All Clinical Trials for ACITRETIN

Trial ID Title Status Sponsor Phase Start Date Summary
NCT00002143 ↗ Treatment of Psoriasis Using Acitretin in HIV-Positive Patients Completed Hoffmann-La Roche Phase 3 1969-12-31 To determine the efficacy of acitretin in the treatment of psoriasis in HIV/AIDS patients. Etretinate, a retinoid, has proven successful in the treatment of HIV-infected patients with psoriasis, but it has an elimination half-life of 100 days. Acitretin, a metabolite of etretinate, has a much shorter half-life of 2 to 3 days. Acitretin has proven effective in treating psoriasis in patients without HIV infection by reducing skin involvement and clearing of the condition, but it has not been thoroughly evaluated in HIV-infected patients.
NCT00003611 ↗ Acitretin in Preventing Skin Cancers in Patients With Previously Treated Skin Cancers Who Have Undergone Organ Transplantation Completed National Cancer Institute (NCI) N/A 2000-05-01 RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development or recurrence of cancer. The use of acitretin may be an effective way to prevent the recurrence or further development of skin cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized clinical trial to study the effectiveness of acitretin in preventing skin cancers in patients with at least two previously treated skin cancers who have undergone organ transplantation.
NCT00003611 ↗ Acitretin in Preventing Skin Cancers in Patients With Previously Treated Skin Cancers Who Have Undergone Organ Transplantation Completed Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology N/A 2000-05-01 RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development or recurrence of cancer. The use of acitretin may be an effective way to prevent the recurrence or further development of skin cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized clinical trial to study the effectiveness of acitretin in preventing skin cancers in patients with at least two previously treated skin cancers who have undergone organ transplantation.
NCT00156247 ↗ Acitretin and Etanercept in Psoriasis Completed Connetics Corp. Phase 2 2005-09-01 To determine whether acitretin plus etanercept is more effective than etanercept alone in clearing psoriasis plaques in adults.
NCT00156247 ↗ Acitretin and Etanercept in Psoriasis Completed University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey Phase 2 2005-09-01 To determine whether acitretin plus etanercept is more effective than etanercept alone in clearing psoriasis plaques in adults.
NCT00353119 ↗ A Placebo-Controlled Double-Blind Study on the Safety and Efficacy of Etanercept in Palmoplantar Pustulosis Completed Amgen Phase 3 2006-04-01 Palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) is a chronic recurrent skin condition characterized by the presence of pustules, erythema and hyperkeratosis on palms and soles. PPP can be a severe and disabling disease limiting the ability to walk or work. Although studies on the quality of life of patients with PPP are not available, a recent investigation showed that palmoplantar psoriasis (non pustular) has a more important impact on quality of life than plaque psoriasis. This important impact on quality of life is not surprising as palmoplantar psoriasis as well as palmoplantar pustulosis may limit the ability to work or conduct activities with hands or even impair walking. The disease is sometimes associated with psoriasis elsewhere on the body. Current treatments for PPP include topical corticosteroids, cyclosporine, PUVA therapy, methotrexate and acitretin. Response to topical corticosteroids and PUVA therapy is often disappointing presumably because the thickness of the stratum corneum on palms and soles prevents good penetration of topical medications and light. Cyclosporine and methotrexate are sometimes used with success for PPP but there are concerns with long term toxicity of both drugs. Therefore there is a need for new treatments for PPP.
