Clinical-Instrumental Study To Evaluate And Compare The Efficacy And Tolerability Of Two Emollients Products In Atopic Dermatitis

April 8, 2025 updated by: NAOS Les Laboratoires

Clinical-Instrumental Study To Evaluate And Compare The Efficacy And Tolerability Of Two Emollients Products (Investigational Product Versus Placebo) In Atopic Dermatitis

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease associated with erythema, scaly and oozing plaques, and severe pruritus which has an important impact on quality of life and quality of sleep. It is divided into 2 chronic phases : flare-up and remission period.

Signs and symptoms of AD are associated with a compromised immune system, a defective skin barrier, a cutaneous dysbiosis and overall inflammatory status.

The aim of the study is to evaluate and compare the efficacy and tolerability of two face and body cream products, new emollient versus placebo, in used over the course of 5 weeks as a replacement of usual or any emollient by female and male subjects with atopic dermatitis.

This is an interventional, single-center, double-blind, randomized and comparative study.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
SCORAD (SCOring Atopic Dermatisis)
Time Frame: Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10+28 (+/- 48 hours)
SCORAD (SCOring Atopic Dermatisis). The SCORAD (Scoring Atopic Dermatitis) scale ranges from a minimum score of 0 to a maximum score of 103, where higher scores indicate a worse outcome, reflecting more severe atopic dermatitis.
Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10+28 (+/- 48 hours)
EASI (Eczema Area and Severity Index)
Time Frame: Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10+28 (+/- 48 hours)
EASI (Eczema Area and Severity Index). The EASI (Eczema Area and Severity Index) ranges from 0 to 72, where higher scores indicate more severe atopic dermatitis, with 0 meaning no eczema and 72 representing the most severe form.
Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10+28 (+/- 48 hours)
Transepidermal water loss by Vapometer®
Time Frame: Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10+28 (+/- 48 hours)
Transepidermal water loss by Vapometer® (on a defined AD lesion and on non-lesional area to the forearm))
Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10+28 (+/- 48 hours)
Samplings of the cutaneous microbiota
Time Frame: Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10+28 (+/- 48 hours)
Samplings of the cutaneous microbiota on one or two defined AD lesion. If the subject presents 2 AD lesions, 2 microbiota samples will be done.
Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10+28 (+/- 48 hours)
Filling of a DLQI questionnaires by participants
Time Frame: Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10 + 28 (+/- 48hours)
The DLQI (Dermatology Life Quality Index) ranges from 0 to 30, with higher scores indicating a greater impact of skin disease on quality of life. A score of 0-1 suggests no effect, while 30 indicates maximum impact.
Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10 + 28 (+/- 48hours)
Sleep quality by questionnaire (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) filled in by participants
Time Frame: Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10 + 28 (+/- 48hours)
The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating poorer sleep quality. A score above 5 suggests poor sleep, while a score of 0 indicates good sleep quality.
Day 0, Day 5 to Day 10, Day 5 to Day 10 + 28 (+/- 48hours)
