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

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

26 years to 76 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

  • Dry skin subjects with symmetrical distribution of forearm flexion diagnosed by a doctor.
  • Those who are 30-80 years old, male or female.
  • Those with good compliance who can not use other external drugs during the entire observation period.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Those who do not sign the informed consent.

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: CeraVe Moisturising Lotion
Drug: Ceramides
On the 0th day, it is determined that one of the leg extensions of the participant is the test side using CeraVe Moisturising Lotion and the opposite side is the control side using Half Mu ceramide body milk by the random table. Participants are required to use the product in the morning and evening according to the "Product Use Procedures", during which other moisturizing products or emollients are prohibited. And the follow-up tests are conducted at the prescribed time. At each visit, empty packaging of products used during this period must be collected; if they are not used up as required, the remaining products must be collected.

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
Self-assessment from patients
Time Frame: 17 days
The patients fill out questionnaires and score erythema, desquamation, dryness, itching, and cleft palate on both sides of the calves (0 = none, 1 = light, 2 = medium, 3 = severe).
17 days

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
The loss of transdermal water
Time Frame: 0 day, 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 17 days
The percutaneous water loss value of the test site is measured continuously in an open chamber with Tewameter (TM300, Courage and Khazaka, Germany), and the measurement is performed 3 times continuously. The average value is taken after the value is stable.
0 day, 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 17 days
Cuticle moisture
Time Frame: 0 day, 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 17 days
The water content in the stratum corneum of the test site is measured 5 times with Corneometer (CM825, Course and Khazaka, Germany) and the average value is taken.
0 day, 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, 17 days

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
