Brief Summary:
A unicentric, blind, non-comparative clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of a moisturizer in reducing clinical symptons of atopic dermatites in children through clinical, subjective and instrumental evaluations.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Atopic Dermatitis Other: Moisturizer containing saccharide isomerate and niacinamide Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

A unicentric, blind, non-comparative clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of a moisturizer in reducing clinical symptons of atopic skin dermatites in children through clinical, subjective and instrumental evaluations.

Participants will be divided into 2 groups - (Group 1) Microbiome analysis; and (Group 2) Acceptabily and efficacy

Group 1: It will be necessary 13 participants aged between 05 and 12 years old with historical of atopia

The participant will remain in the study for 30 days using the product. Visits will be scheduled in D0 and D30. On both visits, samples will be collect to quantify Staphylococcus aureus using qPCR

Group 2: It will be necessary 36 participants aged between 05 and 12 years old with historical of atopia

The participant will remain in the study for 60 days using the product. Visits will be scheduled in D0, D7, D30 and D60.

Instrumental evaluations: It will be evaluate on each visit:

Skin hidration using Corneometer - D0, D7, D30, D60 Transepidermic water loss using TEWL - D0, D7, D30, D60 Skin barrier restoration using Confocal Microscopy - D0, D30, D60

Participants will respond to a subjective assessment using a questionnaire to capture possible feelings of discomfort during the study e subjective efficiency.

A dermatologist will be available to monitor the participants throughout the study and respond a assessment of clinical efficiency.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Microbiome
13 participants using the product for 30 days. Aims to evaluate the quantification of S. Aureus in the skin before and after usage.
Other: Moisturizer containing saccharide isomerate and niacinamide
Moisturizer containing saccharide isomerate and niacinamide

Experimental: Clinical Trial
36 participants using the product for 60 days. Aims to evaluate the clinical, subjective and instrumental usage.
Other: Moisturizer containing saccharide isomerate and niacinamide
Moisturizer containing saccharide isomerate and niacinamide




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Acceptability in real conditions of use by questionnaire [ Time Frame: Day 60 ]
    Confirm in real conditions of use, the absence of risk and irritation and capture feelings of discomfort in the population studied (0 meaning no risk).

  2. Change of qPCR quantification of Staphylococcus aureus [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline (Day 0) and day 30 ]
    Evaluate the change in the skin microbiota by quantification of qPCR of Staphylococcus aureus in the skin before (D0) and after 30 (D30) days of continuous use of the product.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Clinical Evaluation through dermatological questionnaire [ Time Frame: Day 60 ]
    Evaluate the efficacy in reducing the signs of atopic dermatitis through dermatological clinical evaluation after 60 days of continuous use of the product

  2. Increase of skin hidration using instrumental evaluation - Corneometer [ Time Frame: Day 0, 7, 30 and 60 ]
    Evaluate the moisturizing efficacy immediately (D0) after application of the investigational product and after 7 (D7), 30 (D30) and 60 (D60) days of continuous use, through the Corneometer equipment®

  3. Evaluation of recovery of skin barrier through instrumental method - TEWL [ Time Frame: Day 7, 30 and 60 ]
    Evaluate the efficacy in the recovery of the skin barrier after 7 (D7), 30 (D30) and 60 (D60) days of continuous use of the product through the Tewameter equipment®

  4. Strengthening of the skin barrier [ Time Frame: Day 0, 30 and 60 ]
    Evaluate the strengthening of the skin barrier in D0 and after 30 (D30) and 60 (D60) days of continuous use of the product by confocal reflectance microscopy

  5. Subjective efficacy from the participants [ Time Frame: Day 0, 7, 30 and 60 ]
    Evaluate the perceived efficacy of the product from the participant's point of view through a subjective questionnaire immediately after the first application (Timed) and after 7 (D7), 30 (D30) and 60 (D60) days of continuous use of the product

  6. Improvement of Quality of Life [ Time Frame: Day 0, 7, 30 and 60 ]
    Evaluate the improvement of the quality of life of the atopic dermatitis carrier through a questionnaire on quality of life in D0 and after 30 and 60 days of continuous use of the product
