Recruiting- Male/Female- 12 to 17 years of age- Compensation Available

Now Recruiting Dermatitis Volunteers at Miami, Hollywood, Boynton and Weston

This atopic dermatitis study is enrolling teens between 12 and 17 years old whose eczema has not responded adequately to topical treatments. Researchers are looking for adolescents with a doctor-confirmed diagnosis of moderate to severe atopic dermatitis lasting at least one year. Your child may be considered whether or not they have previously tried a biologic treatment for eczema. Participation involves investigational treatment and close medical monitoring at no cost to your family. Compensation is available. Find out if your child qualifies today.
