Fase III, randomizzato, in doppio cieco, controllato con placebo, studio multicentrico di nuovi progestinici antiandrogenici + estrogeni a basso dosaggio per un'acne vulgaris moderata (PANDORA)

23 ottobre 2026 aggiornato da: Eurofarma Laboratorios S.A.

Studio multicentrico di superiorità di fase III, randomizzato, in doppio cieco, controllato con placebo, adattivo, per confrontare l'efficacia e la sicurezza di una nuova concentrazione di un progestinen antiandrogenico combinato con un estrogeno a dosi ridotta per il trattamento di un'acne vulgaris moderata

This Phase III randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, adaptive, multicenter study evaluates the efficacy and safety of a new concentration of the fixed-dose combination EF190 in women with moderate acne vulgaris over six 28-day treatment cycles. Eligible participants will be randomized (2:1) to receive either the experimental drug or placebo alongside standard skincare. The study includes five in-person visits (screening, randomization, and three follow-ups) and three phone contacts (cycles 2, 4, and 5) to monitor adherence, adverse events, and contraceptive use. A subgroup will undergo additional exploratory assessments, including acne questionnaires, ovarian activity tests, photographic documentation, and specialized lab/ultrasound exams.

Descrizione dettagliata

This is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, adaptive, multicenter superiority study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new concentration of the fixed-dose combination EF190 in women with moderate acne vulgaris after six treatment cycles. Eligible participants will be randomized into a controlled, double-blind treatment period, receiving either the experimental drug or placebo, along with standard skin care, for six 28-day cycles.

Throughout the study, each participant must attend at least five (05) in-person clinic visits at the research center. At the screening visit (VS/V1), the participant will sign the Informed Consent Form (ICF) and the Assent Form (AF), undergo eligibility assessment, and have blood drawn. At the randomization visit (VR/V2), eligibility will be confirmed, baseline acne data (lesions and score) will be recorded, randomization (2:1 for treatment/placebo) will occur, and the study medication will be dispensed. The first dose (Day 1) will be administered on the 28th day post-menstruation. Subsequent visits (V3-V5/VF) will take place on day 15 (±3) of each cycle. The final visit (V5/VF) will assess the study's primary endpoint.

In addition to in-person visits, participants will have three (3) phone contacts, scheduled between clinic visits during cycles 2, 4, and 5. These calls aim to reinforce treatment adherence, collect information on adverse events and concomitant medications, assess discontinuation criteria, and remind participants about the use of study-permitted contraceptive methods.

Furthermore, a subgroup of participants will be selected for exploratory evaluations. These participants will complete acne control questionnaires, undergo ovarian activity assessments, have photographic documentation for acne evaluation, and receive specified laboratory and ultrasound tests as per the protocol and ICF/AF.

Misure di risultato primarie

Misura del risultato
Misura Descrizione
Lasso di tempo
Absolute reduction from baseline in the number of inflammatory acne lesions assessed at Cycle 6.
Lasso di tempo: 24 weeks

Inflammatory lesion refears to open and closed comedones, papules, pustules, and nodules
24 weeks
Absolute reduction from baseline in the total number of acne lesions assessed at Cycle 6.
Lasso di tempo: 24 weeks

Acne lesions refears to open comedones, closed comedones, papules, pustules, and nodules.
24 weeks
Change from Baseline of participants with scores 0 or 1 in the Static Investigator Global Assessment (ISGA) at cycle 6.
Lasso di tempo: 24 weeks

0 corresponds to "normal, clear skin with no evidence of acne vulgaris.";

1 corresponds to "skin is almost clear: few non-inflammatory lesions present, with rare non-inflamed papules (papules must be resolving and may be hyperpigmented, though not pink-red). No nodular lesions are present."; 5 indicates "numerous highly inflammatory lesions predominate, with a variable number of comedones, many papules and pustules, or nodular lesions."
24 weeks

Misure di risultato secondarie

Misura Descrizione
Lasso di tempo
Change from Baseline in the inflammatory lesion count at cycle 3.
Lasso di tempo: 14 weeks

Inflammatory lesion refears to open and closed comedones, papules, pustules, and nodules
14 weeks
Change from Baseline in the percentage of participants with scores 0 or 1 in the Static Investigator Global Assessment (ISGA) at cycle 3.
Lasso di tempo: 14 weeks

0 corresponds to "normal, clear skin with no evidence of acne vulgaris.";

1 corresponds to "skin is almost clear: few non-inflammatory lesions present, with rare non-inflamed papules (papules must be resolving and may be hyperpigmented, though not pink-red). No nodular lesions are present."; 5 indicates "numerous highly inflammatory lesions predominate, with a variable number of comedones, many papules and pustules, or nodular lesions."
14 weeks
Absolute change from Baseline in the Acne-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (Acne-QoL) at cycle 3 and cycle 6.
Lasso di tempo: 14 and 28 weeks

The questionnaire has four (4) domains: Self perception (score range, 0 - 30), Role-Social (0 - 24), Role-emotional (0 - 30), and Acne Symptons (0 - 30). Overall, tem sum for all domains scores range from 0 to 114.

Each domain scores responses are numbered starting with '0' in ascending order (ie. extremely=0, very much=1, quite a bit=2, a good bit=3, somewhat=4, a little bit=5, not at all=6). Higher scores for each domain in Acne-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (Acne-QoL) reflect increased health related quality of life, ie. less negative self perception, social, emotional and symptomatic effects associated with acne.
