Trial Outcomes & Findings for A 4-Day Study to Evaluate the Photoxicity of Diacerein 1% Topical Ointment in Healthy Volunteers (NCT NCT03473184)

NCT ID: NCT03473184

Last Updated: 2020-02-10

Results Overview

The mean of the total irritation scores 24 and 48 hours post the site irradiation procedure. ( i.e. Day 3 and 4) Total Irritation Score is a visual score summing the degree of erythema and edema. Minimum score= 0; Maximum score = 5; higher score = worse outcome.

Measure
Single Cohort (Healthy Volunteers)
Diacerein 1% ointment and vehicle ointment were applied on Day 1 at two randomly assigned skin sites on each side of the lower thoracic area of the back according to a randomization scheme. One side of the back was irradiated on Day 2, including an untreated irradiated control site, and the other side was to remain non-irradiated.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Days 3 and 4 (24 and 48 hours post site irradiation procedure)

Population: 5 skin sites on each of 34 participants for a total of 170 skin sites evaluated.

The mean of the total irritation scores 24 and 48 hours post the site irradiation procedure. ( i.e. Day 3 and 4) Total Irritation Score is a visual score summing the degree of erythema and edema. Minimum score= 0; Maximum score = 5; higher score = worse outcome.
