Brief Summary

Acne vulgaris (AV) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceous unit that affects seborrheic areas such as the face, back and chest. AV is characterized by blackheads, papules, pustules nodes and cysts with sequelae of hyperpigmentation and scarring. It is one of the most common skin disorders treated by dermatologists. Acne vulgaris can be found at any age, although it is more frequent in teenagers and young adults. The prevalence of AV in a population of 11 to 30 years old is approximately 80%. Due to its involvement of the face, it is considered to be a cosmetic problem, thus bearing a psychosocial burden.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne lesion reduction number analyzed using GLMM

    objective evaluation was based on photographs of participants from three angles per visit. The outcome of efficacy was measured from the percentage reduction of inflammatory and non-inflammatory lesions number and analyzed using the GLMM (General Linear mixed Model)

    6 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Adapalene and placebo (ADAP)

PLACEBO COMPARATOR
Drug: AdapaleneDrug: Placebos

Adapalene, Nicotinamide, ABA, Zinc PCA (ANAZ)

EXPERIMENTAL
Drug: AdapaleneDrug: Nicotinamide, ABA and Zinc PCA

Interventions

third-generation topical retinoid primarily used in the treatment of mild-moderate acne. It is effective against acne conditions where comedones are predominant.

Adapalene and placebo (ADAP)Adapalene, Nicotinamide, ABA, Zinc PCA (ANAZ)

combination of three non-antibiotic active ingredients of nicotinamide, anti-bacterial adhesive agent (ABA) and zinc, or abbreviated as ANAZ to be well-tolerated by patients with acne vulgaris
