Neo-Synalar Modified 48 Hour Patch Test

November 5, 2015 updated by: Noah Rosenberg, MD

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.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

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.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 79 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Experimental: Patch Test Group

All subjects are patched with the following: 1.Neo-Synalar Cream 2.Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and 3. Saline.

Test material is applied to the absorbent pad and allowed to remain in direct skin contact for a period of 48 hours.
Drug: Neo-Synalar 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.
Other Names:
  • NS 0.5%(0.35% neomycin base)/ FA 0.025% Cream
Other: Sodium Lauryl Sulfate Aqueous Solution (0.40%)
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.
Other Names:
  • SLS
Other: Saline
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 the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Evidence of Pre-Existing Sensitization by Use of the Erythemal Scoring Scale (ESS)
Time Frame: 48, 96 and 168 Hours
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.
