Summary
Benzoyl peroxide, clindamycin and tazarotene are known to be effective treatment alternative
for acne vulgaris. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of a

Clinical Details
Official title: A Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Vehicle-Controlled, Phase 2 Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Benzoyl Peroxide/Clindamycin Gel and Tazarotene Cream When Used in Combination in the Treatment of Acne Vulgaris
Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Primary outcome: The absolute change in lesion counts (total, inflammatory, noninflammatory) from baseline to week 12.
The proportion of subjects who have a minimum 2-grade improvement in ISGA score from baseline to week 12.
Secondary outcome: The percent (%) change in lesion counts (total, inflammatory, noninflammatory) from baseline to week 12.
The proportion of subjects who have an ISGA score of 0 or 1 at week 12.
Detailed description:
The study subjects must have acne vulgaris and will apply study drug to their face for 12
weeks.
Study visits will occur at baseline (day 1) and at weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12. Subjects will be
assessed at every visit to determine how the study drug is working. Safety will be assessed
by evaluation of adverse events (AEs), vital signs, physical examinations, and withdrawals
from the study.
