO as confirmed by pre treatment positive culture and clinical signs and symptoms compared to 2 weeks post treatment outcomes according to definitions below:

    Measured: 14 days

  3. Determine the clinical and mycological effect of the topical application of 1% gNO as confirmed by pre treatment positive culture and clinical signs and symptoms compared to 1 week post treatment outcomes according to definitions below:

    Measured: 7 days

  4. Determine the safety of daily topical applications of 1% gNO as confirmed by methemoglobin levels and adverse events.

    Measured: 29 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing 1% gaseous Nitric Oxide blended in Oxygen in people with Tinea Pedis, run by Nitric BioTherapeutics, Inc at 4 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Saint Kitts and Nevis, Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete cure (negative KOH and culture and no signs or symptoms), Effective treatment (negative KOH and culture and at most mild erythema or scaling), Negative mycology (negative KOH and culture). (time frame: 29 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Oct 2012.
