Detailed description
This is an open-label, single-arm, randomized, evaluator-blinded repeat insult patch testing (RIPT) study wherein test product is applied under an occlusive dressing to the upper back or arm continuously and repeatedly to the same site for a period of 21 days. Three concentrations of PBI-100 Topical Cream and vehicle (placebo cream) will be applied to the skin of each subject. In addition, one site will be treated with a positive control and another site will be treated with a plain cotton cloth patch and will serve as a negative control.
Interventions
A dose of approximately 560 ug (approximately 0.4 mL of each of the three concentrations to 3 different sites) of PBI-100 was applied daily (excluding weekends) to the skin test sites.
Approximately 0.4 mL of 0.25% SLS was applied daily (excluding weekends) as a positive control test site.
Approximately 0.4 mL of 0% placebo cream was applied daily (excluding weekends) as a positive control test site.
A blank patch was applied daily (excluding weekends) as a negative control test site.
