Conditions
Brief summary
To determine the in vivo bioequivalence of clobetasone butyrate cream to Eumovate cream using the ED50, D1 (Shorter dose duration reference listed drug calibrator) and D2 (Longer dose duration reference lised drug calibrator) results calculated in the pilot dose duration-response study (ACTRN12615000723583) using Eumovate cream.
Interventions
A multiple dose study design whereby each participant receives 10 mg (5mg/cm2) per site of the test formulation of clobetasone butyrate 0.5mg/g (0.05% w/w) cream and 10 mg (5mg/cm2) per site of the innovator formulation of clobetasone butyrate 0.5mg/g (0.05% w/w) cream. The intervention for this trial is the test formulation of 0.5mg/g (0.05%w/w) clobetasone butyrate cream.
Subjects will be healthy subjects who have shown a vasoconstriction response to a single dose of Eumovate cream.
The te
A multiple dose study design whereby each participant receives 10 mg (5mg/cm2) per site of the test formulation of clobetasone butyrate 0.5mg/g (0.05% w/w) cream and 10 mg (5mg/cm2) per site of the innovator formulation of clobetasone butyrate 0.5mg/g (0.05% w/w) cream. The intervention for this trial is the test formulation of 0.5mg/g (0.05%w/w) clobetasone butyrate cream. Subjects will be healthy subjects who have shown a vasoconstriction response to a single dose of Eumovate cream. The test and reference cream will be applied to pre-allocated sites at times determined from the pilot study results (ACTRN12615000723583) on the same day (no washout period). Based on the results of the pilot study the Reference cream will be applied to one site at 10.20am (D2), two sites at 11.40am (ED50) and one site at 12.20pm (D1) and the Test cream will be applied to two sites at 11.40 am (ED50), total of 6 treatment sites. The cream is then removed from all sites at 1.00pm and the Chromameter measurements for the pharmacodynamic responses of the topical corticosteroid will be carried out at 0, 2, 4, 6, 19 and 24 hours following removal. There will be 16 sites in total (8 on each arm whereby 6 sites will be treated with the test or reference cream and 2 sites will be untreated control sites). All application times will be recorded and checked in individual subjects Case Report Forms. Cream is applied by a trained staff member using pre-filled applicators. Subjects who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria will be included in this study. Pre and post study laboratory tests will be performed along with an ECG and medical evaluation. A follow up visit will also be completed to assess for safety.
