About this study

Official title: A 21-Day, Randomized, Controlled Study to Evaluate the Skin Irritation Potential of CCP-020 (Diacerein 1%) Topical Ointment in Healthy Subjects Using a Cumulative Irritant Patch Test Design

Single center, randomized, controlled, evaluator blinded, within-subject study to evaluate the irritation potential of diacerein1% ointment on normal skin of healthy volunteers, using a cumulative irritancy patch test (CIPT) procedure.

Read the detailed description

This study was designed to assess the cumulative irritation potential of diacerein 1% ointment in comparison with vehicle ointment, 0.2% sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) (positive control), and 0.9% saline (negative control) on normal skin of healthy volunteers using a cumulative irritancy patch test (CIPT) procedure applied once daily for 21 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Skin Irritation Score

    Evaluation of the sum of all subjects' cumulative irritation scores for 21 days at each patch site.

    Cumulative Irritation Score is a visual score rating the degree of erythema, edema, and other signs of cutaneous irritation: Minimum = 0; Maximum = 6; higher score is worse outcome.

    Measured: Daily for 21 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing diacerein 1% ointment in people with Healthy, run by Castle Creek Pharmaceuticals, LLC 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 6 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 5 Feb 2020. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Feb 2020). 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?

Skin Irritation Score (time frame: Daily for 21 days). 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 5 Feb 2020.
