Abstraktne

Acne vulgaris is a complex skin disorder involving multiple abnormalities of the pilosebaceous unit. Acne is the most common skin disease during puberty and worsens throughout adolescence. However, epidemiological studies suggest that acne can arise at any age, most frequently affecting individuals between puberty and 30 years of age, with 79%-95% of subjects aged between 16 years and 18 years and 80% of subjects between puberty and 30 years of age. Acne is considered the main reason for consultation with the dermatologist in institutional and private clinical practice.
Clinical features include seborrhoea, non-inflammatory lesions, inflammatory lesions and various degrees of scarring. There are many classifications of acne and scarring severity. Moderate to severe acne is about 15-20%.
Facial acne scarring affects both sexes equally and occurs to some degree in up to 95% of cases. There is a significant correlation between the initial acne grade and the overall severity of scarring at all sites and in both sexes. This would suggest that treatment aimed at reducing the severity of acne might reduce the incidence of scarring. Both superficial inflammatory acne lesions as well as deep nodular lesions seem capable of producing scars.
Conventional therapies recommended for the treatment of acne vulgaris include retinoids, benzoyl peroxide (BPO), antibiotics, and hormonal therapy. Combination therapy using agents with complementary mechanisms provides the opportunity to target multiple pathogenetic causes of acne vulgaris.
The combination in gel with 0.1% adapalene and 2.5% BPO is a once-daily treatment of acne vulgaris. In several double- blind, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the Adapalene-BPO (A-BPO) combination therapy applied once daily for 12 weeks significantly reduced the number of both inflammatory and non-inflammatory lesions in subjects with moderate acne vulgaris. In Mexico there is an available commercial product of this combination (Effezel®; Galderma). The limitation of this topical therapy is the low tolerability by patients as they can experiment several levels of irritation, erythema, dryness, desquamation, burning, and itching), and patients are advised to expect these side effects, which contribute to discontinue therapy if it becomes severe.
On the other hand, 5-methyl-1-phenyl-2-(1h)-pyridone or pirfenidone (PFD) is a wide-spectrum antifibrotic drug that modulates diverse cytokines action, involving TGF-β, TNF-α, epidermal growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, VEGF, IGF-1, fibroblast growth factor, interferon-γ, interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and IL-8 and it has shown promising effects in vitro and in vivo settings. Also, PFD has proven effective in the prevention and regression of pulmonary fibrosis, peritoneal sclerosis, hepatic cirrhosis, uterine fibromyoma, left ventricular fibrosis, renal interstitial fibrosis, and breast capsular contracture in experimental models. A recently open phase II clinical trial evaluated the therapeutic use of PFD gel in localized scleroderma. Results showed it acts on both the inflammatory and the fibrotic phases.
The other component of Zaxcell is modified-diallyl disulfide oxide (M-DDO) an antimicrobial and antiseptic agent, which has been proved in patients with chronic diabetic ulcer as a potent germicide and has show to increase the beneficial effect of PFD preventing infections, accelerating and improving ulcer resolution. (Observations not published).
According to this, the investigators believe that Zaxcell (PFD + M-DDO) could play an important role in the modulation of inflammatory and scarring process in acne. The investigators hypothesis is that PFD in patients with moderate to severe acne modulates amplification of the inflammatory response, regulating the inflammasome activation, macrophage polarization and its activity in regulating the wound healing process of the skin in an early fashion.
Zaxcell is an innovative gel with a synergetic mode of action that could modulate the inflammatory response. Furthermore, has antiseptic properties and regulates the process of wound healing, fibrogenic and scarring process. In vitro and in vivo studies provide an initial body of evidence on the safety and clinical benefits of PFD, the main component of Zaxcell as a promising candidate for the treatment of moderate to severe acne.

Kirjeldus

Participants will be randomized using a random number table to distribute in the control (Effezel) and the experimental group (Pirfenidone+M-DDO). Before screening, participants will undergo an informed consent process and they will sign an institutional review board-approved informed consent form. The study will be conducted in accordance with Good Clinical Practices and the principles that have their origins in the Declaration of Helsinki (revised Seoul, Korea, 2008). Potential subjects with acne scars will be selected from the investigators practices and solicited from advertisements. To be included, subjects must have met the inclusion criteria. Demographics data and medical history will be registered on a monthly basis. Before treatment, all subjects with inflammation and scars will be evaluated in the face and back area using the Investigator´s Global Assessment scale (IGA scale) and all the lesions will be counted. The face and back area affected will be mapped and photographed. Participants in the experimental group will receive topical Zaxcell (Pirfenidone 10% +M-DDO gel) two times a day on the face and superior back and patients in control group will receive Effezel (Adapalene 0.1%+Benzoyl peroxide 2.5%) once a day. Both groups will apply the topical treatment in acne on the face and superior back area for six months previous cleansing of the area with neutral soap. Two biopsies of skin will be taken at the beginning, at month one and month 3 from the back area where the treatment will be applied. After this time, only clinical evaluations and photographs will be performed. Participants will be evaluated at every month until 6 months after their last application.
