Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Child
  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients who have been prescribed oral Medrol Tablets (4 or 16 mg) for treatment of contact dermatitis will be enrolled

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • To be eligible for enrollment in this study, patients must be prescribed oral Medrol tablets (4mg and 16 mg) for contact dermatitis as per the locally approved prescribing information
  • Medrol tablets, will be prescribed to the patient by the physician according to his/her usual practice. The decision to prescribe Medrol tablet will necessarily precede and will be independent of the decision to enroll patient into the study
  • Only those patients, who are ready to sign an informed consent, will be included in the study
  • Subject can be contacted through telephone

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who have any other dermatological or systemic condition that may interfere or confound with the study outcome measurements
  • Patients taking any oral steroid preparation or immunomodulators or have taken any such oral medication during last 15 days before enrollment. NSAIDs (Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agents) are excluded from the list
  • Any contraindication to Medrol tablet use. Contraindications of Medrol use are systemic fungal infections and known hypersensitivity to components
  • Participation in other studies within last 1 month before the current study begins and/or during study participation
  • Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the subject inappropriate for entry into this study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Treatment Status (Success/Failure) of Contact Dermatitis (CD) at the Second Follow-up Visit
Time Frame: Second follow-up visit (Day 5-28)
The signs and symptoms of CD were rated on Physician's Global Assessment (PGA) 5-point scale (range, 0 - 4 scale): 0 - no clinically relevant reaction; 1- macular erythema with induration; 2 - weak (non-vesicular) reaction with erythema, infiltration, and possible papules; 3 - strong (edematous or vesicular) reaction; 4 - extreme (spreading, bullous, ulcerative) reaction. "Success" was defined as a score of 0 or 1 and "failure" was defined as a score of 2, 3, or 4.
Second follow-up visit (Day 5-28)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
