Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: This explorative pilot trial will assess efficacy and safety of the new bifonazole liquid spray compared to placebo and the active comparator terbinafine film-forming solution (Lamisil Once®). Various endpoints will be assessed in order to select the most appropriate primary endpoint for a confirmatory trial.;Secondary Objective: n.a. This exploratory trial investigates a lot of single and composite efficacy parameters. Therefore, no primary and secondary endpoints are defined.;Primary end point(s): This exploratory trial investigates a set of single and composite efficacy parameters. Therefore, no primary and secondary endpoints are defined. The assessment of these exploratory efficacy variables will allow to identify the most appropriate parameters for the definition of primary and secondary endpoints for a confirmatory study. Exploratory efficacy parameters • Overall cure rate at end of weeks 1 (V4), 2 (V5) and 6 (V7); • Clinical cure rate at end of weeks 1 (V4), 2 (V5) and 6 (V7); • Mycological cure rate at end of weeks 1 (V4), 2 (V5) and 6 (V7); • Rate of negative cultures at end of weeks 1 (V4), 2 (5) and 6 (V7); • Rate of microscopy negative at end of weeks 1 (V4), 2 (V5) and 6 (V7); • Rates of absence of “itching”, and “burning” at each day of the treatment period (Day 2 - Day 6) as reported in the patient diary and V4, V5, V6, and V7; The safety variables are incidence and severity of AEs during the whole trial and vital signs assessed at baseline and at the end of the trial.
