May 4, 2026 updated by: Pierre Fabre Dermo Cosmetique

Open-label Study to Assess the Tolerance and Efficacy of the Product RV4421B-EV0407, Applied in Paediatric and Adult Populations With Mild to Moderate Atopic Dermatitis for 12 Weeks

Pierre Fabre Laboratories have developed a cream with medical device status, RV4421B-EV0407 indicated for the treatment of eczemas, including atopic eczema, contact eczema and chronic hand eczema.

This product is already marketed in several countries. The objective of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the study product when used alone or in association with topical corticosteroid therapy, in an ethnically diverse adult and pediatric population (including dark skin) and over a long period of time with a 12-week follow-up.

5 visits are planned:

  • Visit 1: Inclusion visit (Day 1)
  • Visit 2: Intermediate visit (Phone visit - Between Day 8 and Day 15)
  • Visit 3: Intermediate visit (Day 29 ± 3 days)
  • Visit 4: Intermediate visit (Day 57 ± 3 days)
  • Visit 5: End of study visit (Day 85 ± 3 days)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Local tolerance of the product RV4421B-EV0407 on studied areas
Time Frame: Day 85
The results of the local tolerance will take into account the clinical signs observed by the investigators and the signs reported by the subject and/or the subjects' parent(s) or guardian(s), based on a 5-point scale (From 1 = Excellent tolerance to 5 = Bad tolerance)
Day 85

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Local tolerance of the product RV4421B-EV0407 on studied areas at several timepoints
Time Frame: Day 1, 10 to 30 minutes after the first application, Day 29 & Day 57
using the same 5-point scale as the primary criterion and same rules.
Day 1, 10 to 30 minutes after the first application, Day 29 & Day 57
Recording of adverse events
Time Frame: From Day 1 to Day 85
At each visit, the occurrence of Adverse Events since the last visit will be determined by the subject's / parent(s) or guardian(s) spontaneous reporting, the investigator's non-leading questioning and his/her clinical evaluation. All AEs will be reported on the CRF
From Day 1 to Day 85
Local-SCORAD (SCORing Atopic Dermatitis)
Time Frame: Day 1, Day 29, Day 57 & Day 85

Local -SCORAD (SCORing Atopic Dermatitis) will be assessed by the investigator on target area (= area most representative of Atopic Dermatitis severity of the whole body) on a scale ranged from 0 to 15, at each visit (except the Visit 2).

Each of 5 objective signs of the SCORAD (Erythema, Oedema/papulation, Oozing/Crusts, Excoriation, and Lichenification) will be rated from 0 (absent) to 3 (severe) independently

Day 1, Day 29, Day 57 & Day 85
SCORAD (SCORing Atopic Dermatitis)
Time Frame: Day 1, Day 29, Day 57 & Day 85

SCORAD will be assessed by the investigator at each visit (except the Visit 2). The SCORAD is a scoring system based on the assessment of extent and intensity in a standardized manner. The complete system is called SCORAD index and takes into account the extent of the lesions, the severity of the clinical signs (objective signs) and the subjective symptoms (pruritus, sleep loss) reported on a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).

The extent of lesions is scored on an evaluation form. The intensity is determined by grading each of the six items on a scale from 0 to 3 (erythema, oedema/papulation, oozing/crusts, excoriation, lichenification and dryness). Each item should be scored on the most representative area for a given intensity item.

Day 1, Day 29, Day 57 & Day 85
IGA (Investigator's Global Assessment)
Time Frame: Day 1, Day 29, Day 57 & Day 85
IGA (Investigator's Global Assessment) will be assessed by the investigator on a 6-point scale ranged from 0 (= clear) to 5 (=very severe disease), at each visit (except the Visit 2).
Day 1, Day 29, Day 57 & Day 85
PO-SCORAD (Patient Oriented SCORing Atopic Dermatitis)
Time Frame: Every 2 weeks ± 2 days (or during the visit at site for sequences close to visit at site) from Day 1 to Day 85

PO-SCORAD (Patient Oriented SCORing Atopic Dermatitis) will be assessed by the subject / subject's parent(s) or guardian(s) every 2 weeks* from Day 1 to Day 85 (± 3 days) The PO-SCORAD index and each of its intensity items components will be assessed on a scale ranged from 0 to 3 (0=none; 1=mild; 2=moderate; 3=severe).

The PO-SCORAD is composed of 3 parts:

  • Part 1: Extent: Surface area of skin affected by eczema (drawing/colouring the infected area on a scheme)
  • Part 2 : Objective signs:

    • Evaluation on a 4-point scale (from 0 (=none) to 3(=severe) of the dryness of the skin without eczema
    • Evaluation on a 4-point scale (from 0 (=none) to 3(=severe) of the severity of the eczema: redness of the skin affected by eczema, swelling, oozing/crust, scratching and thickening
  • Part 3 : Subjective symptoms (evaluation of the sleep disturbance and the itching)
Every 2 weeks ± 2 days (or during the visit at site for sequences close to visit at site) from Day 1 to Day 85
SGA (Subject's Global Assessment)
Time Frame: Every 2 weeks ± 2 days (or during the visit at site for sequences close to visit at site) from Day 15 to Day 85
SGA (Subject's Global Assessment) will be assessed by the subject / subject's parent(s) or guardian(s) on a 5-point scale ranged from -2 (=Significant worsening) to +2 (=Significant improvement), every 2 weeks in comparison to Atopic Dermatitis intensity baseline: Day 1.
Every 2 weeks ± 2 days (or during the visit at site for sequences close to visit at site) from Day 15 to Day 85
Subject quality of life DLQI for subjects from 16 years
Time Frame: Every 4 weeks ± 2 days (or during the visit at site for sequences close to visit at site) from Day 29 to Day 85

Subject quality of life will be assessed by the subject by means of the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) questionnaire every 4 weeks

This questionnaire of quality of life is designed to be completed with a one-week recall period. It is calculated by summing the score of 10 questions, resulting in a maximum of 30 and a minimum of 0. The higher the score, the more quality of life is impaired.

Every 4 weeks ± 2 days (or during the visit at site for sequences close to visit at site) from Day 29 to Day 85

Subject quality of life will be assessed by the subject by means of the Infant Dermatology Quality of Life Index (IDQOL) questionnaire every 4 weeks

This questionnaire of quality of life is designed to be completed with a one-week recall period. It is calculated by summing the score of 10 questions, resulting in a maximum of 30 and a minimum of 0. The higher the score, the more quality of life is impaired.

Every 4 weeks ± 2 days (or during the visit at site for sequences close to visit at site) from Day 29 to Day 85

Time Frame: at Day 1 (10 to 30 minutes after the 1st product application), within 2 days before Day 29 or at Day 29 (± 3 days), within 2 days before Day 85 or at Day 85 (± 3 days)
Satisfaction as regards to the use of the test product will be assessed by the subject / subject's parent(s) or guardian(s) through a specific questionnaire.
