| E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
Patients are to be excluded from the study when one or more of the following conditions are met: • patients with hyperkeratotic chronic plantar tinea pedis (moccasin type); • receiving systemic therapy with cytotoxic or immunosuppressive drugs either concurrently or within 12 weeks before the baseline visit; • received treatments like foot or shoe powders, pharmaceutical and cosmetic topicals (e.g. creams/gels, except for washing products) or topical anti-fungal therapy of the feet within 30 days before study entry; • oral antifungal therapies within three months before study entry (8 months for oral terbinafine), systemic antibiotic or corticosteroid treatment, topical corticosteroids within 30 days before study entry; • radiation therapy and/or anti-neoplastic agents within one year before study entry; • receiving potassium permanganate drugs either concurrently or within 1 week before the baseline visit; • patients with diabetes; • patients with compromised circulation; • evidence of drug or alcohol abuse; • pregnancy or nursing; • symptoms of a clinically significant illness that may influence the outcome of the study in the four weeks before the treatment phaseand during the study; • participation in the treatment phase of another clinical study within the last four weeks prior to the first administration of investigational drug in this study; • known allergic reactions to components of the study preparations, hypersensitivity against cetylstearyl alcohol; • treatment with systemic or locally acting medications which might counter or influence the study aim within two weeks before the treatment phase of the study (e.g. glucocorticosteroids); • in the opinion of the investigator or physician performing the initial examination the patient should not participate in the study, e.g. due to probable non-compliance or inability to understand the study and give adequately informed consent; • patient is institutionalized because of legal or regulatory order.
