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

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

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.
  • Phase 2

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

12 years to 16 years (Child)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

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
Time Frame
Change in incidence and severity of application site adverse events
Time Frame: screening, weeks 0,2,4 and 8
screening, weeks 0,2,4 and 8
Change in incidence and severity of all AEs and their relationship to study drug
Time Frame: screening, weeks 0,2,4 and 8
screening, weeks 0,2,4 and 8
Changes from baseline (pre-dose, Day 1) in safety laboratory parameters
Time Frame: week 8
week 8
Changes from baseline (pre-dose, Day 1) in calcium homeostasis parameters (total serum calcium and albumin-corrected calcium levels, plasma parathyroid hormone (PTH), and serum alkaline phosphatase)
Time Frame: week 8
week 8
Determination of plasma concentrations of Pefcalcitol and its metabolites
Time Frame: Day 1 and Day 15
Day 1 and Day 15

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.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Proportion of subjects with an IGA score of absence (0) or very mild (1) with a minimum of a 2-grade improvement from baseline
Time Frame: week 8
week 8
Proportion of subjects who achieved an mPASI 75 from baseline (Week 0) to Week 8, or who achieved an mPASI 50 and a 5-point improvement in the CDLQI from baseline
Time Frame: week 8
week 8
Proportion of subjects who achieved success in each of the three individual components of the mPASI (scaling, thickness and erythema) from baseline
Time Frame: week 8
week 8
Proportion of subjects who achieved a 5-point improvement in the CDLQI from baseline
Time Frame: week 8
week 8

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

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. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
