Comparing Sarecycline and Doxycycline Effects on the Skin and Gut Bacteria in Acne.

Официальное название

The Effects of Sarecycline Versus Doxycycline on the Gut Microbiome and Skin Microbiome in Acne.

Обзор

This study is being done to help better understand how the gut and skin bacteria of the body change when people with acne are treated with Sarecycline or Doxycycline. The bacteria in the gut and on the skin will be studied to see how each treatment may affect them and whether they change the profile of the bacteria that is present.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Sarecycline
  One tablet by mouth (weight based dosing at 1.5 mg/kg and rounded to the closest tablet dose at either 60 mg, 100mg, or 150 mg tablet) once a day with food and a full glass of water (about 8 ounces)
• Препарат Doxycycline
  100 mg twice daily with food and a full glass of water (about 8 ounces)

Первичные конечные точки

• Change in the relative abundance of tetracycline-resistant bacteria in the gut microbiome [Срок оценки: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 4 weeks.]
• Change in the relative abundance of fungi/yeast in the gut microbiome [Срок оценки: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 4 weeks.]

Вторичные конечные точки (6)

• Change in inflammatory and non-inflammatory lesions [Срок оценки: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 4 weeks.]
• Change in the diversity of the gut microbiome: Shannon Diversity [Срок оценки: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 4 weeks.]
• Change in investigator global assessment of acne [Срок оценки: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 4 weeks.]
• Change in relative abundance of short chain fatty acid production genes [Срок оценки: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 4 weeks.]
• Change in skin microbiome relative abundance [Срок оценки: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 8 weeks.]
• Change in the skin microbiome relative abundance of fungi/yeast [Срок оценки: From enrollement to the end of treatment at 4 weeks.]
