About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-controlled Trial of Antroquinonol in Patients With Atopic Dermatitis

This is a multi-centers, phase IIa, double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of Antroquinonol in patients with atopic dermatitis.Duration of treatment is 12 week in total. Study visits will occur every 4 weeks. AEs/SAEs, changes to concomitant medications will be noted, vital signs will be taken, and efficacy evaluations will be performed as well. The last estimation of variable scores will occur for all subjects.

This is a multi-centers, phase IIa, double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of Antroquinonol in patients with atopic dermatitis.Duration of treatment is 12 week in total. Study visits will occur every 4 weeks. During these visits study drug will be administered at the site, new AEs/SAEs as well as follow-up for AEs and SAEs that have not been resolved will be recorded, changes to concomitant medications will be noted, vital signs will be taken, and efficacy evaluations will be performed as well. The study includes collection of cytokines samples. The end-of-treatment visit and the last estimation of variable scores will occur at week 13 (visit 5) for all subjects. The final visit will be at week 15 (visit 6). Subjects will be encouraged to complete all planned visits regardless of their adherence to study drug administration.

What is being measured

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

  1. EASI value

    Eczema Area and Severity Index: Each body region has potentially 100% involvement. Using the table below, give each respective body region a score of between 0 and 6 based on the percentage involvement. Precise measurements are not required.

    % involvement 0 1-9% 10 - 29% 30 - 49% 50 - 69% 70 - 89% 90 - 100% Region score 0 1 2 3 4 5 6

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. SCORAD

    Scoring Atopic Dermatitis which ranges from 0 to 103, with higher scores indicating more severe disease

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Antroquinonol in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by Golden Biotechnology Corporation at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 7 inclusion and 18 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 Aug 2019. 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 Taiwan. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

EASI value (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 Aug 2019.
