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

This study consists of Screening, Treatment Period, and Follow-up. The Treatment Period is subdivided into three periods (Periods 1 to 3). Screening will start within 4 weeks before starting Treatment Period 1. In Treatment Periods 1 and 2, one E2022 tape will be applied to the designated site. The Treatment Period 2 application must have at least a 17-day interval from the end of Treatment Period 1 application. In Treatment Period 3, E2022 tape will be applied to back site (contralateral to the first applied site during Treatment Periods 1 and 2) after at least 17 days from the end of Treatment Period 2 (removing). A new E2022 tape will be applied to the same site after the specified intervals from the end of previous application (removing) in each group. Follow-up will start after at least a 17-day interval from the end of re-application in the Treatment Period 3 (removing).

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.
