About this study

Official title: A Clinical Study to Assess the Photosensitisation and Photoallergy Potential of a Cosmetic Facial Product in Healthy Subjects

To evaluate the skin irritation and sensitization potential of a cosmetic facial product, under exaggerated conditions of use with controlled product application and under supervision of a dermatologist.

Read the detailed description

In this three-phase phototoxicity-photosensitisation (PT-PA) study, the test material and a positive control are applied under a semi-occlusive patch to the upper back of each subject. The first phase of the study is an Induction Phase; a controlled amount of each product is applied under a semi-occlusive patch. The patch will remain on the skin for 24 (±2) hours during this phase. Following patch removal the patch site will be exposed to ultraviolet - A (UVA) radiation and re-assessed 24 hours later prior to re-application of another semi-occlusive patch (with both the products) to the same site. The Induction phase will last 3 weeks. After a subject completes the Induction Phase they will enter a Rest Phase of 2 weeks duration, during which no patches will be applied. After the Rest Phase, subjects will return to the clinical site for the Challenge Phase. In the Challenge phase two test patches will be applied to virgin skin areas on each subjects' upper back for 24 hours. Following removal of both patches, one of the Challenge patch test sites will be exposed to UVA radiation. Both Challenge patch test sites will be assessed up until 72 (±2) hours later.

What is being measured

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

  1. Combined Skin Irritation (Dermal Response) and Superficial Irritation (Other Effects) Scores at Induction Phase at Day 2

    A trained assessor assessed all patch sites. The following scores were used to express the response observed at the time of examination: 0=No evidence of irritation, 1=Minimal erythema; barely perceptible, 2=Definite erythema, readily visible; or minimal edema; or minimal papular response, 3=Erythema and papules, 4=Definite edema, 5=Erythema, edema, and papules, 6=Vesicular eruption, 7=Strong reaction spreading beyond test site. Other features indicative irritation (Superficial irritation) scores were: Grade A/Score 0=Slight glazed appearance, Grade B/Score 1=Marked glazing, Grade C/Score 2=Glazing with peeling and cracking, Grade F/Score 3=Glazing with fissures, Grade G/Score 3=Film of dried serous exudate covering all or portion of the patch, Grade H/Score 3=Small petechial erosions and/or scabs.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Facial micellar cleanser and Saline Solution: Sodium Chloride (NaCl; 0.9%) in people with Skin Care, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 1 site in Brazil.

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 27 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 15 Feb 2019. 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 Brazil. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Feb 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Combined Skin Irritation (Dermal Response) and Superficial Irritation (Other Effects) Scores at Induction Phase at Day 2 (time frame: At Day 2). The study lists 14 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 15 Feb 2019.
