About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Observational Pilot Study on the Use of Tadalafil Delivra Cream in the Treatment of Raynaud's Phenomenon and Pain Associated With Digital Ulcers

A 4-8 week observational feasibility study of the use of the use of Tadalafil-Delivra in the treatment of Reynaud's Phenomena (RP).

Read the detailed description

To determine if the feasibility of conducting a future RCT using the chosen outcome assessments in RP patients at 2 Rheumatology clinics.

Study Design:

Observation of patients prescribed Tadalafil-Delivra 2% (Tad-Del) for the treatment of RP with defined feasibility objectives and data collection through efficacy and safety assessments. Study objectives are:

  • At least 70% recruitment of eligible participants.
  • 100% data collection from at least 70% of all enrolled subjects.
  • Estimate the standard deviation(s) of all outcome assessments.

Setting/Participants:

Patients prescribed Tad-Del will be screened for study enrollment at 2 participating rheumatology clinics by the local research team. Participants that meet all the eligibility criteria will be enrolled in the study as subjects. Subjects will self-administer the medication as prescribed and return to the clinic for follow-up. Data will be collected on outcome assessments at: baseline, 1 week and at 4 to 8 weeks of treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. VAS-100 of DU & RP severity over the previous week assessed by patient & MD

    Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) of the severity of Digital Ulcers (DU) and Raynaud's Phenomenon (RP). The physician (MD) and patient will each independently make their own assessment on a linear 10 cm VAS scale by making a mark on the line with a pen anywhere from the left anchor "0" (indicating no disease at all) to the right anchor "10" (indicating the most severe imaginable). Both the MD and patient will complete an individual scale for RP and DU. The distance of the mark from the left anchor "0" will be recorded in mm, divided by 10 and reported as a value from 0 to 10. A total of 4 VAS scales will be completed.

    Measured: 28 days [this assessment has a window of an additional 28 days (Day 56) to be completed]

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in RP and DU interference in daily activities as measured by VAS-100 in SHAQ.

    Visual Analogue Scales for Raynaud's Phenomenon and Digital Ulcer interference in daily activities as measured by the patient. Both assessments are part of the Scleroderma Health Assessment Questionnaire (SHAQ). The patient will make an assessment on the linear VAS scale for each by making a mark on the line with a pen anywhere from the left anchor "Does not limit activities" to the right anchor "Very Severe limitation". The distance of the mark from the left to the right anchor will be measured in mm, divided by 10 and reported as a value from 0 to 10. There are two scales: 1 for Raynaud's Phenomena and the other for Digital Ulcer.

    Measured: 28 days [this assessment has a window of an additional 28 days (Day 56) to be completed]

  2. changes in the use of concurrent RP therapy and pain medications in patients treated with Tad-Del.

    Concomitant medication use at the end of treatment (day 28-56) will be compared with concomitant medication use at baseline with respect to daily dose administered.

    Measured: 28 days [this assessment has a window of an additional 28 days (Day 56) to be completed]

  3. All adverse Event experienced by the patient during study participation (1st to last visit) will be recorded.

    Adverse events will be summarized and reported at the end of treatment.

    Measured: 28 days [this assessment has a window of an additional 28 days (Day 56) to be completed]

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Raynaud Phenomenon, run by London Health Sciences Centre Research Institute OR Lawson Research Institute of St. Joseph's at 2 sites in Canada.

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 6 inclusion and 6 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

VAS-100 of DU & RP severity over the previous week assessed by patient & MD (time frame: 28 days [this assessment has a window of an additional 28 days (Day 56) to be completed]). 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 20 Sep 2018.
