What is being measured

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

  1. Self reported pain score on Pain Numeric Scale (NRS) at each visit

    To measure the efficacy of SP160412 in the reduction of pain as reported by the participants. The Brief Pain Inventory - short version assesses pain in the last 24 hours and its impact on daily functioning. It evaluates the worst, the least, the average pain the participants felt during the last day and the actual pain. Scores range from 0 ("no pain") to 10 ("pain as bad as you can imagine"). BPI also evaluates the degree to which pain has interfered with different areas of participants' lives over the past 24 hours: general activity, walking, work, mood, enjoyment of life, relations with others and sleep. BPI pain interference is scored as the mean of the seven interference items, each of which is scored from zero ("does not interfere") to 10 ("completely interferes"). Finally, BPI also evaluates the amount of relief of pain treatments have provided in the past 24 hours, ranging from 0% ("no relief") to 100% ("complete relief").

    Measured: Twice a day (in the morning and at night) from day 1 to day 5

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. To measure the efficacy SP160412 combined with a placebo in the reduction of clinical sign of sunburn

    To measure the efficacy of SP160412 on Pruritus. 11-point Itch NRS (Appendix I.3. Pruritus Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)); This instrument is presented as a single 11-point numeric scale with scores from 0 to 10, and anchored at 0 representing "No itch" and 10 representing "Worst imaginable itch"

    Measured: Twice a Day (in the morning and at night) from day 1 to day 5

  2. To measure the efficacy of SP160412 for sleep quality

    To measure the Sleep quality Scale using The 11-point(NRS)) is an unidimensional patient reported outcome (PRO) for quality of sleep. Participants will on a 11-point numeric rating scale ranging from 0 for "Best possible sleep" to 10 for "Worst possible sleep". Used on a daily basis, sleep diaries are reliable and valid instruments for capturing patient reported outcomes. The sleep quality NRS has good psychometric properties.single-item sleep quality NRS was correlated with pain.

    Measured: once a day in the morning from day 1 to 5

  3. To evaluate the number of subject with adverse events

    To evaluate the Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v4.0, Change From Baseline in Pain Scores on the Visual Analog Scale at evaluate the safety of SP160412 relative to each component alone combined with a placebo based on the incidence of treatment emergent Adverse Events will be recorded in the daily log by the participant and it will be documented at all evaluation visits. Overall incidence of adverse events will be collected for all days of evaluation, from Visit 0 (Day 0) to Visit 6 (Day 8).

    Measured: once a day from Days 2 to 8

  4. Measurement of the evolution of erythema as measured by the Chromameter

    To measure the evolution of erythema color by the use of a Chromameter

    Measured: at day one and visit at day 5

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SP160412 Ibuprofen 400 mg and Chlorpheniramine maleate 4 mg in people with Sunburn, run by Sephoris Pharmaceuticals LLC at 1 site in Mauritius.

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 11 inclusion and 18 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Sep 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 Mauritius. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor decided to stop for lack of efficacy). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Self reported pain score on Pain Numeric Scale (NRS) at each visit (time frame: Twice a day (in the morning and at night) from day 1 to day 5). 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 27 Sep 2019.
