Efficacy and Safety of Fucicort® Lipid Cream Compared to Combination Treatment With Fucidin® Cream Followed by Betamethasone (Lianbang Beisong®) Cream and Fucicort® Lipid Cream Vehicle in Clinically Infected Atopic Dermatitis/Eczema

February 21, 2025 updated by: LEO Pharma
The trial is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of Fucicort® Lipid cream with the combination treatment of Fucidin® cream followed by betamethasone (Lianbang Beisong®) cream, or Fucicort® Lipid cream vehicle, when applied twice daily for two weeks. The trial is designed to demonstrate that treatment with Fucicort® Lipid cream is not inferior to the combination treatment with the mono component drugs, Fucidin® cream followed by betamethasone (Lianbang Beisong®) cream and that treatment with Fucicort® Lipid cream is superior to the treatment with Fucicort® Lipid cream vehicle. This is a 3-arm, parallel group, active- and vehicle-controlled trial comparing the efficacy and safety after 14 days treatment of Fucicort® Lipid cream, to Fucidin® cream followed by betamethasone (Lianbang Beisong®) cream, or Fucicort® Lipid cream vehicle, in subjects with clinically infected AD/eczema.

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

2 years to 65 years (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
The percentage change in modified Eczema Area and Severity Index (m-EASI) on trunk and extremities at Day 15
Time Frame: from baseline to Day 15
The percentage change in modified Eczema Area and Severity Index (m-EASI) on trunk and extremities from baseline to Day 15. The m-EASI is a composite score evaluating the severity of 4 clinical signs (erythema, oedema/induration/papulation, excoriation, and lichenification) and the extent of the disease on each of 3 body regions (upper limbs, trunk, and lower limbs) by use of standard scales. The maximum total score is 64.8, with higher values indicating more severe and/or more extensive condition.
from baseline to 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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) at Day 15
Time Frame: at Day 15
The IGA of disease severity on the body (trunk and extremities, excluding the hands, head, and neck) will be assessed based on a visual evaluation by use of definitions of severity ranging from 0 (clear) to 5 (very severe).
at Day 15
Controlled disease according to IGA
Time Frame: at Day 15
Controlled disease according to IGA at Day 15, defined as subjects having at least 'moderate' disease at baseline achieving 'clear' or 'almost clear' disease severity or subjects having 'mild' disease at baseline achieving 'clear' according to IGA.
at Day 15
Proportion of patients with successful bacteriological response
Time Frame: at Day 15
Proportion of patients with successful bacteriological response, defined as pathogens present on target lesion at baseline and either: a) no pathogen present on target lesion at Day 15 ('confirmed eradication') or b) no swab taken at Day 15 as no lesion was evident ('presumptive eradication').
at Day 15
Adverse event (AE)/serious adverse event (SAE) frequency
Time Frame: baseline to Day 15 and 14±2 days follow up or until the final outcome is determined
Adverse event (AE)/serious adverse event (SAE) frequency by preferred term. Ongoing (serious or non-serious) AE with a possible, probable, or non-assessable relationship to the IMP at the last visit in the treatment phase. The investigator should follow up on the outcome for 14±2 days or until the final outcome is determined. This follow-up visit can be made either as a phone call or as a regular visit according to the investigator's discretion.
