About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Controlled Study to Evaluate the Sensitizing Potential of PEP005 Topical Gel (0.01% Concentration) in Healthy Volunteers Using a Repeat Insult Patch Test Design

To determine the sensitisation potential of PEP005 Topical Gel (0.01% concentration) on normal skin

To evaluate skin irritation

Read the detailed description

This is a repeat insult patch test study. On treatment days, the investigational product PEP005 Topical Gel (0.01% concentration) and vehicle control will be applied under open conditions to sites on the infrascapular region of the back 3 times weekly for 3 weeks (9 applications in total) during the induction phase. Following a rest period of approximatley 10-14 days, a single challenge application will be performed. Local tolerability will be assessed visually using an ordinal scoring system. If a cutaneous response observed in the challenge phase indicates possible sensitisation, or at the discretion of the investigator, a rechallenge will occur

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PEP005 Topical Gel (0.01% concentration) in people with Healthy, run by Peplin at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To determine the sensitization potential of PEP005 Topical Gel (0.01% concentration) on normal skin.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00357916, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Apr 2016.
