May 5, 2014 updated by: Taro Pharmaceuticals USA

Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multiple-Site, Parallel Design Study to Evaluate the Clinical Equivalence of Two Naftifine HCl 1% Creams in Patients With Interdigital Tinea Pedis.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the test formulation of Naftifine HCl Cream 1% (Taro Pharmaceuticals Inc.) as compared to the already marketed formulation Naftin® (Naftifine HCl) 1% Cream (Merz Pharmaceuticals) and placebo in patients with tinea pedis and to show the superiority of the active treatments over placebo when dosed once a day for 28 days.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or non-pregnant, non-lactating females 18 years of age or older.
  • Signed informed consent form, which meets all criteria of current FDA regulations.
  • If female and of child-bearing potential, have a negative urine pregnancy test at baseline visit, and prepare to abstain from sexual intercourse or use a reliable method of contraception during the study.
  • A total score of at least 4 for the clinical signs and symptoms of tinea pedis for the target lesion. In addition, the most infected area must have a minimum score of at least 2 for erythema and a minimum score of at least 2 for scaling.
  • A confirmed clinical diagnosis of tinea pedis with lesions localized to the interdigital spaces or predominantly interdigital, but may extend to other areas of the foot.
  • The presence of tinea pedis infection, confirmed by the observation of segmented fungal hyphae during a microscopic 10% potassium hydroxide wet mount examination.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Females who are pregnant, lactating or likely to become pregnant during the study.
  • Use of antipruritics, including antihistamines within 72 hours prior to baseline visit.
  • Use of topical corticosteroids, antibiotics or antifungal therapies within 2 weeks prior to baseline visit.
  • Use of systemic corticosteroids, antibiotics or antifungal therapies within 1 month prior to baseline visit.
  • Use of oral terbinafine or itraconazole within 2 months prior to baseline visit.
  • Use of immunosuppressive medication or radiation therapy within 3 months prior to baseline visit.
  • Any known hypersensitivity to Naftifine HCl, any component of the formulation or other antifungal agents.
  • Confluent, diffuse moccasin-type tinea pedis of the entire plantar surface.
  • Significant history or current evidence of chronic infectious disease, system disorder, organ disorder, or other medical condition that would place the patient at undue risk by participation or could jeopardize the integrity of the study evaluations.
  • Evidence of any concurrent dermatophytic infection of the toe nails or dermatological condition of the foot that may interfere with the evaluation of tinea pedis.
  • Patients with a past history of tinea pedis infections with a lack of response to antifungal therapy.
  • Patients who would be non-compliant with the requirements of the study protocol.
  • Participation in a research study within 30 days prior to baseline visit.
  • Employees or family members of employees of the research center or investigator.
  • Previous participation in this study.

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date.
