Results of clinical research on therapy with Acnevac® in patients with acne vulgaris

Abstract

The article presents the results of clinical research on effectiveness of Acnevac® cps in the therapy of grade I — grade IV acne vulgaris. The research was conducted at four dermatological clinics in the Czech Republic from September 2011 to August 2012. The total number of patients under study was 83. The treatment lasted six months and involved four clinical examinations and photodocumentation. The research demonstrated the efficacy of therapy for papulopustules acne in 88 % of patients. Worsening was noted in one patient who discontinued from the study. The condition of 12 % of patients remained unchanged. The p-value of Wilcoxon test (criterion of statistical significance) — the difference in the average number of elements of rash at the time of enrollment and during the final/fourth survey was 9.7 × 10–12 in men and 2.18 × 10–13 — in wo­men, which corresponds to a statistically significant difference.
