Study Summary

This trial is testing the effect of two different gels on athletes foot, comparing DNA sequencing and a standard lab test to see which is more accurate, and looking at side effects of the gel.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-65 with athlete's foot caused by T. rubrum, confirmed through lab tests and symptoms. Participants must understand and sign consent forms, including HIPAA authorization. Excluded are those with recent cancer treatment (except certain skin cancers), significant diseases, allergies to study gels, immune suppression, pregnancy/breastfeeding, other dermatological conditions or treatments that could affect results.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial compares the safety and effectiveness of two experimental gels (DBI-001 Gel and DBI-002 Gel) against an Aqueous Gel in treating athlete's foot over a period of about a week. It uses DNA sequencing and PCR testing to measure the presence of fungus before and after treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, common ones for topical antifungal treatments include local irritation like redness or itching at the application site. There may also be risks related to allergic reactions if sensitivity to gel components exists.
