Tokyo, March 24 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000061015) titled 'A Study on Protective Agents for Preventing Dry Lips' on March 23.

Study Type: Interventional

Study Design: Basic Design - Parallel Randomization - Randomized Blinding - Double blind -all involved are blinded Control - Active

Primary Sponsor: Institute - Matsuyama University

Condition: Condition - Dry Lips Classification by malignancy - Others Genomic information - NO

Objective: Narrative objectives1 - Dry lips often occur as a side effect of cancer chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Currently, petroleum jelly is widely used to prevent dry lips; however, since the petroleum jelly base itself lacks moisturizing properties, it has been suggested that it may not be suitable for fundamentally preventing dryness. Therefore, as a preliminary study to identify a base suitable for preventing dry lips, this study examines the moisture content of the lips in healthy subjects after application of petroleum jelly and compares it with that observed after application of other protective agents.
