研究概览
简要总结
This study is to find a more effective treatment for itchy, painful or unsightly dermatofibromas, that will improve symptoms of itch and/or pain and/or improve the appearance of dermatofibromas. This is an open-label study where subjects will receive a laser treatment at week 0, and week 4, and then 2 additional follow-up visits. Photographs will be taken at each visit and rated by blinded reviewers after the study to determine efficacy.
详细描述
The main objective of this study is to find a more effective treatment for itchy, painful or unsightly dermatofibromas, that will improve symptoms of itch and/or pain and/or improve the appearance of dermatofibromas. A secondary objective of this study is to better understand the 1540 nanometer Erbium glass laser and its impact on the skin.
This is an open-label study where subjects will receive a laser treatment at week 0, and week 4, and then have 2 additional follow-up visits (no laser treatment at these visits). Photographs will be taken at each visit and photographs from pre-treatment and follow-up 1 (week 8) will rated by blinded reviewers after the study to determine efficacy.

盲法说明
Outcome assessors are masked and will not know which photos are pre-treatment or follow-up visit 1, however, they do know that all subjects received treatment at some point. They will rate the dermatofibromas to determine efficacy. However, there is only one arm of this study. All patients are receiving the same treatment. Outcomes assessors are the only masked roles.

结局指标
主要结局
Modified Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale Color Component Comparing Change From Baseline to Week 12.
时间窗: 12 weeks
Patient reported assessment scale of pain, itch, color, and texture. Each element (pain, itch, color, and texture) is graded on a 1-10 scale. The lowest score is '1', which corresponds to the situation of normal skin/no symptoms (i.e. not different in color, not different in texture, no itching, no pain). Score 10 equals the largest difference from normal skin (i.e. severely painful, severely itchy, vert different color, very different texture).
次要结局
- Modified Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale Itch Component Comparing Change From Baseline to Week 12.(12 Weeks)
- Modified Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale Texture Component Comparing Change From Baseline to Week 12.(12 Weeks)
- Modified Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale Pain Component Comparing Change From Baseline to Week 12.(12 weeks)
