A Pilot Cohort Study of Risk Factors and Novel Methods of Skin Lesion Assessments in Adults With Atopic Dermatitis, Alopecia Areata, Psoriasis or Vitiligo
Study Purpose
The objective of the study is to explore various clinical and biochemical parameters and their potential associations with disease severity, activity, and prognosis in atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, alopecia areata, and vitiligo. Further, the study aims at validating remote assessments of skin lesions, using smartphone-acquired photos. The study will also assess the feasibility and compliance with weekly remote-assessments and patient-reported data collection over the full study period of one year. The study will observe patients through a period of one year and will provide detailed information concerning the type and dose of medication used, as well as data to evaluate the disease activity with high resolution during this period. The study will involve collection of serum samples for exploratory biomarkers, and punch biopsies. A total of approximately 370 patients, divided into the four disease areas of atopic dermatitis, alopecia areata, psoriasis, and vitiligo, will be enrolled in the study. Using a combination of self-reported and on-site assessments and procedures, the intent is to observe the natural history of patients with select dermatological conditions, investigate tissue characteristics associated with disease activity and symptoms, and evaluate the validity of remote assessment of lesions, and feasibility of weekly self-acquired smart-phone images of skin lesions for remote assessment.

Study Type
An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies. |

Trial ID:
This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries. |
NCT06319781 |

Phase
Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use. |
