Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 May 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a prospective, open label, uncontrolled study which will be performed in multiple Primary Care (GP) centres, in approximately 60 children (aged 1 year to 15 years) who have moderate atopic eczema and who are not currently using oral or topical corticosteroids or immunomodulators and have not used them in the previous month. Study patients will be asked to use Adex Gel three times daily, for 4 weeks instead of their usual emollient or as the first treatment for their condition, and without supplementary use of any oral or topical steroids or immunomodulators (unless this becomes unavoidable, see section 4.6.3). The Scoring Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) assessment will be performed by the investigator/ research nurse at baseline and then after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment. Patients or their parents/ guardians will be asked to complete the quality-of-life questionnaires (Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) at baseline and after 4 weeks of treatment. Photographs, which will not include any identifiable features or details of the patient, of one eczema affected area will also be taken at baseline and again 4 weeks after treatment.
