Details on study design:
TYPE OF TEST(S) USED: Repeated Insult Patch Test (Protocol No. 1.01)

ADMINISTRATION
- Type of application: occlusive
- Vehicle / solvent: unchanged (no vehicle)
- Concentrations: 0.2 mL of the test material

Methodology: The upper back between the scapulae served as the treatment area. Approximately 0.2 mL of the test material, or an amount sufficient to coverthe contact surface, was applied to the 3/4" x 3/4" absorbent bad portion of an adhesive dressing. This was then applied to the appropriate treatment site to form an occlussive patch.

- Induction phase:
Patches were applied three per week for a total of nine applications. The site was marked to ensure the continuity of patch application. Following supervised removal and scoring of the first Induction patch, participants were instructed to remove all subsequent Induction patches at home, twenty-four hours after application. The evaluation of this site was made again just prior to re-application. If a participant was unable to report for an assigned test day, one makeup day was permitted. This day was added to the Induction period.

-Challenge Phase:
Approximately two weeks after the final Induction patch application, a Challenge patch was applied to a virgin test site adjacent to the original Induction patch site, following the same procedure described for Induction. The patch was removed and the site scored at the clinic twenty-four and seventy-two hours post-application. Should an invidual have exhibited a response during this test phase, a Rechallenge Patch Test would have been scheduled to confirm the previously recorded reaction.

Results and discussion

Results of examinations:
With one exception, observations remained within normal limits throughout the test interval. It was noted that one subject exhibited a moderate to mild response with dryness and edema twenty-four, seventy-two and ninety-six hours post-challenge application. This reactive subject was requested to return for follow-up (Rechallenge) investigation to better define the nature and respoducility of the response.
Rechallenge results:
Observations for all treated areas remained negative throughout this test interval.
