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

12 years to 40 years (ADULT, CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for 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
Number of Participants With 0 to 4 Investigator's Global Assessment Score at Week 6
Time Frame: At Week 6
Severity of acne vulgaris was assessed by Investigator Global Assessment (IGA). The IGA score is a static evaluation of the overall severity or "average" degree of severity of a participant's disease by the Blinded Evaluator taking into account all of the participant's facial acne lesions as the participant appears on the day of the evaluation. Overall severity of acne was assessed using a five-point scale where 0=Clear, 1=Almost Clear, 2=Mild, 3=Moderate, and 4=Severe. Low score represented best outcome and higher score value indicated worst outcome.
At Week 6
Number of Participants Achieving Investigator's Global Assessments Treatment Success at Week 6
Time Frame: At Week 6
Severity of acne vulgaris was assessed by IGA. The IGA score is a static evaluation of the overall severity or "average" degree of severity of a participant's disease by the Blinded Evaluator taking into account all of the participant's facial acne lesions as the participant appears on the day of the evaluation. Overall severity of acne was assessed using a five-point scale where 0=Clear, 1=Almost Clear, 2=Mild, 3=Moderate, and 4=Severe. The IGA treatment "success" was defined as at least a two-point improvement in IGA score relative to Baseline.
At Week 6
Absolute Change From Baseline to Week 6 in Inflammatory Lesion Count
Time Frame: Day 1/ Baseline and Week 6
Inflammatory lesion count (ILC) included papules (raised inflammatory lesions with no visible purulent material) and pustules (raised inflammatory lesions with visible purulent material).
Day 1/ Baseline and Week 6
Percentage Change From Baseline to Week 6 in Inflammatory Lesion Count
Time Frame: Day 1/ Baseline and Week 6
The ILC included papules (raised inflammatory lesions with no visible purulent material) and pustules (raised inflammatory lesions with visible purulent material).
Day 1/ Baseline and Week 6
Absolute Change From Baseline to Week 6 in Non-Inflammatory Lesion Count
Time Frame: Day 1/ Baseline and Week 6
The non-inflammatory lesion count (NILC) included open and closed comedones.
Day 1/ Baseline and Week 6
Percentage Change From Baseline to Week 6 in Non-Inflammatory Lesion Count
Time Frame: Day 1/ Baseline and Week 6
The NILC included open and closed comedones.
Day 1/ Baseline and Week 6
Change in Sebum Percentage Relative to Baseline Versus Weeks 2, 4, 6 and 7
Time Frame: Day 1/Baseline and Weeks 2, 4, 6 and 7
Sebum measurement was conducted on the right and left side of the face. The sebum measurement represented the sebum score of saturation of the film and had a range of 0 to 99, where 99 equated to very oily skin.
Day 1/Baseline and Weeks 2, 4, 6 and 7
Change in Transepidermal Water Loss Relative to Baseline Versus Weeks 2, 4, 6 and 7
Time Frame: Day 1/Baseline and Weeks 2, 4, 6 and 7
Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL) was conducted on the right and left side of the face.
Day 1/Baseline and Weeks 2, 4, 6 and 7
Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events (TESAEs)
Time Frame: Day 1 until Week 7 (End of Study) and Unscheduled Visit
An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in participants, whether or not considered drug related.
Day 1 until Week 7 (End of Study) and Unscheduled Visit
Number of Participants Having Local Skin Reactions With Improved/Same Versus Worsened Severities Compared to Baseline
Time Frame: Day 1 until Week 7 (End of Study) or Unscheduled Visit
The local skin reactions (LSRs) included erythema, edema, scaling/dryness, burning/stinging, pruritus, erosion, and pain) were assessed. Erythema, edema, scaling/dryness, and erosion were assessed by the investigator and burning/stinging, pain, and pruritus were assessed by the participant. Assessments was made using a 4-point ordinal scale where 0=absent, 1=mild (slight, barely perceptible), 2=moderate (distinct presence), and 3=severe (marked, intense). Here, lower point represented no reaction and higher points represented severe reactions.The LSRs were assessed both before and 15 minutes following test article application.
Day 1 until Week 7 (End of Study) or Unscheduled Visit
