Conditions

Phototoxicity

Brief summary

This trial is a 4-day, randomized study to determine the phototoxic potential of MC2-01 Cream when topical application to healthy skin is followed by light exposure.

Detailed description

This study evaluates the potential of MC2-01 (CAL/BDP 0.005/0.042w/w%) Cream to cause a phototoxic reaction using a controlled photopatch test design. Because MC2-01 Cream is formulated for topical use and have shown to absorb light, it is necessary to determine the potential of this product to cause a phototoxic reaction after topical application and irradiation of the skin.

Interventions

DRUGMC2-01 Cream, irradiation

One application of MC2-01 Cream, followed by irradiation. Visual evaluation of application site using a visual scale that rated the degree of erythema, edema and other signs of cutaneous irritation

DRUGMC2-01 Cream, no irradiation

One application of MC2-01 Cream. Visual evaluation of application site using a visual scale that rated the degree of erythema, edema and other signs of cutaneous irritation

DRUGMC2-01 vehicle, irradiation

One application of MC2-01 vehicle, followed by irradiation. Visual evaluation of application site using a visual scale that rated the degree of erythema, edema and other signs of cutaneous irritation

DRUGMC2-01 vehicle, no irradiation

One application of MC2-01 vehicle. Visual evaluation of application site using a visual scale that rated the degree of erythema, edema and other signs of cutaneous irritation

DRUGControl, irradiation

Untreated, irradiated site. Visual evaluation of application site using a visual scale that rated the degree of erythema, edema and other signs of cutaneous irritation

Pre-assignment details

The study consist of a screening day + treatment period of 4 consecutive days. The study is a within-subject comparison study of MC2-01 cream and vehicle. The products were each applied to 2 sites; one was irradiated and other non-radiated. The irradiated and non-irradiated sites were compared to each other and with an untreated irradiated site.
