About this study

Official title: Phase 3 : Tacrolimus Ointment Interest (PROTOPIC ®) in the Maintenance Treatment of Severe Seborrheic Dermatitis on Adult Face

Seborrheic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory dermatological disease, evolving by relapses, affecting mainly the face and scalp. It would be important to have a maintenance treatment for severe forms of seborrheic dermatitis witch is both effective and relatively well tolerated to reduce the frequency of relapses, prolong remissions obtained after attack treatment and reduce the use of topical steroids.

What is being measured

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

  1. duration of the maintenance of complete or almost complete clinical remission

    The primary endpoint will be the duration of the maintenance of complete or almost complete clinical remission obtained after the initial treatment. This period is defined as the time from randomization to the first occurrence of relapse noted by the dermatologist.

    Measured: 18 months after inclusion (Visit (V) 4 last visit)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Tolerance of 2 treatments

    Tolerance of 2 treatments Mycoster (R) and Protocopic (R)

    Measured: between 10 days and 18 months after inclusion (V3 (Day (D)10 to D180)), 30 days after inclusion (Visit D30), after 90 days after inclusion (D90) and after 120 days after inclusion (D120) and 180 days after inclusion (Visit V4)

  2. Number of Relapses

    Number of Relapses requiring the resumption of topical corticosteroid treatment,

    Measured: 180 days after inclusion (Visit V4)

  3. Cumulative amount of corticosteroids applied

    Cumulative amount of corticosteroids applied by the patients during the study period to control their outbreaks

    Measured: between 10 days and 18 months after inclusion (V3 (D10 to D180)), 30 days after inclusion (Visit D30), after 90 days after inclusion (D90) and after 120 days after inclusion (D120) and 180 days after inclusion (Visit V4)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Protopic (R) and Mycoster (R) in people with Severe Seborrheic Dermatitis, run by University Hospital, Rouen at 1 site in France.

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 22 inclusion and 3 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 29 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

duration of the maintenance of complete or almost complete clinical remission (time frame: 18 months after inclusion (Visit (V) 4 last visit)). 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 29 May 2018.
