Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis With Different Orders of Application of Locoid Lotion and Hylatopic Plus Cream

April 11, 2017 updated by: Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai

Assessment of Application Order When Utilizing Locoid Lotion and Hylatopic Plus Cream in the Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability, as well as effectiveness, with regards to the order of application for Locoid Lipocream and Hylatopic Plus cream in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), which is a type of skin rash.Topical skin barrier repair therapies (BRT) that are plain moisturizing creams/lotions with added lipids (fats/oils), such as Hylatopic Plus cream, have emerged as an effective addition to the the treatment of atopic dermatitis. BRTs are often used along with topical steroids (medicated creams), such as Locoid lotion, on skin with AD, and as a monotherapy (single treatment) on both non-diseased and diseased skin. Since BRTs help to restore components of skin that are absent in skin with AD, it is believed that long-term BRT use may reduce further development of further AD. This is an open-label, single site study.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • subjects of at least 3 months of age.
  • clinical diagnosis of stable mild to moderate AD using the Hanifin and Rajka criteria for diagnosing AD
  • AD lesions of similar size and severity of bilateral anatomic location
  • a SPGA score of 2 or 3 and at least 10% BSA involvement at baseline
  • in good health, without evidence of disease process(es) that would present patient safety concerns or confounding factors for assessment of study objectives
  • able and willing to understand and sign an informed consent (or if applicable parent or legal guardian sign an informed consent),
  • able and willing to agree to requirements and restrictions of the study
  • Subjects who are willing to discontinue all systemic corticosteroids, immunomodulators, ultra violet light therapy or other medication (investigational or otherwise) that may have an effect on atopic dermatitis disease progression for 30 days prior to the baseline measurement.
  • Subjects on a stable maintenance therapy (at least 30 days of use prior to baseline) of antihistamines and/or nasal spray containing corticosteroids for the treatment of bronchial asthma or allergic rhinitis, and antibiotics for the treatment of acne will be allowed.
  • Subjects who are willing to discontinue use of topical treatments for AD including, but not limited to, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, vitamin D treatments, retinoids, topical antihistamines for at least 14 days prior to baseline

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline Treatment Success at Day 29
Time Frame: baseline and Day 29
Treatment Success defined as Clear or Almost Clear (0 or 1) on the 5 point static physician global assessment of psoriasis (SPGA) scale at day 29, evaluating non-inferiority of one group compared to the other using the lower limit of the confidence interval for the difference in success proportions, as compared to baseline.
baseline and Day 29

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline SPGA scale at Day 29
Time Frame: baseline and Day 29
2 point reduction of SPGA at day 29 as compared to baseline. The sPGA is a physician's global assessment of the participant's psoriasis based on severity of induration, scaling, and erythema. The sPGA of psoriasis comprises a 6-point scale ranging from 0 (clear) to 5 with increasing severity.
baseline and Day 29
Change from Baseline Pruritus at Day 29
Time Frame: baseline and Day 29
Change from baseline pruritus at day 29
baseline and Day 29
