Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 64 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • age: 18 to 64 years
  • good state of health
  • written informed consent, after having been informed about benefits and potential risks of the clinical trial, as well as details of the insurance taken out to cover the participants enrolled in the clinical trial

Who cannot join

  • any injury of body which may induce the restriction of body movement
  • excessively hairy skin at application site
  • current or anamnestic known skin disorder (e.g., atopic dermatitis (eczema), neurodermatitis, contact allergy, psoriasis, vitiligo, melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma) or shaving hair at application site, which might interfere with the safety or tolerability of the active ingredient
  • history of excessive sweating/hyperhidrosis inclusive of application site
  • participation in a clinical study within 30 days before inclusion in the study or concomitantly
  • drug or alcohol abuse in the opinion of the investigator
Show all 29Show fewer
  • pregnant and lactating women
  • women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) who do not agree to apply highly effective contraceptive methods
  • Surgical sterilization
  • Hormonal contraception: combined (estrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception, e.g., oral, intravaginal, transdermal, and progestogen-only hormonal contraception e.g. oral, injectable, implantable as well as intrauterine device (IUD) and intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS) each in combination with male condom to increase safety effect (double barrier method))
  • Bilateral tubal occlusion
  • Total abstinence throughout the study at the discretion of the Investigator
  • Periodic abstinence is not an acceptable method of contraception. An acceptable method of contraception must be maintained throughout the study.
  • A woman who is post-menopausal and not surgically sterile must have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening but will not need to comply with an acceptable method of contraception. Women are considered post-menopausal and not of childbearing potential if they had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g., age appropriate, history of vasomotor symptoms) or six months of spontaneous amenorrhea with serum FSH levels > 40 mIU/mL or had surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy) at least six weeks ago. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman had been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment.
  • known hypersensitivity to Esflurbiprofen, R-flurbiprofen or one of the excipients of the EFTS
  • existing cardiac and/or hematological diseases or pathological findings, which might interfere with the safety or tolerability of the active ingredient
  • existing hepatic and/or renal diseases or pathological findings, which might interfere with the safety or tolerability of the active ingredient
  • known liver or kidney insufficiency
  • existing gastrointestinal diseases or pathological findings, which might interfere with the safety or tolerability of the active ingredient
  • history of relevant CNS and/or psychiatric disorders and/or currently treated CNS and/or psychiatric disorders
  • systolic blood pressure < 90 or > 139 mmHg
  • diastolic blood pressure < 60 or > 89 mmHg
  • pulse rate < 50 bpm or > 90 bpm
  • ECG assessment by investigator: "conspicuous"
  • participants who use any impermissible treatment or for whom restrictions apply
  • subject is vulnerable such as detained or committed to an institution by a court of law or by legal authorities or close affiliation with the sponsor or the investigational site (e.g., a close relative of the investigator, dependent person (e.g., employee of or student at the investigational site), employee of the sponsor or affiliates)
  • subjects who have experienced asthma, urticaria, or allergic-type reactions after taking aspirin or other NSAIDs
  • subject with known bronchial asthma from previous history
  • Laboratory values are out of normal range

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Esflurbiprofen Topical System in people with Healthy Participants, run by Teikoku Seiyaku Co., Ltd. at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 inclusion and 29 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 27 Aug 2026. 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 Germany. 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?

Characterization of the patch adhesion (time frame: Day 1 to Day 4). 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 Aug 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
