Help evaluate new dermatology treatments
If you are living with a dermatology condition affecting your skin, hair, or nails, participating in a clinical research study may be an option.
Many conditions like eczema, psoriasis, alopecia, and scleroderma lack treatments that work for every patient. ICON matches patients with studies for these and many other conditions at no cost for patients.

Additional conditions with current and upcoming studies
Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis)
Eczema is a common allergic skin condition that can cause a skin rash that is often itchy, red or scaly in appearance. Currently, there is no cure for eczema, and treatments focus on symptom management and trigger avoidance. Register with ICON to match with eczema research studies.
Bullous Pemphigoid
Bullous pemphigoid is a rare skin condition most common in older adults. It can cause large fluid-filled blisters to form on the skin, often near joints and areas where the body bends, and may also cause mouth sores. Register with ICON to match with bullous pemphigoid studies.
Scleroderma (Systemic Sclerosis)
Scleroderma is a chronic, auto-immune disease that can cause scarring and damage to the skin and other organs. With no cure yet, current treatments may help relieve symptoms and slow disease progression. Register with ICON to match with scleroderma studies.

Am I eligible to participate in clinical research studies?
ICON supports many types of research studies, including those for patients with specific medical conditions and others for healthy volunteers. When you sign up with ICON to match with current or future studies, our clinical research specialists will collect high-level medical information from you to determine your eligibility for individual studies.
What to Expect
When you sign up for the free ICON Study Match program, clinical research specialists will review your information and inform you of studies you may be eligible for. When we find a match, ICON or the local study doctor's office may contact you for further screening. You may also be invited to complete surveys or participate in focus groups.
When you enroll in a study, you will learn study details, have a chance to ask questions, and be asked to provide written, informed consent. Every study has different requirements, including how and where you receive care and how many and how long study visits will be. All study participants receive regular study-related medical attention and are closely observed for safety concerns.
