简要总结
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy profiles of Watson Laboratories, Inc.'s Pimecrolimus Cream, 1% to those of Valeant Pharmaceuticals North America LLC's Elidel® (pimecrolimus) Cream, 1%, and to demonstrate the superior efficacy of the two active creams over that of the placebo (Vehicle of test product), in the treatment of mild to moderate atopic dermatitis.
详细描述
Pimecrolimus cream, 1% is a calcineurin inhibitor immunosuppressant. Pimecrolimus inhibits T cell activation by blocking the transcription of early cytokines. Pimecrolimus cream, 1% is indicated as second-line therapy for the short-term and non-continuous chronic treatment of mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis in non-immunocompromised adults and children 2 years of age and older who have failed to respond adequately to other topical prescription treatments, or when those treatments are not advisable. This study is being conducted to evaluate the clinical bioequivalence of sponsor's formulation of Pimecrolimus Cream, 1%, the Test product, and Elidel Cream, 1%, the Reference product. A vehicle control arm is included to demonstrate that the Test and Reference products are active and to establish that the study is sufficiently sensitive to detect differences between products.

- •A diagnosis of atopic dermatitis for at least 3 months.
- •A baseline Investigator's Global Assessment (IGA) of disease severity of mild or moderate (score of 2 or 3).
- •An affected area of atopic dermatitis involvement of at least 5% of the body surface area (BSA) at Visit 2/Day 1 (Baseline), as defined by the criteria of Hanifin and Rajka (1980).
- •Treatment with a bland emollient for at least 7 days prior to Visit 2/Day 1 (Baseline).
- •Agree to adhere to protocol-specified requirements and concomitant therapy restrictions.
- •Willing to avoid constant sun exposure and the use of tanning booths or other UV light sources during participation in the study.
- •In general good health, non-immunocompromised, and free from any clinically significant disease, other than atopic dermatitis, that might interfere with the study evaluations.
- •Willing and able to understand and comply with the requirements of the study, apply the study medication as instructed, return for the required study visits, comply with therapy prohibitions, and complete the study.
- •Female subjects of childbearing potential (excluding women who are surgically sterilized [hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral ovariectomy] or have been postmenopausal for at least 1 year) must have a negative urine pregnancy test and must be willing to use a medically accepted method of contraception during the study.

Subjects entering the study who are on hormonal contraceptives must have been on the method for at least 90 days prior to the study and continue the method for the duration of the study. Subjects who had used hormonal contraception and stopped must have stopped no less than 90 days prior to Visit 1.
排除标准
- •Females who were pregnant, breastfeeding, intending to become pregnant during the study, or who did not agree to use an acceptable form of birth control during the study.
- •Active cutaneous bacterial or viral infection in any proposed treatment area at Visit 2/Baseline (e.g., clinically infected atopic dermatitis).
- •Sunburn, extensive scarring, or pigmented lesion(s) in any treatment area at Visit 2/Baseline that would interfere with the study evaluations.
- •History of confounding skin conditions, e.g., psoriasis, rosacea, erythroderma, or ichthyosis.
- •History or presence of Netherton's Syndrome, immunological deficiencies or diseases, HIV, diabetes, malignancy, serious active or recurrent infection, clinically significant severe renal insufficiency, or severe hepatic disorders.
- •Use of any treatment listed in Table 9.1 more recently than the indicated washout period prior to Visit 2/Baseline.
