What is being measured

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

  1. AUC of the skin hydration assessed of treatment with the test product compared to untreated

    AUC: Area under the curve

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. AUC of the short term skin hydration

    Comparison of the test product to untreated

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Skin hydration by measuring skin capacitance assessed by Corneometry (unit: a.u.)

    Comparison of the test product to untreated based on differences to Baseline as well as the comparison to Baseline

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

  3. Skin hydration after treatment by measuring skin capacitance assessed by Corneometry (unit: a.u.)

    a.u.: arbitrary units

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

  4. Skin pH

    Comparison of the test product to untreated based on the differences to Baseline

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

  5. Transepidermal water loss

    Comparison of the test product to untreated based on differences to Baseline for SDS (Sodium dodecyl sulfate) unchallenged and SDS challenged skin

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

  6. Stratum corneum thickness assessed by Raman Spectrometry (unit: µm)

    Comparison of the test product to untreated

    Measured: Up to 8 hours

  7. Water gradient within stratum corneum assessed by Raman Spectrometry

    Comparison of the test product to untreated

    Measured: Up to 8 hours

  8. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs)

    Measured: Up to 4 weeks

  9. Compliance check

    The diaries will be collected and checked for compliance and completeness of the daily record

    Measured: Day 29

  10. Water content within stratum corneum assessed by Raman Spectrometry (unit: %)

    Comparison of the test product to untreated

    Measured: Up to 8 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BAY987534 in people with Dermatitis, Atopic, run by Bayer 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 12 inclusion and 21 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 4 Sep 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 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.

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?

AUC of the skin hydration assessed of treatment with the test product compared to untreated (time frame: Up to 4 weeks). 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 4 Sep 2019.
