Published Studies Related to Triaz (Benzoyl Peroxide)

Comparing a novel solubilized benzoyl peroxide gel with benzoyl peroxide/clindamycin: final data from a multicenter, investigator-blind, randomized study. [2009.09]
INTRODUCTION: A solubilized 5% BPO gel has been developed to enhance the bioavailability, follicular penetration, and efficacy of BPO... CONCLUSION: Compared with BPO/clindamycin, the solubilized BPO gel offers significantly greater reductions in non-inflammatory lesion count and comparable reductions in inflammatory lesion count in the absence of an antibiotic.

A North American study of adapalene-benzoyl peroxide combination gel in the treatment of acne. [2009.08]
A fixed-dose combination gel with adapalene 0.1% and benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2.5% recently has been developed for the treatment of acne vulgaris. In this multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, active- and vehicle-controlled study conducted at 60 centers in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Canada, we assessed the efficacy and safety of adapalene-BPO combination gel in comparison with adapalene and BPO monotherapies as well as the gel vehicle...

Efficacy and tolerability of a fixed combination of clindamycin phosphate (1.2%) and low concentration benzoyl peroxide (2.5%) aqueous gel in moderate or severe acne subpopulations. [2009.08]
BACKGROUND: Oral antibiotics are commonly prescribed for moderate or severe acne, but there may be limitations due to concerns about side effects associated with systemic treatments. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a fixed combination clindamycin phosphate 1.2% and benzoyl peroxide 2.5% (clindamycin-BP 2.5%) aqueous gel in the treatment of moderate or severe acne subpopulations... CONCLUSION: Clindamycin-BP 2.5% aqueous gel is an effective and safe once-daily treatment for moderate or severe acne.

A 3-step acne system containing solubilized benzoyl peroxide versus clindamycin-benzoyl peroxide. [2009.07]
A 3-step acne system has been developed to enhance the bioavailability and follicular penetration of benzoyl peroxide (BPO). Participants with mild to moderate facial acne vulgaris were randomly assigned to 10 weeks' facial treatment with the 3-step acne system (proprietary salicylic acid cleanser 2% twice daily, proprietary salicylic acid toner 2% once daily, and solubilized BPO gel 5% twice daily) or with control cleanser twice daily plus clindamycin 1%-BPO 5% gel (jar formulation) twice daily...

Adapalene-benzoyl peroxide, a unique fixed-dose combination topical gel for the treatment of acne vulgaris: a transatlantic, randomized, double-blind, controlled study in 1670 patients. [2009.05.21]
Summary Background Combination therapy utilizing agents with complementary mechanisms of action is recommended by acne guidelines to help simultaneously target multiple pathogenic factors. A unique, topical, fixed-dose combination gel with adapalene 0.1% and benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2.5% has recently been developed for the once-daily treatment of acne...

Clinical Trials Related to Triaz (Benzoyl Peroxide)

Study to Demonstrate the Efficacy and Safety of Adapalene/Benzoyl Peroxide Topical Gel in Subjects With Acne Vulgaris [Completed]
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel group study with 12 weeks of treatment of acne vulgaris. Efficacy and safety evaluations will be performed at Screening (safety only), Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12. All Investigator's Global Assessment evaluators and lesion counters must be trained and approved by Galderma. The evaluator of a subject should remain the same during the study.

The primary objective is to demonstrate the superiority in efficacy and assess safety of adapalene/benzoyl peroxide topical gel (adapalene/benzoyl peroxide gel) versus adapalene topical gel, 0. 1% (adapalene monad); benzoyl peroxide topical gel, 2. 5% (benzoyl peroxide monad) and topical gel vehicle (gel vehicle) in the treatment of acne vulgaris for up to 12 weeks.

Study of Benzoyl Peroxide Cream for Mild to Moderate Acne Vulgaris [Completed]

Efficacy and Tolerance of a Derivative of Salicylic Acid and 5% Benzoyl Peroxide in Facial Acne Vulgaris [Completed]
Acne vulgaris is a frequent inflammatory skin condition involving the pilosebaceous unit and affecting more than 80% of teenagers. Mild to moderate acne vulgaris is usually treated with topical agents such as benzoyl peroxide, retinoids and antibiotics. These treatments can be associated with local tolerance problems and/or antibiotic resistance. Salicylic acid has been shown to be an effective treatment for acne. LHA is a lipophilic hydroxy acid derivative of salicylic acid that has comedolytic and antibacterial properties.

The objective of this trial was to compare the efficacy and tolerance of a cream formulation containing 0. 3% LHA (LHA formulation) to a 5% benzoyl peroxide gel.
