Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects who complete an appropriately administered informed consent process that includes signing the consent form.
  • Subjects 18-75 years old of either sex.
  • Are of any skin type or race, providing the skin pigmentation will allow discernment of erythema;
  • Subjects who are in good general health.
  • Subjects who are willing and able to have the test products applied as directed, and comply with study instructions.
  • Participants must be willing to restrict their activity for the 8 hour patch wear time.
  • All participants agree to wear a t-shirt provided by the site for the entire 8 hour patch wear time.

Who cannot join

  • Subjects who have a history of sensitivity to any of the test products or adhesion material.
  • Subjects who are pregnant.
  • Subject with excessive hair at the application sites, scar tissue, tattoo, or coloration that would interfere with placement of test product or skin assessment.
  • Subjects with diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, poor circulation or have any clinically significant chronic illness.
  • Subjects with active dermatitis (including sunburn) in the treatment area, or other visible dermatological disease which, in the investigator's opinion, might interfere with the response to the test products or interfere with the skin assessments associated with the test products.
  • Have history of significant dermatologic cancers (eg, melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma).

  • Subjects who have used topical dermatological products in the application area within 24 hours prior to the test product application.
  • Subject using a concomitant medication that, in the investigator's opinion, could interfere with the interpretation of study results. Examples of such drugs include non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs, e.g., aspirin), topical or systemic corticosteroids, and cold/cough products containing antihistamines and/or either phentolamine, pseudoephedrine or phenylpropanolamine.
  • Subjects who have received an investigational medication or device within 30 days prior to enrolment into this study.
  • Subjects who are currently participating in an investigational study.
  • Subject who are known to be noncompliant or are unlikely to comply with the requirements of the study protocol (e.g., due to alcoholism, drug dependency, mental incapacity) in the opinion of the investigator.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patch Temperature

    The temperature of the patch will be monitored by the use of a probe placed under the patch and recorded for the duration of the study.

    Measured: 8 hours

  2. Patch Adhesion

    Patch adhesion will be recorded for the duration of the study.

    Measured: 8 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Investigational Air-Activated Adhesive-Backed Heat Patch (3-Cell) and Temperature Probe in people with Healthy, run by Chattem, Inc. 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 7 inclusion and 11 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 17 Mar 2017. 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.

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?

Patch Temperature (time frame: 8 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 17 Mar 2017.
