Active clinical trials for "Dermatitis, Phototoxic"

The objective of the trial is to investigate skin irritation, phototoxicity and safety of LEO 90105 and its components by patchtest (48 hours closed patch test and photo patch test) in healthy Japanese male subjects.

This is a clinical study for health care product safety assessment. The research is going to conducted with 55 subjects, aged 18 to 70 years. The product is applied on the right and/or left participant back. After a wash out, the product is reapplied. Medical evaluation will be available throughout the study to assess possible adverse events. The main of the study is to observe the effects of the application of the product on the skin and prove the absence of irritability and/or allergy, photoallergy and phototoxicity.

This is a clinical study for health care product safety assessment. The research will be conducted with 40 subjects*, aged 18 to 70 years. The product will be applied on the right and/or left participant back for 3 consecutive weeks. After 10 days, will have another application of the same product, which will be removed in 24 hours. Medical evaluation will be available throughout the study to assess possible adverse events. The objective of the study is to observe the effects of the application of the product on the skin and prove the absence of photoallergy and phototoxicity. * 29 completed the trial

The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the potential for phototoxicity of the sun care products SPF 50 Y65 110, SPF 50 Y51 002, and SPF 15 V27 104 compared to that of a negative control (0.9% sodium chloride [NaCl]) after a single 24 h application of test materials followed by irradiation with ultraviolet A (UVA) and ultraviolet B (UVB). The secondary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety of the sun care products SPF 50 Y65 110, SPF 50 Y51 002, and SPF 15 V27 104 combined with UVA/B irradiation by monitoring adverse events (AEs) throughout the study.

This study will examine the phototoxicity, a reaction to light that is like exaggerated sunburn, which occurs in people who take medications such as voriconazole, a medication used to fight fungus. Sunscreens might protect the skin from the reaction. Although phototoxicity from voriconazole is not completely understood, it may be related to how that medication is metabolized in the liver by enzymes called cytochrome P450 enzymes-and mainly by one known as 2C19. A way to evaluate phototoxicity is through microarrays, which measure how much each gene is expressed in cells from tissues such as skin. Patients ages 8 and older who are scheduled to begin taking or who currently take voriconazole may be eligible for this study. Also, patients ages 18 to 45 in good health who have skin tone known as Type 2, which usually burns and tans only slightly following sun exposure, may be eligible. All patients will visit the Dermatology Clinic. They will complete two questionnaires, on medical history and medications, as well as the skin response to sunlight, and donate about 3 teaspoons of blood. Patients who are scheduled to take voriconazole will visit the clinic four times, that is, two visits 2 consecutive days before beginning the medication and two visits on 2 consecutive days after taking it for at least 7 days. Each visit will take 1 to 2 hours. Patients about to take voriconazole will have a blood test and undergo a physical exam of the skin test site, on the buttocks. Researchers will take photographs of the specific site and do tests to measure skin reaction to ultraviolet (UV) light. UV light will be shined on 15 small areas of the skin, each 1 x 1 centimeters. After 24 hours, any redness that occurs on the skin will be checked. Afterward, patients will begin taking voriconazole according to directions by the researchers. At 10 or more days later, patients will visit the clinic. Sunscreen will be applied and 1 hour later after administration of voriconazole, a blood sample will be drawn to check the level of medication. Then UV light will be shined on 23 areas of skin 1 x 1 centimeters. More photographs will be taken of test sites to record changes in skin redness. On the next day, the skin response will be evaluated. Participants in the control group will be asked to avoid UV radiation by wearing hats and clothing, and using sunscreen. They will be given the doxycycline, an antibiotic, and undergo procedures with UV light shined on small areas of the skin, on the buttocks. Control participants will have 7 study days, with visits lasting from 1 to 3 hours and probably not exceeding 8 hours. They will have two shave biopsies on Study Day 2 and on Study Day 7 to determine how the skin has responded to UV light exposures. ...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) uses a combination of a drug, porfimer sodium, and a light from a non heated laser. The activation of the drug is done by illuminating abnormal areas using a fiber optic device. The fiber optic device is a very fine fiber (like fishing line) that permits transmission of light. By itself, porfimer sodium is inactive. However it becomes active when it is put in the presence of a light source such as sunlight, very intense indoor light, or laser. Therefore, the main risk with this therapy is that the skin will be more sensitive to light, and this sensibility can last up to 90 days. The skin reaction is similar to sunburn and is called phototoxicity. To date, no product on the market has shown protection against visible light, and therefore, no product has been demonstrated to protect against the skin phototoxicity to visible light. A sunscreen sold under the brand name Solar Protection Formula® SPF 60 in the United States contains ingredients that provide maximum ultraviolet (UV) protection, as well as a formulation that could provide visible light protection. The product could potentially prevent the skin phototoxicity due to visible light, the most frequently reported side effect in patients receiving PDT with porfimer sodium. Therefore, this study is designed to assess the efficacy of topical application of Solar Protection Formula® SPF 60 as skin protector against visible light-induced skin redness and swelling following injection of porfimer sodium. It will involve 17 to 20 human subjects in the United States for whom PDT with porfimer sodium is planned for the treatment of high-grade dysplasia in Barrett's esophagus (pre-cancerous change in the food pipe tissue), lung cancer, or cancer of the esophagus (food pipe).
