NCT ID NCT07194408
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested a broad-spectrum SPF50+ sunscreen on 22 children with mild-to-moderate atopic dermatitis (eczema). The goal was to see how well the children's skin tolerated the sunscreen when applied at least twice daily. Doctors rated tolerance as excellent, very good, good, moderate, or bad, and parents also gave feedback. The study is already completed, and results will show whether this sunscreen is a good option for kids with sensitive, eczema-prone skin.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Sunscreen (SPF50+, broad-spectrum)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a specific sunscreen is safe and well-tolerated for children with eczema, helping them protect their skin without irritation.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 22 children, so results may not apply to all kids with eczema. It only looked at tolerance, not whether the sunscreen prevents flares or sun damage.
