Eczema — also known as atopic dermatitis — is a condition that makes the skin red and itchy. There is no cure for eczema, but researchers are focused more than ever on trying to find ways to treat it.
Palmetto Clinical Trial Services needs volunteers 12 to 65 years old in the Greenville area who have had moderate to severe eczema for at least 6 months to evaluate a potential topical treatment.
You or your child may qualify if eczema affects at least 5% of the body. To estimate how much of the body has eczema, 1% of the body is approximately the size of the hand, excluding the thumb. So, if you think there are 5 or more ‘hand prints’ of eczema, you may qualify.
