Brief Summary
The initial focus of the study will be on safety, sun protection factor (SPF) characterization, and substantivity (duration of protection) studies. The primary outcome of the study will be to measure the sun protection factor (SPF) of a bioadhesive nanoparticles (BNP) formulation in 20-25 healthy volunteers with fair skin.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Skin Reaction
Skin reaction will be assessed by exam. The exam will look for evidence of irritation, inflammation, follicular occlusion. In addition, patients will report any skin reaction at site of application over one week. Severity of the skin reactions will be assessed in the following manner: severe reactions will include evidence of edema or blister formation, follicular pustules and/or marked erythema and pruritus.
1 week
Study Arms (4)
UV Filter + BNP
EXPERIMENTALA UV filtering agent and bioadhesive nanoparticles (BNPs) will comprise the experimental condition in this study. Participants will have 5 sites on their torso where they will have these placed.
BNP only
SHAM COMPARATORA placebo bioadhesive nanoparticles (BNPs) (strips with no UV filtering) will comprise the sham comparison in this study. Participants will have 5 sites on their torso where they will have these placed.
Standard
ACTIVE COMPARATORAs the active comparator, participants will have 5 sites on their torso where they will have standard sunscreen applied.
Control
NO INTERVENTIONParticipants will have 5 sites on their torso where no agent will be applied.
Interventions
Areas will be treated with a standard preparation, consisting of padimate O (7%) and oxybenzone (3%) will be used as the control sunscreen.
Additional areas will be treated with empty bioadhesive nanoparticles (BNPs).
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Subjects must be in good health with minimal skin irregularities, as evaluated by a physical examination.
- The physical examination shall determine the presence of sunburn, suntan, scars, active dermal lesions, and uneven skin tones on the areas of the back to be tested. The presence of nevi, blemishes, or moles will be acceptable if in the physician's judgment they will not interfere with the study results. Excess hair on the back is acceptable if the hair is clipped or shaved.
- Subjects must fall into one of the following 3 Fitzpatrick Skin Scale categories:
- Always burns easily; never tans (sensitive)
- Always burns easily; tans minimally (sensitive)
- Burns moderately; tans gradually (light brown) (normal)
You may not qualify if:
- Volunteers cannot have a history of skin cancer (such as basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, or melanoma).
- Volunteers cannot have a history of skin disease (such as psoriasis, exema, or vitiligo).
