Trial Outcomes & Findings for Pulsed Dye Laser Treatment and Oxymetazoline Hydrochloride (HCL) 1% Cream for Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea (NCT NCT04153188)

NCT ID: NCT04153188

Last Updated: 2022-03-31

Results Overview

CEA was graded by the investigator according to 5-point scale (0=Clear to 4=Severe) for each patient at the 6-month post-baseline visits. A higher score indicates worse outcome. The outcomes presented here are the mean CEA calculated for the 6-month post-baseline visit of each arm.

Participant Flow

Each subject was randomly assigned to receive either oxymetazoline therapy combined with three monthly 595-nm PDL treatments (Arm 1) or oxymetazoline therapy only (Arm 2). Accordingly, eighteen subjects were assigned to Arm 1 and sixteen subjects were assigned to Arm 2.

Four subjects dropped prior to 1 month post baseline visit (three subjects from Arm 2 and one subject from Arm 1). Therefore, thirty subjects are included in the analysis (17 subjects from Arm 1 and 13 subjects from Arm 2)

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6-month post-baseline

Population: Arm 1- Two subjects dropped before 2-month post-baseline visit and one subject dropped before the 6-month post baseline visit. Arm 2- One subject dropped before 2-month post-baseline visit and one subject dropped before the 6-month post baseline visit.

CEA was graded by the investigator according to 5-point scale (0=Clear to 4=Severe) for each patient at the 6-month post-baseline visits. A higher score indicates worse outcome. The outcomes presented here are the mean CEA calculated for the 6-month post-baseline visit of each arm.

Subject satisfaction is graded according to 5-point scale (0=Very Satisfied to 4=Very Dissatisfied). Lower score indicates higher satisfaction. A score of 0 or 1 indicates satisfaction with treatment outcome. The measurements reflect the percentage of subjects that were satisfied (graded 0 or 1) at the 6-month post-baseline visit

Timeframe: 1-, 2- and 3-month post-baseline

Population: Arm 1- Two subjects dropped before 2-month post-baseline visit. Therefore 17 subjects underwent the first treatment and 15 subjects underwent a second and third treatments.

A standard 10-centimeter visual analog scale from 0=No pain to 10=worst pain was used by subjects to report pain level associated with PDL treatment. A higher score indicates greater pain/discomfort with treatment. Mean of all pain associated scores obtained for all PDL treatments was calculated.
