Evaluation of the Effects of the Product RV5075A-MF6793 in Diabetic Patients Presenting Foot Xerosis and Superficial Fissures, an Exploratory Study.
This exploratory study is meant to assess the efficacy of a product in diabetic patients presenting foot xerosis and superficial fissures This exploratory study will be conducted as randomized, comparative study in parallel groups. In order to perform this clinical study, 60 female/male subjects, aged between 18 and 75 years old, with controlled type 1 or 2 diabetes and presenting foot xerosis and superficial fissures, are enrolled.
The subjects are randomly divided in two groups, (Group I or Group II), where one group applies the test product and another group applies comparative product.
The subjects apply the investigational/comparator products to both feet, twice a day, in the mornings and evenings, for 28 consecutive days.
3 visits are planned :
* Visit 1: Inclusion (D1) * Visit 2: Intermediate visit (D5 ±2) * Visit 3: End-of-study visit (D28 ±2)

Primary outcomes
-
Xerosis intensity on both feet with XAS (Xerosis Assessment Scale)
Time frame: Before (Day 1 Visit 1), and after 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
Evaluation performed by the investigator, giving 1 XAS score for both feet/patient (9 points scale, from 0 = Normal skin, to 8 =Skin with deep fissures).
-
Evolution of superficial fissures intensity on both feet with VAS (Visual Analog Scale)
Time frame: After 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application compared to baseline (Day 1, Visit 1)
Evaluation performed by the investigator, giving 1 VAS score for both feet/patient (continuous sliding scale from 0 mm = no repair/no improvement to 100 mm = complete repair/full improvement).
-
Evolution of superficial fissures intensity on a target fissure with VAS (Visual Analog Scale)
Time frame: After 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application compared to baseline (Day 1, Visit 1)
Evaluation performed by the investigator specifically on the target fissure identified at the inclusion visit, on VAS (continuous sliding scale from 0 mm = no repair/no improvement to 100 mm = complete repair/full improvement).
-
Quality of Life evaluation by the patient
Time frame: Before (Day 1, Visit 1), and after 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
Filling by the patient of a 13-questions questionnaire about their quality of life related to their feet condition.
-
Global soothing effect evaluation on feet
Time frame: After the first application (Day 1, Visit 1), and after 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
The global soothing is assessed by each subject using a VAS (continuous sliding scale from 0 mm = no relief/no soothing effect to 100 mm = complete relief/total soothing effect)
-
Intensity of pruritus/itchiness on feet
Time frame: Before (Day 1, Visit 1) and immediately after the first application (Day 1, Visit 1), and after 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
The evolution of pruritus intensity on feet is assessed by each subject using a VAS (continuous sliding scale from 0 mm = no itching or pruritus at all, to 100 mm = extreme itching, unbearable)
-
Intensity of tingling on feet
Time frame: Before (Day 1, Visit 1) and immediately after the first application (Day 1, Visit 1), and after 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
The evolution of tingling intensity on feet is assessed by each subject using a VAS (continuous sliding scale from 0 mm = no tingling sensation, to 100 mm = intense tingling, very uncomfortable)
-
Intensity of tightness on feet
Time frame: Before (Day 1, Visit 1) and immediately after the first application (Day 1, Visit 1), and after 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
The evolution of tightness intensity on feet is assessed by each subject using a VAS (continuous sliding scale from 0 mm = no tightness at all, to 100 mm = extreme tightness, uncomfortable)
-
Intensity of pain on feet
Time frame: Before (Day 1, Visit 1) and immediately after the first application (Day 1, Visit 1), and after 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
The evolution of pain intensity on feet is assessed by each subject using a VAS (continuous sliding scale from 0 mm = no pain at all, to 100 mm = extreme pain, debilitating)
-
Skin hydration
Time frame: Before (Day 1, Visit 1) and after 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
Skin capacitance is assessed instrumentally by an expert, on the selected foot of each subject
-
Standardized photographs of the target fissure of each subject to visually assess the evolution of the target fissure.
Time frame: Before (Day 1, Visit 1) and after 5 (Visit 2) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
-
Cosmetic satisfaction and perceived effect evaluation questionnaire
Time frame: After the first application (Day 1, Visit 1), and after 5 (Visit 2), 15 (at home) and 28 (Visit 3) consecutive days of products' application
Filling by the patient of a subjective evaluation questionnaire considering their cosmetic acceptability, and perceived efficacy towards the investigational/comparator product
-
