Participant Flow

Subjects were enrolled in the study after signing informed consent and meeting inclusion/exclusion criteria per protocol. A Washout period of 2-3 weeks was initiated for subjects discontinuing topical acne or systemic acne treatment respectively to normalize by washing their face twice a day with the study facial cleansing soap.

Measure
Vehicle
Subjects will be treated with once daily vehicle and will attend screening, randomization, 2,4,8 and 12 week visits. The following will be assessed: 1. Lesions will be counted and right, left and forward facing photographs will be taken 2. Investigator Global Assessment 3. Acne Quality of Life Questionnaire 4. Treatment Area Assessment by Investigator Vehicle: Subjects will be instructed to apply a thin layer of the product to the entire face every evening after washing with Cetaphil cleanser and gently patting the skin dry. Product should not be applied around the eyes or near the mucous membranes. No other acne treatments will be applied to the face during study participation. Hands should be washed following application of study gel.

Timeframe: Baseline until 12 weeks

Population: The average self-perception score for NAG users increased from 4.1 to 5.0.

Change in Self Perception scores with daily use of NAG compared with vehicle after 12-weeks. The Acne Quality of Life (QoL) Questionnaire Form was used to determine the practical improvements in quality of life. The Acne-QoL form is a validated measure that contains 19 questions referring to the past week, organized into four area: self-perception, role-social, role-emotional, and acne symptoms. Each question gauges how much acne affects the subject, with answers ranging from 0 (extremely) to 6 (not at all). Domain scores are calculated by taking the average scores within each domain, with high scores reflecting better QoL determination. The number of subjects with a negative score for each quality of life region was determined at each time-point. Those with a negative score, were those with a score of 3.5 or less, indicating that the disease was having a meaningful effect on their lives.
