About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Clinical Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of PG-011 Gel With 8 Weeks Treatment and Extension Safety Study to 52 Weeks in Adolescents and Adults With Atopic Dermatitis

This is a Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled seamless and adaptive-designed phase IIb/III study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of topical use of PG-011 Gel in adolescents and Adults With Atopic Dermatitis. It consists of phase IIb and phase III parts, phase IIb is a dose-ranging part and has been done, and phase III is a pivotal study part which is registered this time.

The goal of this phase III clinical trial is to learn if PG-011gel works to treat mild to moderate Atopic Dermatitis in adolescents and adults by topical use. It will also learn about the safety of PG-011gel. Investigators will compare PG-011gel to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if PG-011gel works to treat mild to moderate Atopic Dermatitis.

Participants will:

  • Use PG-011gel or a placebo twice daily for initial 8 weeks, and followed by using PG-011 gel for all of the participants till 52-week.
  • Visit the clinic at weeks 1, 2, 4 and 8 for checkups and tests, and followed by visiting the clinic every 4 weeks till 52-week.
  • Keep a diary of their symptoms.
Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial in adolescent and adult participants aged from 12 to 75 years old (including threshold) with mild to moderate Atopic Dermatitis. Approximately 472 participants will be randomized 3:1 to PG-011 gel 3% BID, or placebo gel. In addition, approximately 10% of the overall study population will consist of adolescents. Participants with AD involvement of 3% to 20% BSA and IGA score of 2 to 3 will receive blinded study treatment for 8 weeks followed by an open-label treatment for 44 weeks, at last the safety follow-up for 2 weeks.

The study is to evaluate the efficacy and long-term safety of PG-011 gel 3% in the treatment of mild to moderate Atopic Dermatitis and the PK characteristics by sparse sampling.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing PG-011Gel in people with Atopic Dermatitis, run by Prime Gene Therapeutics Co., Ltd. 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 6 inclusion and 14 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 May 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Xinghua Gao, Professor (+86-13940152467, barrygao@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of participants who achieved Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI 75) at Week 8 (time frame: 8-week). 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 May 2025.
