Trial Outcomes & Findings for PHNA, Efficacy of Tretinoin Cream on Post-phototherapy Hyperpigmentation (NCT NCT03933774)

NCT ID: NCT03933774

Last Updated: 2020-08-18

Results Overview

The degree of hyperpigmentation will be assessed as L\* value of Lab color space(L stands for lightness, scale from 0 to 100) using spectrophotometer at 12 weeks The higher score means the skin is lighter which means a better outcome.

Measure
Left Tretinoin 0.05% Cream, Right Placebo
n=12 Participants
The left/right sides of the face were randomly allocated to receive either topical tretinoin 0.05% (w/v) cream or moisturizer twice daily. Tretinoin 0.05% cream (Stieva-A Cream 0.05%, 25g, GSK) was applied on the half side of the face of the patients for 1 month, once a day every night.
Left Placebo, Right Tretinoin 0.05% Cream
