Trial summary

To date measuring the effect of dermocosmetic products on the main identified factors of aging and alteration of the skin barrier is based on invasive and expensive experiments. Electrochemistry enables to measure a specific signal for a substance of interest e.g. Vitamin C using an surface contact with an electrode. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study Assessing the Feasibility and Reliability of Measurements of Skin's Parameters Hydration by Electrochemistry

To date measuring the effect of dermocosmetic products on the main identified factors of aging and alteration of the skin barrier is based on invasive and expensive experiments. Electrochemistry enables to measure a specific signal for a substance of interest e.g. Vitamin C using an surface contact with an electrode.

Therefore, this study will evaluate the reliability and feasibility of measurements of skin's hydration parameters such as NMF and squalene using electrochemistry. These study will be made on three groups of individuals with different skin types: dry skin i.e. atopic dermatitis patients, oily skin i.e. acne skin and a control group of individual without facial dermatosis. Collects of parameters of interest will be made by using patch using electrochemistry (contact with an electrode and potentiostat to detect an electric signal) . It is a simple method that relies on a sensor / electrode pair that allows a study of the surface molecules of the skin. Application in the measurement of vitamin C in food products has already been validated.

On a second hand, a collect by chromatography of the parameters of interest will be carried out in order to compare the new method with the reference method.

This procedure has been developed via a procedure including collecting surface parameters using a patch an developping special electrodes and miniaturized detecting signal tool (potentiostat)

What is being measured

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

  1. Feasibility of collecting an electrochemical measure of skin hydration parameter (natural moisturizer factor electric signal) at two different sites of the face at T0 using patch and electrode

    Feasibility of collecting an electrochemical measure of skin hydration parameter (natural moisturizer factor electric signal) at two different sites of the face at T0 using patch and electrode. Signal detection (mVolt) or not using a patch to collect skin surface parameter applied on an electrode to collect and electric signal.

    Measured: Day 0 or Day 1

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Validation of the measure process for different skin type e.g: dry, oily, normal

    Rate of failure by site or skin type, obtained measure mean and SD for all and regarding each group

    Measured: Day 0 or Day 1

  2. Determine the correlation between electrochemistry measures or skin hydration (level of electrical signal mvolt ) and reference method: corneometry or chromatography.

    Those two methods are routinely used to asses skin hydration using a swab contact then migration in a chromatography column or use of sebumeter Correlation coefficient between level of electrochemical measure (signal) regarding skin types and measures issued from reference methodology (corneometry or chromatography)

    Measured: Day 0 or Day 1

  3. Describe individuals' habits or daily routine for skin care using a questionnairemethodology (corneometry or chromatography)

    Descriptive statistics: smoke, sun exposure, moisturizer use

    Measured: Day 0 or Day 1

Model description
This study will include sixty subjects separate into three groups of twenty subjects based on the skin disease: acne, atopic dermatitis and a group control. This is a study validating the feasibility of a measure collected by a tool at the prototype stage with a view to pre-industrialization. The following process is: Measurement by patches and sensors of substances of interest on 2 areas of the face separated by the midline (forehead / cheek). Collection on the skin surface by 2 swabs repeated on 2 areas
Masking
None (open label)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Collects of skin's hydration in people with Atopic Dermatitis and Acne, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris 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 5 inclusion and 3 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 18 Oct 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 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 Tu Anh Duong, MD PhD (01 49 09 44 29 ext. + 33, tu-anh.duong@aphp.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Feasibility of collecting an electrochemical measure of skin hydration parameter (natural moisturizer factor electric signal) at two different sites of the face at T0 using patch and electrode (time frame: Day 0 or Day 1). 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 18 Oct 2021.
