What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of a cosmetic cream designed for children with very dry, irritated skin, specifically those suffering from atopic dermatitis. It is a multicentric, double-blind, randomized study that includes two groups: one receiving the cream and the other a placebo. Participants will undergo five visits over a 120-day period to assess skin hydration, barrier function, pH levels, and overall quality of life. The study will take place in Argentina and India, enrolling a total of 100 patients aged 6 months to 15 years.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly improve the skin condition and quality of life for children suffering from atopic dermatitis.

How similar studies have gone: While there have been studies on topical treatments for atopic dermatitis, this specific approach using a cosmetic cream is relatively novel.
