Study summary

Open clinical study to evaluate the soothing and re-epithelizing activity of a single application of two cometic formulations ("P926 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA VISO" and "P927 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA CORPO") on experimentally induced erythema by repeated tape stripping on the forearm (volar surface) of 20 healthy volunteers.

Study products activity was assessed in comparison to placebo ("P926P - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA VISO - PLACEBO") and versus untreated control area.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    LICHTENA DermAD

    Comparison within subjects of "P926 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA VISO" and "P927 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA CORPO" versus placebo and versus untreated control area. Study products were applied once, on experimentally induced erythema by repeated tape stripping on 4 different adjacent skin areas of the forearms (volar surface - 2 areas on each side)

    Other: P926 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA VISO · Other: P927 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA CORPO · Other: P926 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA VISO - PLACEBO · Other: Untreated control area

Interventions

  • OtherP926 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA VISO

    The study product was applied on a skin areas of about 14 cm2 of the forearm, defined turning on the right and left side in accordance with a randomization list, on which an erythema has been experimentally induced by repeated tape stripping.

  • OtherP927 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA CORPO

    The study product was applied on a skin areas of about 14 cm2 of the forearm, defined turning on the right and left side in accordance with a randomization list, on which an erythema has been experimentally induced by repeated tape stripping.

  • OtherP926 - LICHTENA DermAD CREMA VISO - PLACEBO

  • OtherUntreated control area

    Untreated skin area of about 14 cm2 of the forearm, defined turning on the right and left side in accordance with a randomization list, on which an erythema has been experimentally induced by repeated tape stripping.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline of skin erythema index

    The instrumental measurement of erythema is performed by the use of an optical densitometer (X-RITE 404)

    Time frame: Baseline (T0), 1 hour (T1h), 24 hours (T24h)

  2. Change from baseline of skin redness

    The instrumental measurement of skin redness is performed by the use of an optical colorimetry (Chroma Meter CR-200®)

    Time frame: Baseline (T0), 1 hour (T1h), 24 hours (T24h)

  3. Change from baseline of Transepidermal water loss (TEWL)

    The measurement of TEWL, performed by the use of Tewameter® TM300, allows to objectively monitor skin responses to cosmetic treatments. A shift from low-normal rates of TEWL to high levels is due to barrier disruption.

    Time frame: Baseline (T0), 1 hour (T1h), 24 hours (T24h)

  4. Change from baseline of Superficial skin hydration

    Skin electrical capacitance value is measured with Corneometer CM825

    Time frame: Baseline (T0), 1 hour (T1h), 24 hours (T24h)

  5. Change from baseline of deep skin hydration

    Tissue dielectric constant of deep skin layers is measured with MoistureMeterD

    Time frame: Baseline (T0), 1 hour (T1h), 24 hours (T24h)

  6. Change from baseline of Epicutaneous pH

    Surface cutaneous pH is measured with pH meter HI5221

    Time frame: Baseline (T0), 1 hour (T1h), 24 hours (T24h)

  7. Change from baseline of Surface microrelief's regularity

    Surface microrelief's regularity is performed on skin replicas images acquired by Primos compact portable

    Time frame: Baseline (T0), 1 hour (T1h), 24 hours (T24h)

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 27, 2018, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
