研究概览
简要总结
This study is to determine the effectiveness and safety of WR 279,396, a topical cream for the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis. This study is to be conducted with a placebo control under double-blind conditions in a local population group in Tunisia where leishmaniasis is endemic.
详细描述
WR 279,396 is a paromomycin-based topical cream that has shown some suggestion of being effective for the treatment of non-serious, non-complicated cutaneous leishmaniasis in previous clinical studies. The goal of this study is to expand those observations in a larger, more rigorous study to clearly define the efficacy of this product and collect information about adverse effects. Subjects will be randomized to receive either WR 279,396 or vehicle placebo; applied twice a day for 20 days.

结局指标
主要结局
Complete Clinical Response (CCR) of Lesion at Days 50, 100 and 180 (+7 Days)
时间窗: 180 days
CCR is defined as at least 50% reduction, from baseline, in index lesion area of ulceration at study days 50, 100 and 180 (+ 7 days). Randomized subjects were compared using the uncorrected Fisher's exact test. Confidence intervals (95%) were constructed on the difference between the two group proportions. The log-rank test was used to compare the time to complete re-epithelialization of the index lesion without relapse. Cure of all subjects lesions was also compared using the Fisher's exact test. To adjust for baseline differences in the treatment groups, a linear model for the proportion of subjects achieving CCR was fit for each baseline variable of interest with covariates for treatment group and the baseline variable. The Breslow-Day test was used to examine whether the effect of WR 279,396 varied between subgroups
Safety of WR 279,396 (AEs and SAEs)
时间窗: 180 days
Safety was evaluated on each day during daily administration of the topical products. Subjects were observed and questioned for the occurrence of solicited local side effects (eg, pain, erythema, edema) and solicited systemic side effects (eg, vertigo, tinnitus, diminished hearing). Non-solicited AE evaluations included spontaneous reports from subjects and clinical observations.
次要结局
- Time to Complete Re-epithelialization of the Index Lesion Ulcer Without Relapse(180 days)
- Final Cure Rate by Subject of All Lesions(180 days)
- Rate of Relapse(180 days)
