Standard TDS Irritation Study: Trained Skin Grader vs. Digital Imaging (TDS_TSG_DI)

October 6, 2017 updated by: SRI International
The purpose of this study is to (1) collect trained observer scores and digital images of skin irritated by generic and RLD Lidocaine 5% delivered via TDS, and (2) assess performance of an automated system for predicting scores directly from the digital images

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

Subjects will be screened prior to dosing to ensure subjects meet all inclusion exclusion criteria. The test materials will be tested simultaneously. Skin sites on the paraspinal region will be utilized for application. The test sites will be randomized among the individual subjects according to their assigned identification number. All patches will be applied and removed by the laboratory staff.

Due to safety concerns, it is not recommended to simultaneously apply two whole, active, Lidocaine Patch 5% patches on the same subject during the 21-day period. The optimum design of this study will depend on the design of the test product patch. Since the RLD has a matrix design that can be safely cut, one-fourth of the patch can be used for these studies. If the test product patch also has a design that can be cut to a smaller size, it should also be cut in one-fourth and one-fourth of the test product patch applied simultaneously with one-fourth of a RLD patch (to separate skin sites).

Each test article will be applied to sites on the skin for a contact period of approximately 24 hours (+/-1 hr.), with the exception of the weekend (72 hours, +/- 1 hr.). There will be no visits during the weekend.

Evaluations will be made after removal of every patch by a single trained grader along with a single digital imaging instrument. Re-applications will be made to the same test sites unless reactions become so strong (combination of a number and letter grade of 3) as to make this unadvisable, at which point patch application will be discontinued for that test article.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

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 65 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Males and Females, age [18-65 years old or 18 years or older]
  • Signed informed consent
  • Good general health

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subject is pregnant or lactating.
  • Medical history of condition that would significantly influence the immune response (e.g., primary or acquired immunodeficiencies, such as HIV positive or AIDS, allergic diseases, such as anaphylaxis, asthma or generalized drug reaction, neoplasms, such as lymphoma or leukemia, rheumatoid arthritis, or systemic lupus erythematosus).
  • Medical history of significant dermatologic diseases or conditions, such as atopy, psoriasis, vitiligo or conditions known to alter skin appearance or physiologic response (e.g. diabetes, porphyria).
  • History of significant dermatologic cancers (e.g. melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma), except basal cell carcinomas that were superficial and did not involve the investigative site.
  • Medical history of hepatic disease
  • Within three weeks prior to dosing, use of medications or treatments that would significantly influence or exaggerate responses to the test product or that would alter inflammatory or immune response to the product (e.g. cyclosporine, tacrolimus, systemic or topical corticosteroids, cytotoxic drugs, immune globulin,
  • Bacillus Calmette-Guerin, monoclonal antibodies, radiation therapy).
  • Within 72 hours prior to dosing, use of antihistamines or use of topical drugs at patch site.
  • Subject has an obvious difference in skin color between arms or the presence of a skin condition, excessive hair at the application sites, scar tissue, tattoo, or coloration that would interfere with placement of test articles, skin assessment, or reactions to drug.
  • Presence of open sores at the application site.

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
Assessing Accuracy of Berger & Bowman Dermal Response Scores Predicted from Images of Skin
Time Frame: 3 months
The accuracy of the image analysis system will be assessed on a test set of skin images by analyzing the results of an 8x8 confusion matrix, where the ground truth labels are the scores on the 8-point Berger & Bowman Dermal Response Scale assigned by trained observers, and the classification results are the predicted Berger & Bowman Dermal Response scores from the image analysis system. Accuracy is defined as the number of predicted scores within 1 grade of the ground truth scores, divided by the total number of samples in the test set.
3 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Assessing Non-Inferiority of Generic Lidocaine 5% TDS from Images of Skin
Time Frame: 3 months
As a baseline, the non-inferiority of generic vs RLD Lidocaine will first be determined using trained observer scores in the image test set using the method described in "Draft Guidance on Lidocaine" (Rev. Jan 2016), namely that the upper bound of the one-sided 95% confidence interval of the mean test product score minus 1.25 times the mean RLD score must be less than or equal to 0. Then, this same method will be used on the predicted scores in the image test set, and the determination will be compared to the baseline.
