Official title Cardamom and Topical Roseomonas in Atopic Dermatitis
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06096857
What this study is testing
What is Roseomonas mucosa (RSM2015) and Cardamom seeds?
Roseomonas mucosa (RSM2015) and Cardamom seeds is an investigational medicine, given as an once-weekly treatment applied to the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for atopic dermatitis.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD), also called eczema, is a chronic skin condition. AD can make skin dry and itchy, and sometimes it can lead to serious health problems, such as asthma, food allergies, eye infections, and sleep problems.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
