Study summary

Single-blind within subject comparison study conducted to investigate the skin protectant properties of Omeza Collagen Matrix on damaged skin

Read the detailed description

This study was conducted in 22 healthy subjects to determine the skin protectant and anti-inflammatory properties of the test product.

For the skin protectant assay the test article was applied to the forearm and covered with gauze for 10 minutes before assessment of irritation and TEWL readings.

An inflammatory skin response was induced by a SLS solution 24 hours prior to application of the test article. The test article was applied for 10 minutes at the site of inflammation. The test site was then graded for irritation and TEWL readings.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subject is a healthy male or female, aged 18 years or older.
  • Subject has signed a written .

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnancy or lactation.
  • Inadequate precaution or procedure to prevent pregnancy (women of child bearing potential only).
  • A current skin disease of any type at the test site (e.g. eczema, psoriasis)
  • Heavy alcohol consumption in the opinion of the investigator.
  • A fever in the last 12 hours, prior to the initial patch application.
  • Significant past medical history of hepatic, renal, cardiac, pulmonary, digestive, haematological, neurological, locomotor or psychiatric disease, which in the opinion of the Investigator would compromise the safety of the subject.
  • History of malignant disease.
  • Insulin dependent or non-insulin dependent diabetes.
  • Concurrent medication likely to affect the response to the test articles or confuse the results of the study, i.e. routine high dosage use of antiinflammatory drugs (aspirin, ibuprofen, ).
  • Known sensitivity to the treatment solutions or their constituents including patch materials.
  • Sensitisation or questionable sensitisation in a Repeat Insult Patch Test.
  • Use of self-tanning lotion on the test area, one week previous to the start of the study.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jun 2020 to primary completion in Jun 2020, 0 months.

Of 43 interventional studies with no phase under Erythema, half reached primary completion within 3 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 1 and three quarters within 11. This study's 0 months is below that.

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 Sep 30, 2022, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
