About this study

Official title: A Modified 48 Hour Patch Test of Neo-Synalar Cream, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (Positive Control) and Saline (Negative Control)

A 48 hour patch test performed in healthy volunteers to determine the presensitization (pre-existing allergy) of Neo-Synalar (neomycin sulfate 0.5%(0.35% neomycin base), fluocinolone acetonide 0.025%) Cream . Subjects also receive a positive control (Sodium Lauryl Sulfate) and a negative control (Saline).

The primary objective of this study is to determine if any subjects exhibit an allergic reaction which may be indicative of a pre-existing sensitization.

Read the detailed description

Following approximately 48 hours of continuous skin contact, the patch units and test material are removed at the testing facility. The test sites are evaluated for a significant reaction according to the ESS (Erythemal Scoring Scale).

The test sites are also re-evaluated at 96 and 168 hours post-application (for late reaction) using the ESS.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Neo-Synalar CreamDrug

    Also called NS 0.5%(0.35% neomycin base)/ FA 0.025% Cream

    Approximately 0.2 g of test material is applied to the absorbent pad portion of a semi-occlusive dressing and applied as received to the upper back between the scapulae. The patches are applied to a designated treatment site and allowed to remain in direct skin contact for a period of 48 hours.

  • Sodium Lauryl Sulfate Aqueous Solution (0.40%)Other

    Also called SLS

    Approximately 0.2 ml of the positive , 0.40% aqueous solution of sodium lauryl sulfate is applied to the absorbent pad portion of a semi-occlusive dressing and applied as received to the upper back between the scapulae. The patches are applied to a designated treatment site and allowed to remain in direct skin contact for a period of 48 hours.

  • SalineOther

    Saline is applied to the absorbent pad portion of a semi-occlusive dressing and applied as received to the upper back between the scapulae. The patches are applied to a designated treatment site and allowed to remain in direct skin contact for a period of 48 hours.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evidence of Pre-Existing Sensitization by Use of the Erythemal Scoring Scale (ESS)

    ESS is measured at 48, 96 and 168 hours post-application of study material. The Erythemal Scoring Scale (ESS) is defined as a 6 point scale (0-4). "0"= no visible erythema; "0.5"= slight, barely perceptible erythema; "1"= mild erythema; "2"= moderate erythema; "3"= marked erythema; "4"= severe erythema. An ESS score of 1 or greater that persists or worsens from one visit to the next is defined as pre-existing sensitization.

    Measured: 48, 96 and 168 Hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Neo-Synalar Cream, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate Aqueous Solution (0.40%) and Saline in people with Allergy, run by Noah Rosenberg, MD 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 7 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 11 Dec 2015. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 11 Dec 2015). 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?

Evidence of Pre-Existing Sensitization by Use of the Erythemal Scoring Scale (ESS) (time frame: 48, 96 and 168 Hours). 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 11 Dec 2015.
