About this study

Official title: An 8-week Full Face HUT Design, Single Center, Double Blinded, Controlled and Randomized Study to Evaluate Different Product Regimens' Performance on Protecting Skin With Resilience Under Tracked City Environmental Aggressors

  • To investigate the product regiments' performance on moisturization related skin healthy signs (skin moisturization, barrier function, elasticity, translucency, roughness and skin conditions) through instrumental evaluation, clinical grading and self-assessment before, during and after 8 weeks' home usage under city environmental aggressors (Sun, change of temperature and humidity, wind and air pollution) among 3 product regimens and Non-treatment control;
  • To explore the linkage among products efficacy, ambient aggressors, and life habits;
  • To investigate product regimens' tolerance and safety via Home Use Test;
  • To collect skin microflora/microbiome samples for potential research on skin microbiome distribution change as impacted by product application and/or environmental aggressors change (data will be analyzed and reported separately).
Read the detailed description

This is a single center, double blinded, controlled and randomized 8-week home use clinical trial.

Subjects will be randomly and evenly divided into 3 groups (40subjects/group) with different facial care regimens during the 8-week home use study.

Group 1: NTG Hydro Boost Gelee Milk Cleanser + NTG Hydro Boost Kiwi Water Gel Group 2: NTG Hydro Boost Gelee Milk Cleanser + NTG Hydro Boost Water Gel Group 3: NTG Hydro Boost Gelee Milk Cleanser + NTG Hydro Boost Extra Dry Emulsion There will be a 3-day wash-in period after subject's enrollment. During the period, no product will be allowed to be applied on the face and upper chest but only water washes twice per day in the morning and evening for 3 days before baseline (BL) measurement.

After baseline (BL) measurement, the product regimens will be applied on face at site under site instruction according to the randomization. Measurements will be taken at 2-4 hours and 8 hours after product regimens' application. Upper chest area will be measured as no treatment control.

A set of product regimen includes a facial cleanser and a facial cream will be distributed to each subject according to grouping and applied on the face at home for 8 weeks. Both cleanser and cream products will be applied twice a day in the morning and evening on the whole face. For the upper chest area, use water wash only twice per day in the morning and evening, no any other product is allowed.

The usage of assigned product regimens will be discontinued after 8-week home use, no any other product is allowed but only water wash twice per day in the morning and evening on both face and upper chest for 3 days (regression period).

Subjects will not be allowed to use sunscreen, makeup and any other cosmetic products on face and upper chest during the study period.

Subjects will visit the site at Screening (-3D), Baseline (BL), 1-week (1W), 4-week (4W), 8-week (8W) and 8-week+3-days (+3D) for measurements.

What is being measured

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

  1. Skin surface moisture content

    Skin surface moisture content is measured by skin capacitance measurement.

    Measured: 9 weeks

Secondary outcomes (22)
  1. Quality of Life

    In this study, an evaluation tool will be used to measure and quantify skin dryness related Quality of Life (QoL) attributes, to get an understanding of the improvement (related to moisturization benefits) after treatment of skin care regimens

    Measured: 9 weeks

  2. Subject Self-assessment

    Subject self-assessment Questionnaire (QN) on product performance

    Measured: 9 weeks

  3. Temperature

    Individual temperature measured by portable environmental tracker

    Measured: 9 weeks

  4. Humidity

    Individual humidity measured by portable environmental tracker

    Measured: 9 weeks

  5. PM 2.5

    Individual PM 2.5 measured by portable environmental tracker

    Measured: 9 weeks

  6. Skin microbiome

    To collect skin microflora/microbiome samples for potential research on skin microbiome distribution change as impacted by product application and/or environmental aggressors change.

    Measured: 9 weeks

  7. Life habits

    Subject's life pattern captured by diary.

    Measured: 9 weeks

  8. Skin barrier function

    TEWL

    Measured: 9 weeks

  9. Skin elasticity

    The mechanical property of the epidermis is measured by a non-invasive, in vivo suction skin elasticity meter.

    Measured: 9 weeks

  10. Skin roughness

    Skin roughness measurement via skin surface imaging

    Measured: 9 weeks

  11. Skin translucency

    Many common materials transmit and scatter light but are neither transparent or opaque. Such materials are described as translucent and the degree of translucency depends on the absorption and scattering coefficients of the material. In this study, the degree of skin translucency is quantified by the rate of lateral scatter of light and the total amount of backscattered light, which captured by a non-invasive Translucency Meter probe.

    Measured: 9 weeks

  12. Skin deep layer moisture content

    Skin deep layer moisture content by measuring skin dielectric constant.

    Measured: 9 weeks

  13. Skin firmness

    Dermatologist grading of skin firmness

    Measured: 9 weeks

  14. Skin elasticity

    Dermatologist grading of skin elasticity

    Measured: 9 weeks

    Dermatologist grading of skin radiance

    Measured: 9 weeks

  16. Skin smoothness

    Dermatologist grading of skin smoothness

    Measured: 9 weeks

  17. Skin fine lines

    Dermatologist grading of skin fine lines

  18. Skin softness

    Dermatologist grading of skin softness

    Measured: 9 weeks

  19. Skin hydration

    Dermatologist grading of skin hydration

    Measured: 9 weeks

  20. Skin translucency

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3 in people with Adult Skin Healthy Signs, run by Johnson & Johnson Pte Ltd at 1 site in China.

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 24 inclusion and 9 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 11 Apr 2018. 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 China. 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?

Skin surface moisture content (time frame: 9 weeks). 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 11 Apr 2018.
