Low Dose Exposure to Oxidized R-limonene - A Repeated Open Application Test (ROAT) Study

April 9, 2018 updated by: Niels Højsager Bennike, Herlev and Gentofte Hospital

Low Dose Exposure to Oxidized R-limonene - A Double Blinded Vehicle Controlled Repeated Open Application Test (ROAT) Study

This study evaluates the clinical and molecular effect of daily exposure to low doses of the fragrance contact allergen oxidized R-limonene. Three groups of participants are included: 1) Patients with a previous positive patch test to oxidized R-Limonene, 2) patients with a previous doubtful patch test to oxidized R-limonene and 3) healthy controls with no contact allergy to oxidized R-limonene

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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.

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

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

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 and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

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: Fragrance allergic patients
Patients with a previous positive patch test to oxidized R-Limonene. Patients will have an initial patch test dilution series with oxidized R-limonene performed on the back followed by twice daily exposure to oxidized R-limonene at three different concentrations and a vehicle control on the forearms for up to three weeks.
Other: ROAT with oxidized R-limonene at 1%, 0.3% and 0.1%
A twice daily repeated open application test (ROAT) study for up to three weeks of exposure to oxidized R-limonene at 1%, 0.3% and 0.1% concentrations
EXPERIMENTAL: Possible fragrance allergic patients
Patients with a previous doubtful patch test to oxidized R-limonene. Patients will have an initial patch test dilution series with oxidized R-limonene performed on the back followed by twice daily exposure to oxidized R-limonene at three different concentrations and a vehicle control on the forearms for up to three weeks.
Other: ROAT with oxidized R-limonene at 1%, 0.3% and 0.1%
A twice daily repeated open application test (ROAT) study for up to three weeks of exposure to oxidized R-limonene at 1%, 0.3% and 0.1% concentrations
EXPERIMENTAL: Healty controls
Healthy controls with no contact allergy to oxidized R-limonene. Healthy controls will have en initial diagnostic patch test with oxidized R-limonene performed followed by twice daily exposure to oxidized R-limonene at one concentration and a vehicle control on the forearms for up to three weeks.

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
Positive ROAT (minimum score of 5)
Time Frame: Day (D) 21
Proportion (%) of participants with a positive ROAT
Day (D) 21

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
Minimal eliciting concentration (MEC)
Time Frame: Day (D) 7
Threshold concentration for a positive patch test
Day (D) 7

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Epidermal inflammatory markers
Time Frame: Positive ROAT or Day (D) 21
Levels of inflammatory markers (e.g. IL-1beta) from tape stripping of ROAT test areas
