What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of the anti-acne efficacy 1 (number of the retentional and inflammatory lesions)

    Change in the number of the retentional (open \& closed comedones) and inflammatory lesions (papulae, pustulae \& nodules (if applicable)) on face after a 12-week application period At Week 0 (before any application) and Week 12 (after a 12-week application period), a counting of the retentional (open \& closed comedones) and inflammatory lesions (papulae, pustulae \& nodules (if applicable)) will be performed by a Dermatologist.

    The counting will be broken down on several parts of the face (forehead, left and right cheeks and chin).

    Measured: Week 0 (baseline) and Week 12 (final time point)

Secondary outcomes (22)
  1. Evaluation of the anti-acne efficacy 2 (number of the retentional and inflammatory lesions)

    Change in the number of the retentional (open \& closed comedones) and inflammatory lesions (papulae, pustulae \& nodules (if applicable)) on face after 4 and 8-week application period At Week 4 (after a 4-week application) and Week 8 (after a 8-week application period), a counting of the retentional (open \& closed comedones) and inflammatory lesions (papulae, pustulae \& nodules (if applicable)) will be performed by a Dermatologist.

    The counting will be broken down on several parts of the face (forehead, left and right cheeks and chin).

    Measured: Week 4 and Week 8 (intermediary times point)

  2. Change in the acne stage on face according to the Global Acne Evaluation scale after 4, 8 and 12-week application period

    At Week 0 (before any application), Week 4 (after a 4-week application period), Week 8 (after an 8-week application period) and Week 12 (after a 12-week application period), determination of the acne stage will be performed by the Dermatologist according to the Global Acne Evaluation scale (score min:0 to score max:5). More the score decreased, more the treatment is efficient.

    Measured: Week 0 (baseline), Week 4 and Week 8 (intermediary times point) and Week 12 (final time point)

  3. Change in the residual marks visibility after 4, 8 and 12-week application period

    At Week 0 (before any application), Week 4 (after a 4-week application period), Week 8 (after an 8-week application period) and Week 12 (after a 12-week application period), the residual marks visibility of acne (hyperpigmentation) will be assessed under the same conditions by the Dermatologist using the scale below which include 10 grades (0: absence to 9:numerous). More the score decreased, more the treatment is efficient.

    Measured: Week 0 (baseline), Week 4 and Week 8 (intermediary times point) and Week 12 (final time point)

More the score decreased, more the treatment is efficient.

    Measured: Week 0 (baseline), Week 4 and Week 8 (intermediary times point) and Week 12 (final time point)

  5. Change in the skin shininess after 4, 8 and 12-week application period

    At Week 0 (before any application), Week 4 (after a 4-week application period), Week 8 (after an 8-week application period) and Week 12 (after a 12-week application period), the skin shininess will be assessed under the same conditions by the Dermatologist using the scale below which include 10 grades (0: absence to 9:high). More the score decreased, more the treatment is efficient.

    Measured: Week 0 (baseline), Week 4 and Week 8 (intermediary times point) and Week 12 (final time point)

  6. Change in skin greasiness after 4, 8 and 12-week application period

    Skin microbiota sample will be collected on one test site of 4 cm2 on the middle of the left cheek and using aseptic techniques under sterile airflow generated by a portable hood.

    According to the results of the primary variable, the Sponsor will decide to go ahead with the microbiota analysis which will be done by INRA Transfert.

    DNA will be extracted from the swabs. PCR amplification will be performed for each DNA sample. DNA will be PCR amplified. Cleaned pools will be sequenced on the Illumina MiSeq platform.

    Sequences will be then de-replicated and a database containing one sequence for each operational taxonomic unit will be generated.

    Interpretation of these results will be done by Mercurialis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Epiduo, Salicylic Acid and Hydréane légère in people with Acne, run by Vichy Laboratoires 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 10 inclusion and 20 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 18 Oct 2021. 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

Evaluation of the anti-acne efficacy 1 (number of the retentional and inflammatory lesions) (time frame: Week 0 (baseline) and Week 12 (final time point)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03832647, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 18 Oct 2021.
