Challenges:

Acne prescreening can be challenging due to a high level of referrals and many subjects that do not meet criteria.

Resolution:

Extensive phone screening and office prescreening were able to meet the challenges and provide qualified participants. This trial had competitive enrollment across multiple sites. Having the resources available to screen a high number of quality subjects made this trial a success. Once again, the referrals from the Sanova physicians and/or PA proved to yield the most randomizations.
