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.

Interventions

  • OtherInvestigational Serum, Standard Cleanser

    Mode of Group Serum application : On-site single use Standard cleanser + Investigational Serum (random half-face) \[FLA #2039128 50\] \- subjects should wash face with standard cleanser \[FLA #730457 36\] on site before measurements. The technician will apply the Investigational Serum \[FLA #2039128 50\] on the subject's half face (according to the Annex 11.6) at the test site, keep another half face as blank control.

  • DeviceInfrared Light for Redness Induction on Face

    Infrared light has high radiation frequency, its permeability is strong, the wavelength of infrared light can penetrate the human dermis to promote blood circulation and induce skin redness.The redness induction process will be done after baseline measurements for each subject.The subject's face was exposed at a distance of 20cm from infrared lamp for minimum 5 - 10 minutes at a temperature of 30-40°C and a wavelength of 760-5000 nm. In general, the skin will not be burned during the induction process. Due to individual differences, if the subjects cannot tolerate or feel uncomfortable during the process, the investigators will stop the process according to the situation; If there is any burn during the process, the on-site dermatologist will treat it in time, and the subject needs to follow the dermatologist's advice for follow-up treatment. Infrared light type: PHILIPS, IR250 RH IR2, 230-250V, 250W, wave length 760-5000nm, T 30\~40°C

Ran from Apr 2024 to primary completion in Apr 2024, 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 Jul 10, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
