Trial Outcomes & Findings for U0289-405: An Open-Label, 12-Week Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of the Acne System (Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5%, Salicylic Acid 0.5%) in Subjects With Acne (NCT NCT01446237)

NCT ID: NCT01446237

Last Updated: 2017-05-25

Results Overview

The investigator assessed efficacy at Baseline (Day 1), Week 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 by lesion counts- IL (papules and pustules), NIL (open and closed comedones), and TL. The area considered for efficacy assessments was confined to the face. The area of the face to be examined extended from the hairline to the mandible; includes the forehead, cheeks, and chin; and excludes the mouth, nasal region, periocular area, and superior and inferior eyelids. Baseline was defined at Day 1. Change from Baseline is value at indicated time point minus the Baseline value. Mean percent change from baseline at each study visit was presented.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 1, 2, 4, 8, 12

Population: Intent-to-treat (ITT) population consisted of all participants that were enrolled in the study. Only those participants with data available at the indicated time points were analyzed.

The investigator assessed efficacy at Baseline (Day 1), Week 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 by lesion counts- IL (papules and pustules), NIL (open and closed comedones), and TL. The area considered for efficacy assessments was confined to the face. The area of the face to be examined extended from the hairline to the mandible; includes the forehead, cheeks, and chin; and excludes the mouth, nasal region, periocular area, and superior and inferior eyelids. Baseline was defined at Day 1. Change from Baseline is value at indicated time point minus the Baseline value. Mean percent change from baseline at each study visit was presented.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline (Day 1) and Week 1, 2, 4, 8, 12

Population: ITT population. Only those participants with data available at that particular time points were analyzed.

The investigator assessed efficacy at Baseline (Day 1), Week 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 by ISGA scale: 0- Clear (clear skin with IL or NIL), 1- Almost clear (Rare NIL with no more than rare papules), 2- Mild (greater than Grade 1, some NIL with no more than a few IL (papules/pustules only, no nodular lesions), 3- Moderate (greater than Grade 2, up to many NIL and may have some IL, but no more than one small nodular lesion), 4- Severe (greater than Grade 3, up to many NIL and IL, but no more than a few nodular lesions) and 5- Very severe (Many NIL and IL and more than a few nodular lesions. May have cystic lesions). Baseline was defined at Day 1. Change from Baseline is value at indicated time point minus the Baseline value.
