10 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Moxidectin is not approved to treat scabies in humans. The effective dose of moxidectin to treat scabies is not known. This study aims to assess the efficacy of a single administration of 8 mg, 16 mg, or 32 mg moxidectin per oral in achieving Scabies Complete Cure at Day 28. This study also aims to assess the safety of three strengths of single moxidectin doses in adults with scabies.
A population of approximately 50 pediatric subjects will be enrolled to assess the PK of spinosad and benzyl alcohol for 3 hours following a single, full-body topical application (open label) on a single in-clinic visit (Day 1, or Day 2 if screening only on Day 1). There will be approximately 50 subjects ages 1 month to 3 years 11 months of age enrolled with the goal of completing approximately 16 subjects. With assistance from a caregiver, Natroba will be applied over the entire body from the neck down to the toes (including the soles of the feet) and to the hairline, temples, forehead and possibly the scalp (if a scabies infestation is present on the scalp). The open-label Investigational Product (IP) will remain on the skin for at least 6 hours before removing the IP by gentle washing. The subjects will stay in the clinic until the 3-hour procedures are completed. Blood draws will be taken at 0 hours just prior to treatment, and then at 0.5 and 3.0 hours post-treatment. Heel sticks are likely to be the mode of blood collection for children less than 2 years of age. A ±5-minute time window will be allowed for all post-treatment blood samples. Removal of IP can occur by the caregiver at home after it has been on the skin for at least 6 hours before bathing the child. Safety will be assessed with adverse events (AEs), general skin and eye irritation assessments, and pre-dose and pre-discharge laboratory evaluations. Following the sample collections subjects will be released from the clinic and directed to their primary care physician for follow-up. Subjects will be provided scabies medications upon discharge to dispense to family members. These include 5% Permethrin for those in the household that are less than 4 years of age and Natroba for those in the household 4 years of age and older. Subjects who terminate early will not be given these medications to dispense to family members.
This phase III study was conducted to establish the clinical bioequivalence of Permethrin Cream 5% and Elimite™ in the treatment of scabies following a single application.
Study to Evaluate the Therapeutic Equivalence of Permethrin Cream 5%in the Treatment of Scabies.
This is a multi-center, double-blind, randomized, two arm parallel design study. This study is comprised of two phases: screening and treatment. The screening period will be up to 5 days, followed by the treatment phase of 28±4 days. During the treatment phase subjects will be randomized to receive either test or reference treatments in a double-blind manner in an outpatient setting. Randomization of subjects will be in a 1:1 ratio for the test and reference drug arms and will be stratified by site. Screening will begin at visit 1, during which eligibility will be determined and prohibited treatments will be discontinued. Randomization will occur following the confirmation of the eligibility criteria at visit 2 (baseline, Day 1) i.e. initiation of treatment phase. The treatment phase will be 28±4 days in duration wherein subject will receive treatment with investigational product (either test or reference) on Day 1 or Baseline (visit 2). Safety and tolerability assessments will be performed on Day 7 (visit 3). Efficacy, safety and tolerability will be assessed on Day 14 (visit 4) followed by the End of study visit on Day 28 (visit 5). If positive identification of scabies is confirmed at Day 14 (visit 4), the subject will be retreated with the second application of the investigational product.
Scabies is an infestation of the skin by the human itch mite (Sarcoptes scabiei). Diagnosis of scabies is made based on clinical symptoms, such as nocturnal itching, and appearance and distribution of the rash. Definitive diagnosis includes the microscopic identification of the mite, mite eggs, or mite fecal matter in the skin. Topical permethrin is considered the drug of choice for the treatment of scabies. It is a synthetic pyrethroid that is safe for use in adults and children 2 months and older. This study will evaluate the therapeutic equivalence of a generic permethrin cream 5% to Elimite® in the Treatment of Scabies.
To assess the safety and efficacy of Natroba (spinosad) topical suspension versus placebo for the clinical cure of scabies after a single treatment. The trial will also assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of spinosad and benzyl alcohol following a single dose of Natroba™ in pediatric subjects 4-16 years of age. These subjects will be a separate population of pediatric subjects.
To assess the safety and efficacy of Natroba (spinosad) topical suspension versus placebo for the complete cure of scabies after a single treatment.
To determine and compare the safety and efficacy of permethrin foam 4% and permethrin foam 5% with that of vehicle in subjects with scabies.
The main objective of this study is to identify unique DNA sequences within the genome of human scabies that can be utilized to identify the parasite through PCR.
