Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The primary objectives of this study are to determine the efficacy and safety of FMX103 1.5% minocycline foam applied topically once daily for 12 weeks in the treatment of rosacea.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: FMX103 minocycline foam 1.5%
  • Drug: Vehicle foam
Phase 3

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, multicenter, double-blind, vehicle-controlled, 2 arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of FMX103 topical foam containing 1.5% minocycline compared to vehicle, in the treatment of participants with moderate-to-severe facial papulopustular rosacea. Qualified participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio (active:vehicle) to receive 1 of the following 2 treatments:

  • FMX103 minocycline foam 1.5%

  • Vehicle foam

Participants will be assigned to 1 of 2 treatments according to the randomization schedule. Participants will apply (or have applied) the study drug topically once daily for 12 weeks as directed. Participants will be advised to use the study drug at approximately the same time each day. Both the Investigator and participant will be blinded to the study drug identity. Participants will return for visits at Weeks 1, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. Efficacy evaluations (inflammatory lesion counts and Investigator's Global Assessment [IGA] score) will be performed at Weeks 4, 8, and 12 during the study.

Note: Originally the two studies FX2016-11 and FX2016-12 were combinedly presented in the protocol registration form under one NCT number (NCT03142451), and later separated since results were analyzed separately.

Study Design

Study Type:
Interventional
Actual Enrollment :
751 participants
Allocation:
Randomized
Intervention Model:
Parallel Assignment
Masking:
Double (Participant, Investigator)
Masking Description:
This is a double-blind study, with limited access to the randomization code. The randomization code will be held in confidence until after the study database is locked and a memo documenting the database lock has been issued. Every effort will be made to retain the integrity of the blind. When issued to the sites, the study drug will be identical in appearance for all participants, regardless of treatment assignment.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: FMX103 1.5%

Participants will apply the assigned FMX103 minocycline foam 1.5% topically once daily for 12 weeks as directed.

Drug: FMX103 minocycline foam 1.5%
Dosage form description: Foam containing minocycline HCl 1.5%. Once daily application of a sufficient amount of foam to cover the entire face. Estimated maximum is 0.5 g of drug product containing 7.5 mg (1.5% active) of minocycline. Participants will apply a small amount of the drug as a thin layer over all areas of the face. Participants should apply the drug at approximately the same time each day, about 1 hour before bedtime.

Placebo Comparator: Vehicle foam

Participants will apply the assigned vehicle foam topically once daily for 12 weeks as directed.

Drug: Vehicle foam
Dosage form description: Foam containing minocycline vehicle foam. Once daily application of a sufficient amount of foam to cover the entire face. Estimated maximum is 0.5 g of drug product containing 0.0 mg (vehicle) of minocycline. Participants will apply a small amount of the drug as a thin layer over all areas of the face. Participants should apply the drug at approximately the same time each day, about 1 hour before bedtime.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The Absolute Change From Day 0/Baseline in the Inflammatory Lesion Count at Week 12 [Baseline and Week 12]

    To determine the efficacy of FMX103 1.5% minocycline foam applied topically once daily for 12 weeks in the treatment of rosacea. Lesion counts included the number of papules, pustules, and nodules. Change from Baseline was calculated as the value at Baseline minus the post-Baseline value. Thus, a positive change reflects a reduction in lesion count.

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving Investigator Global Assessments (IGA) Treatment Success at Week 12 [Week 12]

    To determine the efficacy of FMX103 1.5% minocycline foam applied topically once daily for 12 weeks in the treatment of rosacea. The Investigator assessed the global severity of rosacea using the IGA scale. The scale ranges from 0 (Clear): No inflammatory papules or pustules to 4 (Severe): Many inflammatory papules or pustules, and up to 2 nodules. Higher scores indicated severe outcome. Treatment success was defined as an IGA score of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear), and at least a 2-step improvement (decrease) from Day 0/Baseline.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving IGA Treatment Success of at Least 2 Grades at Week 12 [Week 12]

    To determine the efficacy of FMX103 1.5% minocycline foam applied topically once daily for 12 weeks in the treatment of rosacea. The Investigator assessed the global severity of rosacea using the IGA scale. The scale ranges from 0 (Clear): No inflammatory papules or pustules to 4 (Severe): Many inflammatory papules or pustules, and up to 2 nodules. Higher scores indicated severe outcome. Treatment success was defined as a 2-grade improvement (decrease) in score at Week 12 compared to Day 0/Baseline. Here, overall number of participants analyzed signifies only the participants with available data that were analyzed for the outcome measure.

  2. The Percent Change From Day 0/Baseline in Inflammatory Lesion Count at Week 12 [Baseline and Week 12]

    To determine the efficacy of FMX103 1.5% minocycline foam applied topically once daily for 12 weeks in the treatment of rosacea. Lesion counts included the number of papules, pustules, and nodules. Here, overall number of participants analyzed signifies only the participants with available data that were analyzed for the outcome measure.

  3. The Absolute Change From Day 0/Baseline in the Inflammatory Lesion Counts at Week 4 and Week 8 [Baseline, Week 4 and Week 8]

    To determine the efficacy of FMX103 1.5% minocycline foam applied topically once daily for 12 weeks in the treatment of rosacea. Lesion counts included the number of papules, pustules, and nodules. The change from Baseline was calculated as the value at Baseline minus the post-Baseline value. Thus, a positive change reflects a reduction in lesion count.

  4. Percentage of Participants Achieving IGA Treatment Success at Week 4 and Week 8 [Week 4 and Week 8]

    To determine the efficacy of FMX103 1.5% minocycline foam applied topically once daily for 12 weeks in the treatment of rosacea. The Investigator assessed the global severity of rosacea using the IGA scale. The scale ranges from 0 (Clear): No inflammatory papules or pustules to 4 (Severe): Many inflammatory papules or pustules, and up to 2 nodules. Higher scores indicated severe outcome. Treatment success was defined as an IGA score of 0 (clear) or 1 (almost clear), and at least a 2-grade improvement (decrease) from Day 0/Baseline.

  5. Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs) [From Day 0/Baseline until the Safety Follow-up (4 weeks after Week 12 [Final Visit])]

    To evaluate the tolerability and safety of topical minocycline foam applied once daily for 12 weeks. A treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) was defined as any AE with an onset date on or after the first application of study drug, and before to the last application of study drug plus 3 days, having been absent pre-treatment or worsening relative to the pre-treatment state.

Title Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)
Description To evaluate the tolerability and safety of topical minocycline foam applied once daily for 12 weeks. A treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) was defined as any AE with an onset date on or after the first application of study drug, and before to the last application of study drug plus 3 days, having been absent pre-treatment or worsening relative to the pre-treatment state.
Time Frame From Day 0/Baseline until the Safety Follow-up (4 weeks after Week 12 [Final Visit])

Outcome Measure Data

Analysis Population Description
The Safety (SAF) population included all randomized participants who used at least 1 dose of study drug, including participants who had no post-Baseline assessments unless all dispensed study drug was returned unused.
Arm/Group Title FMX103 1.5% Vehicle Foam
Arm/Group Description Participants applied the assigned FMX103 minocycline foam 1.5% topically once daily for 12 weeks as directed. Participants applied the assigned vehicle foam topically once daily for 12 weeks as directed.
