| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic performance and safety of a fragrance allergen proposed for inclusion in a T.R.U.E. Test Panel. Specifically, we propose a single-center, double-blind, randomized study comparing the diagnostic performance (primary) and safety (secondary) of ascending doses of Lyral® in 20 adult subjects who have a clinical history of contact dermatitis and have tested positive (current or previous patch test) to Lyral® or Fragrance Mix 2. To ascertain the optimal test allergen dose by determining the lowest concentration eliciting either +1 or +2 positive reactions in 70-90% of sensitive subjects; frequency of positive, negative, doubtful and irritant reactions for each allergen and concentration; and overall concordance and discordance as compared to the reference petrolatum allergens. ;Secondary Objective: To evaluate the frequency of irritation, late/persistent reactions, tape reactions, subject-reported itching or burning, and adverse events for each allergen dose.;Primary end point(s): To ascertain the optimal test allergen dose by determining the lowest concentration eliciting either +1 or +2 positive reactions in 70-90% of sensitive subjects; frequency of positive, negative, doubtful and irritant reactions for each allergen and concentration; and overall concordance and discordance as compared to the reference petrolatum allergens. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: All patch test panels will be removed after two days and test site skin reactions will be evaluated at least four times. The chosen evaluation times are consistent with generally accepted patch test guidelines and are designed to prevent missed late reactions and false negatives. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): To evaluate the frequency of irritation, late/persistent reactions, tape reactions, subject-reported itching or burning, and adverse events for each allergen dose.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Irritation will be evaluated on Day 2, 20 minutes following patch removal. Late and/or persistent reactions are reported on Days 7(+1) and 21(±2). Subjects will be asked about itching and burning at patch removal and about changes in medications or medical condition at each visit. | — |
