Study summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the tolerance and efficacy of a new emollient cream specifically dedicated to the eyelid area when applied in association with tacrolimus 0.1% in subjects suffering from eyelid Atopic Dermatitis.

Read the detailed description

This study is conducted as a single-center, intra-individual, split-face, randomized study to evaluate the tolerance and efficacy of the tested e applied in combination with a topical calcineurin inhibitor (TCI) - tacrolimus 0.1% - in adult subjects suffering from an eyelid atopic dermatitis (AD). Eyelids are randomized to receive either twice-daily topical calcineurin inhibitor alone or a combination of twice-daily topical calcineurin inhibitor and the tested emollient. A total of 33 adult subjects are enrolled. Assessments are performed at Day 1, Day 3, Day 5, Day 8, and Day 15.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

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.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    topical calcineurin inhibitor + tested eyelid balm

    Subjects receive the tested eyelid balm on one randomized eyelid for 2 weeks, in combination with twice-daily tacrolimus 0.1% initiated 24 hours prior to study inclusion.

    Other: Tested Emollient RV5258A · Other: tacrolimus 0.1%

  • Active comparator
    topical calcineurin inhibitor alone.

    Subjects receive twice-daily applications of tacrolimus 0.1% (topical calcineurin inhibitor, TCI, initiated 24 hours prior to study inclusion) on the contralateral eyelid for 2 weeks

    Other: tacrolimus 0.1%

Interventions

  • OtherTested Emollient RV5258A

    Topical application of the investigational eye contour emollient on one randomized eyelid over a 2-week treatment period

  • Othertacrolimus 0.1%

    Twice-daily topical application of tacrolimus 0.1% initiated 24 hours prior to study inclusion and continued over a 2-week treatment period. Tacrolimus 0.1% is considered an out-of-protocol concomitant treatment.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in Functional Sign : Pruritus

    Evolution of pruritus self-assessed by the subject using a Numerical Rating Scale (NRS, 0-10; 0 = no symptom, 10 = worst imaginable symptom) on the investigational emollient eyelid area compared to the topical calcineurin inhibitor-only eyelid area

    Time frame: Change from Visit 1 (Day 1 - before application), to 15 minutes after first product application ( Day 1, Time+15 min), Day 2 (home), Visit 2 (Day 3), Day 4 (home), Visit 3 (Day 5), Day 6 (home), Day 7 (home), Visit 4 (Day 8), and Visit 5 (Day 15)

  2. Change in Functional Sign : Discomfort

    Evolution of discomfort self-assessed by the subject using a Numerical Rating Scale (NRS, 0-10; 0 = no symptom, 10 = worst imaginable symptom) on the investigational emollient eyelid area compared to the topical calcineurin inhibitor-only eyelid area

    Time frame: Change from Visit 1 (Day 1 - before application), to 15 minutes after first product application ( Day 1, Time+15 min), Day 2 (home), Visit 2 (Day 3), Day 4 (home), Visit 3 (Day 5), Day 6 (home), Day 7 (home), Visit 4 (Day 8), and Visit 5 (Day 15)
