About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Vehicle-Controlled, Parallel-Group Clinical Trial to Demonstrate the Superiority of 0.3% and 1% OPA-15406 Ointment Versus Vehicle in Pediatric Subjects with Atopic Dermatitis

A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled, parallel group trial to demonstrate the superiority of 0.3% and 1% OPA-15406 ointment to vehicle in pediatric subjects with AD. This trial consists of the 0.3% OPA-15406 group, the 1% OPA-15406 group, and the vehicle group.

Read the detailed description
  1. Screening period is defined as the interval between the day of obtaining informed consent and the day of the baseline visit (0-30 days). The investigator performs a screening examination after obtaining informed consent from the subject's legal guardian (and, if possible, after obtaining consent from the subject).
  2. Assessment period (4 weeks double blind treatment period) is defined as the period between the day of baseline visit and the end of Week 4 visit (or the end of withdrawal visit). Subjects who meet the inclusion criteria and do not meet the exclusion criteria at the baseline visit will be assigned to receive 0.3% or 1% OPA-15406 ointment or comparator (vehicle [Placebo]). The allocated IMP will be administered to the treatment area from the day of baseline visit twice-daily for 4 weeks. After the baseline visit, examinations will be performed at Weeks 1, 2, and 4. If a subject discontinues the IMP administration between the day of baseline visit and the day of the Week 4 visit, a withdrawal visit will be performed for that subject.
  3. Trial period(4 weeks double blind Treatment) The trial period for an individual subject is the period from the day of obtaining the written informed consent from the subject's legal guardian to the day of the Week 4 visit or withdrawal visit. For subjects who miss the Week 4 visit or withdrawal visit, the termination date, will be the date, as determined by the investigator, when the subject is withdrawn from the trial. The trial period does not include a follow-up period for AE.
  4. 24 weeks, Open label, long term treatment period To be eligible for long term treatment, subjects must complete the randomized, double-blind treatment. Subjects must be judged by their investigators to have the potential for clinical benefit by longer-term exposure to OPA-15406, they can continue to receive 0.3% or 1% OPA-15406 open treatment for up to 24 weeks based on the inform consent of the subjects.

What is being measured

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

  1. Success rate in Investigator's Global Assessment at Week 4

    Investigator's Global Assessment measures the severity of atopic dermatitis (0 = Clear; 1 = Almost clear; 2 = Mild disease; 3 = Moderate disease; 4 = Severe disease/Very severe disease) of clinical characteristics (erythema, infiltration, papulation, oozing, and crusting). A higher score represents a severer clinical impression on the patient's severity based on investigator/clinician's judgment.

    The efficacy is assessed by percentage of subjects with Investigator's Global Assessment score of 0 or 1 with improvement by at least 2 grades from baseline. Subjects with missing Investigator's Global Assessmen data will be handled as non-responders.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 0.3% OPA-15406 Ointment and 1% OPA-15406 Ointment in people with Atopic Dermatitis (AD), run by Otsuka Beijing Research Institute at 1 site in China.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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 25 Mar 2025. 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 China. 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 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?

Success rate in Investigator's Global Assessment at Week 4 (time frame: 4 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 25 Mar 2025.
