About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Antidandruff Effect of a Shampoo on Subjects With Dandruff and Slight Itching. Single-blind, Monocentric Study Realized Under Dermatological Control

The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in the scalp lipids and TEWL in dandruff subjects treated by 1% Selenium Disulfide (SeS2)/1% salicylic acid-based shampoo after an antidandruff treatment and after a remanence phase

Read the detailed description

Dandruf often has a substantial negative impact on quality of life. The proliferation of Malassezia specie has been shown to be linked to dandruff. Yet, the sebum is essential for the growth of Malassezia restricta.

The sebum is mainly constituted by waxes, squalene and triglycerides. The triglycerides are partially transformed in free fatty acids while the squalene can be oxidized. Therefore, the change in lipids can be of interest for dandruff studies.

The scalp barrier function of a dandruff scalp is known to be altered and must recover after an antidandruff treatment

The aim of this study is to investigate the change of the scalp lipids and TEWL after a 1% selenium disulfide and 1% salicylic acid antidandruff shampoo on dandruff scalp and after a remanence period

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the change of squame quantity during the antidandruff treatment

    squame level clinical scoring evaluation (adherent squame, non-adherent squame and total squame).

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Evaluate the change in scalp barrier function and lipids (glycerides, free fatty acids, squalene and peroxidized squalene) after the antidandruff treatment

    Trans epidermal barrier by instrumental evaluation and lipids by chromatography

    Measured: 1 month

  2. Evaluation of the scalp barrier function

    The evaluation of the scalp barrier function was done by Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL) measurement.

    Measured: 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study of Dandruff, run by L'Oreal at 1 site in France.

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 7 inclusion and 22 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Aug 2022. 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Philippe MASSIOT, pHD (0660992467 ext. +33, philippe.massiot@rd.loreal.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluate the change of squame quantity during the antidandruff treatment (time frame: 1 month). 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 17 Aug 2022.
