Non-Invasive Device for Early Detection of Atopic Dermatitis Flares

Official title: Evaluation of a Non-Invasive Device for Early Detection of Flares in Adults and Adolescents With Atopic Dermatitis

Run by Castle Biosciences Incorporated · NCT07645820 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study tests whether a home-use device measuring skin properties can predict an eczema flare before symptoms appear in people aged 12–89 with a history of flares.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are ages 12–89 with a history of at least one AD flare in the past two months, able to use the device at home and complete diaries, and not planning to change systemic AD treatments during the study.

Probably not a fit

Patients who do not experience measurable skin barrier changes before flares or who cannot adhere to at-home measurements may not benefit.

What this trial studies

This observational study will collect skin measurements using the Nevisense Go device from participants with atopic dermatitis over about 90 days. Participants will perform device measurements at home, keep an electronic diary, and attend up to five in-person visits. The goal is to see if changes in skin barrier function, as measured by electrical impedance spectroscopy, precede visible flares and symptoms, helping estimate flare likelihood without guiding treatment during the study. Data will include device readings, diary entries, and clinician assessments to explore associations with flare onset. The study is designed to be non-interventional, with no changes to participants' clinical care based on study measurements.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could lead to tools that help predict flares and support proactive care strategies for eczema.

How similar studies have gone: Past research with electrical impedance spectroscopy has shown associations with skin barrier changes in AD, but applying it to early flare prediction is exploratory.
