About this study
Official title: Evaluation of Combination Therapy with Ofatumumab and Systemic Corticosteroids for Pemphigus: a Multi-center Cohort Study
A prospective cohort study was conducted, following patients for 36 weeks from January 1, 2023, to April 30, 2024. Patients meeting the diagnostic criteria were nonrandomly grouped based on screening results. The primary endpoints were time to disease control and skin healing. Secondary endpoints included complete remission rates, relapse rates, corticosteroid doses, pemphigus disease area index (PDAI), dermatology life quality index (DLQI), visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores, CD19+ B cell percentages, desmoglein-specific antibodies, and adverse events.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI)
Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI). PDAI activity score cutoffs were defined as 0 to 8 for mild, 9 to 24 for moderate, and 25 or higher for severe disease.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Pemphigus and Pemphigus Vulgaris (PV), run by Chao Ji 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 1 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 23 Oct 2024. 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. 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 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?
Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI) (time frame: 36 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 23 Oct 2024.
