About this study

It will be developed and evaluated the antihistamine potential of a gel containing alpha-bisabolol. Method: Interventional and cross-sectional study, with convenience sampling, conducted with 20 volunteers. The forearm will be sensitized at four points (A, B, C and D). Point A: positive control will be sensitized with a drop of histamine at a concentration of 10 mg / Ml. Point B: histamine will apply and immediately after, the alpha bisabolol gel with a concentration of 0.5%. Point C: histamine and gel with 2.5% alpha-bisabolol will apply. Point D will be sensitized with a drop of histamine and 5.0% alpha-bisabolol gel. The test reading at each point will occur 15 minutes after the procedure. For the analysis of the results, the T Test will be applied.

Read the detailed description

Context:. Phytotherapy has been widely used to treat health with a prophylactic, curative and palliative purpose due to its easy access and low cost when compared to other available drug forms. Some plant species have antiallergic and anti-inflammatory properties that can be used to help contain signs and damage in allergic reactions, triggered mainly by histamine such as: pain, redness, heat and edema. Alpha-bisabolol, extracted from Candeia, has several applications in the treatment of illnesses, however, there are no studies on the therapeutic potential for antihistamine. Objective: To develop and evaluate the antihistamine potential of a gel containing alpha-bisabolol. Method: Pilot study, interventional, cross-sectional study, with convenience sampling, conducted with 20 volunteers. The forearm will be sensitized at four points (A, B, C and D). Point A: positive control sensitized with a drop of histamine at a concentration of 10 mg / Ml. Point B: histamine will be applied and immediately after, the alpha bisabolol gel with a concentration of 0.5%. Point C: histamine and gel with 2.5% alpha-bisabolol will be applied. Point D will be sensitized with a drop of histamine and 5.0% alpha-bisabolol gel. The test reading at each point will occur 15 minutes after the procedure. For the analysis of the results, the T Test will be applied.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measure of the area (cm2) sensitized with histamine only

    Positive control sensitized with a drop of histamine at a concentration of 10 mg / Ml, and after 15 minutes the area sensitized will be measure

    Measured: 15 minutes

  2. Measure of the area (cm2) sensitized by histamine treated with 0,5% Alpha bisabolol

    Histamine will be applied and immediately after, the alpha bisabolol gel with a concentration of 0.5%, and after 15 minutes the area sensitized will be measure

    Measured: 15 minutes

  3. Measure of the area sensitized by histamine treated with 2,5% Alpha bisabolol

    Histamine will be applied and immediately after, the alpha bisabolol gel with a concentration of 2,5% will applied, and after 15 minutes the area sensitized will be measure

    Measured: 15 minutes

  4. Measure of the area (cm2) sensitized by histamine treated with 5% Alpha bisabolol

    It will be sensitized with a drop of histamine and immediately with 5.0% alpha-bisabolol gel, and after 15 minutes the area sensitized will be measure

    Measured: 15 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Alpha bisabolol gel in people with Wounds and Injuries, run by Universidade do Vale do Sapucai 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 1 inclusion and 2 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 31 Aug 2021. 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.

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?

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?

Measure of the area (cm2) sensitized with histamine only (time frame: 15 minutes). The study lists 4 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 31 Aug 2021.
