Brief summary
To Check Dermatological Safety of Test Products by 24 Hours Patch Testing
Detailed description
This is single center, evaluator-blinded study in healthy adult human subjects. Single 24-hour application of sponsor(s) provided test products along with positive and negative controls will be kept in contact with the skin of subjects under occlusion \|Semi occlusion \|Open patch for at least 24 hours (+ 2 hours). Study can be conducted in multiple groups. Safety will be assessed throughout the study by monitoring of adverse events. Subject's back i.e. between the scapula and waist will be utilized as application sites. Application sites will be evaluated for scoring the reaction, namely, erythema, dryness, and wrinkles on a 0-4 point scale separately for each parameter and oedema on another 0-4 points scale as per the Draize Scale after 30+5 minutes of patch removal, 24±2 hours and 168±2 hours after patch removal.
Interventions
Dose: 1×1 cm of each Patch (1 cm2) Route of administration: Topical Mode of usage: Products will be evaluated through the complete occlusion for 24 hours. At 24 hours post-application, patches will be removed and skin will be evaluated for irritation reactions at 30 mins,24 hours (Day 1)post patch removal and 168 hours (Day 7) post-patch removal (if needed). Frequency: single application

Intervention model description
Each participant will receive Transdermal patches on the back, including the test product(s), a negative control (0.9% Saline), and a positive control (1% sodium lauryl sulfate). Reactions will be assessed at specified time intervals using a standardized Draize Scale

Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| To evaluate the dermatological safety of the test products | Post patch removal of 30 minutes, 24 hours & 168 hours | Application sites will be evaluated for scoring the reaction, namely, erythema, dryness, and wrinkles on a 0-4 point scale separately for each parameter and oedema as per draize scale |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Safety of the skin | At T30 minutes and 24 hours post patch removal. Scoring can be done at T168 hours post-patch removal if required. | To evaluate the Safety of the skin by visual dermatological assessment by 0: No reaction and 4 Severe Reaction |
