Trial Outcomes & Findings for Patient Education in Adherence on Acne (PEAce) (NCT NCT02307266)

NCT ID: NCT02307266

Last Updated: 2021-02-18

Results Overview

To prevent bias, treatment adherence was assessed without subject's knowledge using a Medication Event Monitoring System (MEMS). The treatment was placed in a container fitted with a MEMS cap which recorded the time/date every time it was opened and/or closed. A day with at least one opening was considered a day the subject was adherent. Mean rate of adherence in % corresponds to the number of days the subject was adherent dividided by the total number of days of the study (84 days) times 100. Analysis was performed on the "worst-case" population: Missing data were considered as non-adherence.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: week 12

Population: Only subjects with usable MEMS data were analyzed, therefore the number of subjects in the analysis population is not the full population.

To prevent bias, treatment adherence was assessed without subject's knowledge using a Medication Event Monitoring System (MEMS). The treatment was placed in a container fitted with a MEMS cap which recorded the time/date every time it was opened and/or closed. A day with at least one opening was considered a day the subject was adherent. Mean rate of adherence in % corresponds to the number of days the subject was adherent dividided by the total number of days of the study (84 days) times 100. Analysis was performed on the "worst-case" population: Missing data were considered as non-adherence.
