简要总结
This study is to determine the relative effects imparted by different medical tapes to skin when comparing normal skin to skin after ten repeated tape applications and removals.
详细描述
This study is to evaluate changes to skin after repeated tape stripping on volar forearm with various medical tapes. Assessments of effects to skin include corneocytes, total protein (BCA), Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL), and cytokine analysis.
The Study will involve the application of eight (8) test articles. In each case, the test articles will be applied to eight (8) sites on the healthy Subject's left and right volar forearms (four [4] sites on the left, and four [4] sites on the right) in a randomized fashion.

入选标准
- •Male and female ages 18-65 years.
- •Has sufficient area to fit five (5)1 inch by 2.5-inch sites on each volar forearm.
- •Agrees to have five (5) 1 inch by 2.5-inch test sites marked on each volar forearm with a non-toxic permanent marker (Sharpie).
- •Agrees to stop the use of all topical products (lotions, creams, oils, sunscreen, bug spray, etc.) on their volar forearms 3 days prior to the start of the study.
- •Agrees to not shower within 24 hours of their D1 visit.
- •Agrees to not wash volar forearms when washing hands within 24 hours of their D1 visit.
- •Agrees to refrain from exercising or drinking hot beverages or cold/iced coffee or tea (caffeinated or energy drinks) during the 2 hours prior to their D1 visit.
- •Agrees that if the study personnel feel that they have excessive hair on their volar forearm test sites that the hair may be clipped at the D1 visit.
- •Agrees to wear or be willing to change into a short-sleeved shirt or a shirt with sleeves that can be pulled or rolled above the elbows to each visit.
- •Able to read, understand, and sign the Informed Consent Form (ICF).

结局指标
主要结局
Chang in TEWL from skin after repeated tape stripping
时间窗: Immediately after 10 times of repeated tape application and removal
Measure change in Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL) from baseline to Tape 10 after repeated tape applications and removals. Baseline TEWL will be measured on another non-taped site.
Changes to skin after repeated tape stripping (total protein)
时间窗: After the removal of Tape 1 and after the removal of Tape 10
Analysis of total protein (BCA) in the skin cells removed by tape samples after repeated tape application and removal. The 1st tape and the 10th tape will be collected for analysis.
Changes to skin after repeated tape stripping (Cytokine)
时间窗: Immediately after TEWL measurement is completed on each test site
Analysis of cytokine in skin cells removed by tape samples after repeated tape application and removal. Cytokine tape collection will take place after the TEWL measurement is completed on each test site. Control cytokine tape will be collected from another non-taped site.
Changes to skin after repeated tape stripping (corneocytes)
时间窗: After the removal of Tape 1 and after the removal of Tape 10
Analysis of percentage area coverage of corneocytes on the tape samples removed from skin. The 1st tape and the 10th tape will be collected for analysis.
