NCT03876639

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to I. determine the effect of repetitive application of newly developed silicone based formulations (placebo water-in-oil emulsions) on transepidermal water loss and other physiological skin parameters and II. investigate the skin penetration of the model drug fluorescein sodium in tape stripping studies to determine the in vivo penetration profile from the water-in-oil emulsions.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change in transepidermal water loss

    Influence of the application of the water-in-oil emulsions with different oil component - isopropyl myristate (IPM) or liquid paraffin (PAR) - on the transepidermal water loss (TEWL) using the AquaFlux Model AF200 Evaporimeter

    6 weeks

  • Penetrated amount of fluorescein sodium into the skin using tape stripping/fluorescence spectroscopy

    Enhancement of the skin penetration of the model drug fluorescein sodium by the oil component isopropyl myristate in vivo using tape stripping combined with fluorescence spectroscopy

    week 8
