Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study evaluates the effect of the medical device "Excilor® Forte" in the treatment of toenail onychomycosis. Half of the participants will receive the tested product and the other half will receive a comparator (Amorolfin 5%). Patients will be followed during 6 months.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Subjects with a great toenail, affected by onychomycosis, were treated with the test medical device or reference product, respectively. After 180 days, blind assessment of the % of healthy surface (primary end point) of the great toenail was performed to compare the effect of both treatments, and to evaluate improvement versus baseline (day 0), respectively. Additionally, blind assessment of the percentage of healthy surface of the great toenail was performed at all other visits (D30, D60, D120) to evaluate changes from baseline between both treatment groups. For this purpose, digital macrophotographs were analysed by a blinded investigator using Adobe Photoshop software.
