Detailed Description

Intertrigo is an inflammatory dermatosis involving body folds that develops through friction of skin to skin and is influenced by moist conditions. The prevalence of intertrigo was reported to be 2.5% for adults with an average age of 41.5 years. Prevalence of intertrigo in the large skin folds varies from 6% in hospital patients to 17% in nursing home clients and 20% in home care patients. The inframammary fold was most often affected (9.9%), followed by the inguinal region (9.4%), axilla (0.5%) and abdominal region (0.5%). Intertrigo may be mild and asymptomatic, but also may lead to intense erythema and desquamation. The affected skin may have a foul odor and may be macerated and ulcerated with copious or purulent discharge. The conventional therapy for simple intertrigo is minimizing moisture and friction. Some suggest the use of absorptive powders, such as talc and cornstarch, or barrier creams. These topical treatments such as topical steroid, however, have little or no proven benefit and may cause irritation or facilitate yeast colonization. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of liquid powder containing tapioca starch stimutex AS, aloe barbadensis, rose hip oil and allantoin comparing with topical 1% hydrocortisone cream of mild to moderate intertrigo patients.

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

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

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
Efficacy of liquid powder containing tapioca starch stimutex AS, aloe barbadensis, rose hip oil and allantoin, compared to topical 1% hydrocortisone cream for the treatment of intertrigo.
Time Frame: 2 weeks
Efficacy was evaluated by the number of patients with improvement in erythema scores on intertrigo lesion after treatment which were assessed by the patients and the same investigator. Erythema scores were recorded using a 4-point scale (0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe) on intertrigo lesion at baseline and week 2.
2 weeks

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
Side effects of liquid powder containing tapioca starch stimutex AS, aloe barbadensis, rose hip oil and allantoin, compared to topical 1% hydrocortisone cream for the treatment of intertrigo.
Time Frame: 2 weeks
Side effects were calculated by the percentage of patients developed any side effects such as dryness, scaling, atrophy, and telangiectasia at week 2.
2 weeks
Patients' satisfction of liquid powder containing tapioca starch stimutex AS, aloe barbadensis, rose hip oil and allantoin, compared to topical 1% hydrocortisone cream for the treatment of intertrigo.
Time Frame: 2 weeks
Satisfaction was measured on intertrigo lesion at the end of study visit by patients using visual analog scales (VAS). The minimum score is 0 (no satisfied) and the maximum score is 10 (most satisfied).
