About this trial

Atopic dermatitis is a common multifactorial skin disease. Topicals are the mainstay of treatment, but adherence to topicals is often abysmal, possibly worsened by the complexity of recommended treatment algorithms. Giving patients a simple, one drug approach may be advantageous.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patients ≥2 years of age

Patients with a current diagnosis of atopic dermatitis that is mild-to-moderate in severity and in ≥2 body areas

Patients with up to 20% total body surface area involvement

Women of childbearing age taking/using a contraceptive

Disqualifiers

Patients without a current diagnosis of atopic dermatitis

Patients who are prescribed changing systemic medications or treatments (phototherapy, biologics) for atopic dermatitis

Patients who would require use of other topical medications for other diagnoses (tretinoin, clindamycin)

Patients with areas of skin with active infection

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Adherence percentage

Percentage of expected study medication applications completed during the 8-week treatment period, based on study-collected medication-use data.

Time frame
Week 8

Secondary outcomes

1

Adult Dermatology Life Quality Index (DQLI) scores

Total scores range from 0 to 30. The higher the score, the more significantly the skin disease impairs the patient's quality of life

Time frame
Weeks 4 and 8
2

Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) scores

The total score ranges from 0 to 30. Higher scores indicate a greater impairment in the child's quality of life

Time frame
Weeks 4 and 8
3

Patient Oriented Eczema Measure (POEM) scores

The maximum total score is 28 - Higher scores indicate more severe eczema

Time frame
Weeks 4 and 8
4
