The main objective is to compare efficacy, in terms of antifungal activity of Loceryl Nail Lacquer associated with a Cosmetic Varnish and Loceryl Nail Lacquer alone, in the treatment of mild to moderate toenail Distal Subungual Onychomycosis.
The second objective of this study will be photographic follow-up of clinical improvement and cure after the initial treatment period of 12 weeks, for 15 additional months.
Condition or disease | Intervention/treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
Foot Dermatoses | Drug: Loceryl NL + Cosmetic varnish Drug: Loceryl NL 12 weeks Drug: Loceryl NL 15 months | Phase 4 |
Study center:
A total of 50 subjects were to be included in 1 site in Iceland.
Methodology:
-
Group Loceryl Nail Lacquer+ Cosmetic Varnish:
- Loceryl Nail Lacquer to be applied once weekly for 12 weeks on all affected toenails,
- Cosmetic varnish to be applied once weekly for 12 weeks on all affected toenails and/or all toenails.
-
Group Loceryl Nail Lacquer alone:
- Loceryl Nail Lacquer to be applied once weekly for 12 weeks on all affected toenails.
- All eligible subejct with no clinical sign of clinical aggravation of Onychomycosis at week 12, could continue to apply Loceryl Nail Lacquer alone, once a week for 15 additional months (or less in case of complete cure).
Study Type : | Interventional (Clinical Trial) |
Actual Enrollment : | 50 participants |
Allocation: | Randomized |
Intervention Model: | Parallel Assignment |
Masking: | Single (Investigator) |
Masking Description: | Only 12 first weeks of treatment with Loceryl NL and/or Loceryl alone were investigator masked and randomized. 15 months of treatment with Loceryl NL alone had an open study design |
