What is being measured

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

  1. Microbial Community Diversity for Children

    Swabs will be collected from the volar forearm, forehead and cheek for analysis based on the Shannon Index

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Microbial Community Diversity for Adults

    swabs will be collected from the volar forearm, forehead and cheek for analysis based on the Shannon Index

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Microbial Community Richness for Children

    swabs will be collected from the skin for analysis to determine the total number of different bacterial taxa detected

    Measured: Day 1

  3. Microbial Community Richness for Adults

    swabs will be collected from the volar forearm, forehead and cheek for analysis to determine the total number of different bacterial taxa detected

    Measured: Day 1

  4. Skin Barrier Function

    Trans Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) will be used to assess the skin barrier function

    Measured: Day 1

  5. Skin pH

    skin pH will be assessed by pH meter

    Measured: Day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy Volunteers, run by Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc. (J&JCI) 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 5 inclusion and 1 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 26 Mar 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 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?

Microbial Community Diversity for Children (time frame: Day 1). 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 26 Mar 2019.
