This trial tests a new injectable medicine called FB825 for people with moderate to severe eczema that hasn't improved enough with standard creams. The study aims to see if FB825 can reduce itching and skin symptoms safely.
This study tests whether removing a type of bacteria (staph) from the skin can reduce the severity of atopic dermatitis (eczema). It may help people with moderate to severe eczema who have not used certain treatments recently.
This study tests a probiotic ointment for children aged 6 months to 15 years with mild-to-moderate eczema (measured by a skin score of 15–50). It aims to see if the cream is safe and helps improve their skin.
This trial tests a new dermocosmetic cream for children with eczema. It looks at how well the cream works and how gentle it is on the skin, after the child uses a prescribed steroid cream to calm a flare-up.
This trial tests whether a cosmetic cream can reduce eczema flare-ups and is comfortable/safe to use on very dry, irritated, eczema-prone skin. It’s mainly for children who have had recent flare-ups and moderate eczema severity.
This trial tests whether a new cream (FilmoCream) plus steroid ointment works better than steroid ointment alone for mild-to-moderate eczema. You must have two separate eczema patches that need steroid treatment.
