Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: Assessment of efficacy and safety of a new cream with miconazole 2 % and fluprednidene 0.1 % in comparison with the approved preparation Vobaderm® Cream and the underlying vehicle in patients with moderately to severely inflamed candidiasis of the skin. See also E5 (endpoints);Secondary Objective: See also E5 (endpoints);Primary end point(s): Number (percentage) of patients with treatment success (defined as sum score of clinical parameters = 2 and all individual score values = 1 and negative mycological result) at the main examination (final visit = test-of-cure visit).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: The primary endpoint will be evaluated at the regular study end, i.e. 7 days after end of treatment (= test-of-cure visit). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): • Change of the clinical symptom score between visits, and between EOT and final examination • Number (percentage) of patients with mycological success at EOT and at the final visit • Evaluation of therapeutic success at EOT by the investigator and by the patient • Evaluation of overall therapeutic success by the investigator at the final examination visit • Number (percentage) of patients with clinical relapse / re-infection at the final examination visit • Number and classification of adverse events • Evaluation of tolerability by the investigator and by the patient at all visits under treatment;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Different, depending on the endpoint, see E.5.2. | — |
