7 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
To study the efficacy of topical eflornithine for pseudofolliculitis barbae from a quality of life standpoint and with objective physician-measured lesion counts. Our hypothesis is that the hair growth retardation that occurs with eflornithine will perhaps reduce the frequency over time that service members need to shave which could improve the formation of PFB lesions.
Comparing the amount of papules, macules, pustules, and irritation caused by pseudofolluculitis barbae in subjects using depilatory cream versus traditional shaving methods.
This will be a randomized investigator blinded study of 40 men age 20-60 (inclusive) with symptoms of mild-moderate PFB based on Investigator Global Assessment (IGA). Subjects will be divided into two groups: the Control group of 20 subjects and the Experimental group of 20 Subjects. Subjects will be seen at Screening/Baseline, and 6 weeks. All subjects will use their normal razors and shave products during the six week study. The Experimental group of subjects will also be given the study product Pre-Shave Gel and Cleansing Brush.
To report the safety and efficacy of 1064nm low fluence laser hair reduction for the treatment of pseudofolliculitis barbae
This trial is designed to gain insight into the mechanism of action of eflornithine hydrochloride in men and to aid in determining if this compound is deserving of further development for a pseudofolliculitis barbae indication. This study will also provide knowledge which will be useful in designing future PFB trials in this indication is pursued.
Demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the GentleMax Pro Plus™ laser system for its intended uses: hair removal including pseudofolliculitis barbae (PFB), clearance of pigmented and/or vascular lesions, temporary increase of clear nail in patients with onychomycosis and improvement in appearance of wrinkles. Evaluate GentleMax Pro Plus™ laser system for the clearance of acne.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the improvement in overall shave satisfaction, the appearance of skin irritation from shaving, and the razor related inflammation of the hair follicles when using a new razor technology in a regular shaving regimen as well as a new razor technology in a shaving regimen that includes a pre-shave gel, cleansing brush and shaving gel.
