Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The object of this study was to evaluate safety of cream containing sericin and turmeric in healthy volunteers.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: cream containing 2.5% sericin and 2%turmeric
  • Other: cream containing 5%sericin and 2%turmeric
  • Other: cream containing 10%sericin and 2%turmeric
  • Other: cream base
N/A

Detailed Description

There are 106 healthy volunteers in this study. Upper left arm is divided into 2 parts (2x2 cm) which are A and B area. Upper right arm is divided into 2 parts (2x2 cm) which are C and D area. Four area (A, B, C, and D) are randomized to receive cream containing 2.5% sericin and 2%turmeric, cream containing 5%sericin and 2%turmeric, cream containing 10%sericin and 2%turmeric, and cream base (Control group). Samples are applied 2 times/day for 6 days (Induction phase). Then, the volunteers will stop applying samples for 7 to 10 days (Free period). After that, Samples are applied 2 times/day for 3 days (Challenge phase). Erythema, melanin, humidity, transepidermal water loss, skin adverse reaction, and satisfaction are evaluated.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: cream containing 2.5% sericin and 2%turmeric

cream containing 2.5% sericin and 2%turmeric

Other: cream containing 2.5% sericin and 2%turmeric
Sample is applied 2 times/day for 6 days. Then, use of the sample is stopped for 7 to 10 days. After that, sample is applied 2 times/day for 3days.

Experimental: cream containing 5%sericin and 2%turmeric

cream containing 5% sericin and 2%turmeric

Other: cream containing 5%sericin and 2%turmeric
Sample is applied 2 times/day for 6 days. Then, use of the sample is stopped for 7 to 10 days. After that, sample is applied 2 times/day for 3days.

Experimental: cream containing 10%sericin and 2%turmeric

cream containing 10% sericin and 2%turmeric

Other: cream containing 10%sericin and 2%turmeric
Sample is applied 2 times/day for 6 days. Then, use of the sample is stopped for 7 to 10 days. After that, sample is applied 2 times/day for 3days.

Experimental: cream base

cream base without sericin and tumeric

Other: cream base
Sample is applied 2 times/day for 6 days. Then, use of the sample is stopped for 7 to 10 days. After that, sample is applied 2 times/day for 3days.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Erythema index [19 days]

    Measure by Cutometer. It represents inflammation. The value present in scale of erythema index (0 to 1000) (high value mean a worse outcome).

  2. Melanin index [19 days]

    Measure by Cutometer. It represents post-inflammatory reaction. The value present in scale of melanin index (0 to 1000) (high value mean a worse outcome).

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Humidity index [19 days]

    Measure by Cutometer. It represents skin humidity. The value present in scale of humidity index (0 to 1000) (high value mean a better outcome).

  2. Transepidermal water loss index [19 days]

    Measure by Cutometer. It represents skin water loss. The value present in scale of transepidermal water loss index (0 to 1000) (high value mean a worse outcome).

  3. Skin reaction [19 days]

    Found or not found

  4. Satisfaction of the volunteers [19 days]

    Measure by visual analogue scale (1 to 10 score means low satisfaction to high satisfaction)
