Study population

Subjects will be recruited from the investigation centre's panel. They will be selected on the basis of inclusion and non inclusion criteria specific to the study and on their ability to comply with the constraints required by the protocol. They will be definitely included in the study after a specific interview and a clinical examination.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Phototype: from I to VI.
  • Sun Exposure: Adults anticipating at least 6 exposures of 2 hours each during the study.
  • Swimming Sessions: Subjects planning at least 4 swimming sessions, with a minimum of 50% intending to swim twice in the sea and twice in a pool.
  • Sensitive Skin: At least 50% of subjects report having sensitive skin.
  • Health Insurance: Must be registered with health social security or health insurance.
  • : Must have signed the written Informed Consent form (ICF) for study participation.
  • Personal Information: Must certify the accuracy of personal information provided to the Investigator.
  • Health Status: Considered a "healthy subject" by the Investigator (excluding SCORAD considerations).
  • Women of : Must agree to use an effective method throughout the study and for at least 1 month prior to the inclusion visit.

Criteria Related to Skin Condition:

  • Atopic Dermatitis: Subject must present atopic dermatitis according to the U.K Working Party's Diagnostic Criteria for Atopic Dermatitis, with mild atopic dermatitis indicated by a SCORAD score of 15 to 25 (inclusive), determined by a dermatologist.
  • Reactivity: Must be reactive to external irritative factors such as chlorine, sand, salt, and sweat.

Non-Inclusion Criteria:

Criteria Related to Population:

  • Subjects who have participated in another clinical trial within the week before the inclusion visit, or for a longer period if deemed necessary by the Investigator.
  • Subjects currently participating or planning to participate in another clinical trial during the study, either in the same or a different investigation center.

Criteria Related to Subject's Health:

  • Subjects experiencing a flare of atopic dermatitis.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women (for women of childbearing potential).
  • Subjects with dermatological conditions that may interfere with study data or are considered hazardous by the Investigator (e.g., pityriasis versicolor, severe pigmentation disorders such as vitiligo, melasma, multiple lentigines, numerous or large congenital nevi).
  • Subjects with a personal medical history that may interfere with study data or is incompatible with study requirements (except if required by the Sponsor, e.g., atopic dermatitis).
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(3)

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.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

    Other: Sunscreen RV4620A RP2552

Interventions

  • OtherSunscreen RV4620A RP2552

    Dermo-cosmetic product, Broadspectrum Sunscreen RV4620A RP2552, very high protection product Instructions for product use given to the subjects: Apply before and during sun exposure, at least twice daily. During sun exposure, applications must be renewed as often as necessary, in particular after swimming, perspiring, towelling, in order to ensure a good protection. On days of bad weather, apply the product in the morning and at the beginning of the afternoon.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Global tolerance assessment by the investigator

    Global tolerance of the product is assessed on the "tolerance population" which includes all the subjects who applied investigational product at least once. This assessment allows for attribution of one of the 5 levels : excellent, very good, good, moderate, bad.

    Time frame: At the end of the study, after Last Patient Out, (after Day 22)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Evaluation Cosmetic Acceptability of the Sunscreen RV4620A - RP2552

    The subjects answer a 10-questions questionnaire about user satisfaction, texture, and overall experience with the product, providing insights into its appeal and usability.

    Time frame: Visit 3 (Day 22)

  2. Evaluation of Irritative Factors with Sunscreen RV4620A - RP2552

    The subjects answer a questionnaire regarding the irritative factors

    Time frame: Visit 1 (Day 1, before investigational product application) and Visit 3 (Day 22)

  3. Evaluation of Transepidermal Water Loss with Sunscreen RV4620A - RP2552

    Trans Epidermal Water Loss measurements are done with a Tewameter TM 300® by a trained technician in a room with controlled temperature and hygrometry. This measurement aims to assess the effect of the investigational product on transepidermal water loss to determine the product's impact on the skin's barrier function.

    Time frame: Visit 1 (Day 1, before investigational product application) and Visit 3 (Day 22)

  4. Assessment of Skin pH with Sunscreen RV4620A - RP2552

    Measurement of the skin pH is done using the COURAGE \& KHAZAKA PH 900 PC Skin pH meter fitted with an Ingold electrode. The goal is to determine the product's respect of skin surface pH.

    Time frame: Visit 1 (Day 1, before investigational product application) and Visit 3 (Day 22)

  5. Assessment of the Lipidic Index Evolution with Sunscreen RV4620A - RP2552

    The quantity of sebum excreted to the skin surface is quantitatively evaluated with a Sebumeter SM 815 (Courage \& Khazaka). The goal is to determine the product's respect of skin's barrier function and seboregulating effect

    Time frame: Visit 1 (Day 1, before investigational product application) and Visit 3 (Day 22)

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 Oct 2023 to primary completion in Feb 2024, 3 months.

Of 74 industry-sponsored observational studies under Dermatitis, Atopic, half reached primary completion within 32 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 11 and three quarters within 84. This study's 3 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 170 studies reached it within 35 months; a quarter within 17.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

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 26, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
