This will be completed by a dermatologist or dermatology resident that will be blinded to which side was treated with which intervention. Assessment will be completed through a visual analog used by the assessor where REDCap will assign a numeric value based on the position of the marking. The blinded photo reviewer will be informed whether the photo is a baseline or follow-up photo, but will be blinded to which side of the body was treatment or control. The photos will be marked to indicate the side of the body, and the photo reviewer will be asked to compare the left baseline side to the left follow-up side, and similarly the right baseline to the right follow-up, using a visual sliding analogue scale, where REDCap will assign a numeric value based on the position of the marking indicator.

The CDLQI and DLQI surveys are the most frequently used validated, patient-reported outcome measure in dermatology trials. The DLQI is a 10-question, self-administered survey for patients over 16, designed to measure how skin conditions impact daily life over the past week. It covers symptoms, daily activities, leisure, work/school, personal relationships, and treatment, with a total score of 0-30 where higher scores indicate greater impairment. The CDLQI contains many of the same questions as the DLQI, but is administered to patients from the ages of 4 to 16."}]}, 'oversightModule': {'isUsExport': False, 'oversightHasDmc': True, 'isFdaRegulatedDrug': True, 'isFdaRegulatedDevice': False}, 'conditionsModule': {'keywords': ['Topical Minocycline', 'Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis (CARP)', 'CARP', 'Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis', 'Minocycline', 'Tetracycline', 'Pruritus'], 'conditions': ['Confluent and Reticulated Papillomatosis (CARP)']}, 'referencesModule': {'references': [{'type': 'BACKGROUND', 'citation': 'FDA Authority Over Cosmetics: How Cosmetics Are Not FDA-Approved, but Are FDA-Regulated (https://www.fda.gov/cosmetics/cosmetics-laws-regulations/fda-authority-over-cosmetics-how-cosmetics-are-not-fda-approved-are-fda-regulated)'}, {'type': 'BACKGROUND', 'citation': 'FDA drug information, AMZEEQ®TM (minocycline) topical foam (https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2019/212379s000lbl.pdf)'}, {'type': 'BACKGROUND', 'citation': 'Lateef H, et al.

Participants will apply AMZEEQ® to one side of the body and a topical emollient to the other for 5 weeks, followed by an optional extension period. The study aims to assess whether topical minocycline is a well-tolerated and effective alternative to oral antibiotics.', 'detailedDescription': 'Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis (CARP) is a dermatologic condition consisting of primarily truncal hyperpigmented and hyperkeratotic papules and macules in adolescents. The exact cause is unclear, though a gram-positive actinomycete, Dietzia papillomatosis, likely plays a role. Resolution of the rash could take a year or even years to fully occur. While the gold-standard is to treat with oral minocycline (100 mg daily), preliminary data suggests that topical minocycline may be effective as well. A case report of a 51-year-old female documents clearance with topical minocycline foam. Other antibiotics can be considered as well, such as azithromycin and erythromycin. Antifungal medications can also be considered as well as topicals such as tretinoin, tacrolimus, and urea.\n\nOral minocycline has a number of side effects and cannot be used in pregnancy. Given side effects and risks of lengthy oral antibiotic treatment, investigators believe that utilization of topical minocycline foam could be a suitable option for patients, especially those who do not want to be treated with oral minocycline for an extended period of time.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '9 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age ≥ 9 years\n* Clinical diagnosis of CARP\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Current or recent (within 6 months) use of oral minocycline\n* Pregnancy or breastfeeding\n* History of intracranial hypertension, autoimmune disorder, liver/kidney disease\n* Immunocompromised status\n* Hypersensitivity to tetracyclines\n* Unstable medical condition\n* Inability or unwillingness to provide informed consent'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT07462702', 'briefTitle': 'Topical Minocycline for CARP', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Medical University of South Carolina'}, 'officialTitle': 'Topical Minocycline Foam for Treatment of Confluent and Reticulated Papillomatosis (CARP)', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'Pro00140636'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Experimental Half of the Body', 'description': 'Participants will apply the investigational topical medication to one half of the body that they choose', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Topical Minocycline Foam FXFM244']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Control Half of the Body', 'description': 'Participants apply the control topical emollient without active ingredient to the contralateral half of the body', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Control']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Topical Minocycline Foam FXFM244', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': "Topical minocycline foam that will be applied to half of the subject's body that will be chosen by the subject.", 'armGroupLabels': ['Experimental Half of the Body']}, {'name': 'Control', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'Control topical emollient that will be applied to the contralateral half of the body.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Control Half of the Body']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Lara Wine Lee, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Medical University of South Carolina'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Medical University of South Carolina', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Journey Medical Corporation', 'class': 'INDUSTRY'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Professor-Faculty', 'investigatorFullName': 'Lara Wine Lee', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Medical University of South Carolina'}}}}
