Published Studies Related to Benzaclin (Clindamycin Topical)
Comparison of 2 clindamycin 1%-benzoyl peroxide 5% topical gels used once daily in the management of acne vulgaris. [2009.05] Combination therapy for the topical treatment of acne vulgaris using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) and an antibiotic is more efficacious and better tolerated than treatment with either component alone... The addition of hydrating excipients in the C/BPO HE formulation appears to improve patient tolerance and acceptance, which will likely help patients to comply with therapy.
Tolerability of clindamycin/tretinoin gel vs. tretinoin microsphere gel and adapalene gel. [2009.04] CONCLUSION: CLIN/RA was significantly better tolerated than was 0.1% tretinoin gel, as evidenced by significantly reduced erythema (P < 0.04), scaling (P < 0.03), itching (P < 0.02), burning (P < 0.03) and stinging (P < 0.04). A trend for greater erythema, scaling, and subjective discomfort for 0.1% adapalene gel compared to CLIN/RA was also evident.
Prospective, open-label, comparative study of clindamycin 1%/benzoyl peroxide 5% gel with adapalene 0.1% gel in Asian acne patients: efficacy and tolerability. [2009.03] BACKGROUND: Used as individual agents, topical antibiotics and benzoyl peroxide are known to be effective in treatment of acne. Clindamycin phosphate 1% with benzoyl peroxide 5% (CDP/BPO) is a new combination gel, made by rationale, in that combination drug is more effective than either ingredients used alone. Adapalene 0.1% (ADA) is the third-generation retinoid, shown to be as effective as other topical retinoid with well tolerability. OBJECTIVES: To compare the efficacy and tolerability in combination of CDP/BPO in comparison with ADA in Asian patients with mild to moderate acne vulgaris... CONCLUSION: Combination formulation of CDP/BPO and ADA were shown to be both effective in decreasing total, inflammatory, and non-inflammatory lesion counts along with well tolerability in Asian patients with mild to moderate acne vulgaris.
A novel gel formulation of clindamycin phosphate-tretinoin is not associated with acne flaring. [2008.08] Concern exists about using topical retinoids on patients with inflammatory acne lesions, fearing that a flare in inflammation will occur. In 3 multicenter, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 trials of a clindamycin phosphate 1.2%-tretinoin 0.025% gel (CLIN/RA), clinical evaluations after 2 weeks of treatment determined if flaring occurred in participants treated with tretinoin gel 0.025% (RA) monotherapy, and the difference in inflammation when treated with the combination formulation.
Community-based trial results of combination clindamycin 1%--benzoyl peroxide 5% topical gel plus tretinoin microsphere gel 0.04% or 0.1% or adapalene gel 0.1% in the treatment of moderate to severe acne. [2007.07] Acne is characterized by different types of lesions at different stages of development... This study investigated the efficacy and safety of combination therapy with clindamycin 1%-BPO 5% topical gel plus tretinoin microsphere (RAM) gel 0.04% or 0.1% or adapalene (AP) gel 0.1% in moderate to severe acne.

Evaluation of the Effectiveness, Safety, and Tolerability of Duac Akne Gel and Epiduo Gel in the Treatment of Facial Acne Vulgaris [Recruiting]
The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of two marketed products in
subjects with facial acne vulgaris
Combination Therapy With Differin® Gel 0.3% and Duac® (Clindamycin/Benzoyl Peroxide Gel) in Subjects With Acne Vulgaris [Recruiting]
This study is to determine the efficacy and safety of 12 week treatment with Differin® Gel
0. 3% applied in the evening, in combination with Duac® (Clindamycin/Benzoyl Peroxide Gel)
applied in the morning, in Subjects with Acne vulgaris.
Comparison of Duac® Gel And Differin® Gel in Mild to Moderate Acne Vulgaris [Completed]
Comparing the efficacy and safety of a gel formulation containing a combination of
clindamycin phosphate (equivalent to 1% clindamycin) and benzoyl peroxide (5%) once daily
with a gel containing 0. 1% adapalene once daily in the treatment of acne vulgaris of mild to
moderate severity.
A Study to Evaluate Tolerability of Two Topical Drug Products in the Treatment of Facial Acne [Recruiting]
Multi-center, single-blind, randomized, comparative, split-face study. The duration of the
study is 8 weeks. Commencing at baseline, subjects will apply once daily both clindamycin
and benzoyl peroxide gel and benzoyl peroxide/adapalene gel in a bilateral split-face
fashion (allocation to left and right side randomly assigned) for an initial 2 weeks. After
visit 3, subjects will commence application of clindamycin and benzoyl peroxide gel to the
entire face for an additional 6 weeks.
