Study Overview
Brief Summary
To determine and compare the safety and efficacy of permethrin foam 4% and permethrin foam 5% with that of vehicle in subjects with scabies.
Detailed Description
It is anticipated that a majority of subjects will require and receive a single treatment; however, those subjects not showing improvement at the follow-up visit 2 weeks after initial treatment will be treated a second time. Those subjects originally assigned to vehicle for the first treatment will receive a "re-treatment" with one of the active doses.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of Subjects Who Received a Single Treatment of the Assigned Test Article That Were Designated as "Treatment Success"
Time Frame: Day 28
The primary efficacy variable is "treatment success". In protocol v2.0, "treatment success" was defined as an Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) score of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear). In protocol v3.0, "treatment success" was defined as an "eradication of infestation": a) no burrows, b) a reduction in the Signs/Symptoms, and c) no evidence of a live mite on microscopy.
Secondary Outcomes
- Change in Disease-related Signs and Symptoms for Those Subjects Provided With Re-treatment at Day 14 Who Show Improvement in Their Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) Score at Day 28(Baseline, Day 14, 28, and 42)
- Number of Re-treated Subjects Designated as "Treatment Success"(Day 42)
- Number of Subjects Designated as "Treatment Success" Following One Treatment With an Active Dose(Day 28 and Day 42)
