The Pediatric and Adolescent Dermatology Office at Rady Children’s Hospital, San Diego is conducting a research study to see whether an investigational drug not approved by the FDA is safe and how well it works to relieve any of the symptoms associated with acne. The study also involves a placebo (a tablet with no active drug in it). Qualified participants must be 12 years or older and have moderate to severe facial acne. Compensation for time and travel will be provided. There is no charge for the study drugs and visits with the dermatologist. For more information, call 858-576-1700, extention 4295.
