Can a fingerprint sweat test resist everyday contaminants?
NCT ID NCT07758907
First seen Aug 11, 2026 · Last updated Aug 12, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial evaluates whether common substances on the skin, such as lotions or foods, interfere with a device that screens for drugs in fingerprint sweat. It also checks how well the device's collection cartridge holds up before and after use. About 95 participants will have substances applied to their fingers before providing samples, and results will be compared with lab tests to see if the system stays accurate.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Intelligent Fingerprinting Drug Screening System (a device that detects drugs in fingerprint sweat)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could confirm that the fingerprint-based drug test is reliable and unaffected by common substances, supporting its use in workplaces and clinics.
- What could go wrong
- The trial is early and small, and results may not reflect real-world conditions. Interferents could still affect accuracy, and the system's stability may vary.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Informed of the nature of the study, agreed to, and able to read, review, and sign the informed consent document prior to dosing. The informed consent document will be written in English; therefore, the subject must have the ability to read and communicate in English. 2. Completed the screening process within 60 days prior to dosing. Subjects screened as a part of an IRB-approved General Screening Protocol at the clinical research site may be included in this study without additional screening procedures provided all the required screening procedures have been performed within 60 days prior to dosing. 3. Healthy male and non-pregnant female subjects between ages 18 and 55, inclusive, at the time of dosing. 4. Body mass index (BMI) between 18.0 kg/m2 to 35.0 kg/m2, inclusive, and weigh at least 60 kg. 5. Judged by the Investigator and/or designee to be in good health as documented by the medical history, physical examination (including but may not be limited to an evaluation of the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, respiratory and central nervous systems), vital sign assessments along with oxygen saturation, 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), clinical laboratory assessments, and by general observations. Any abnormalities or deviations outside the normal ranges for any of clinical testing (laboratory tests, ECG, etc.) can be repeated at the discretion of the Investigator and/or designee and judged to be not clinically significant for study participation. Any abnormalities or deviations outside the normal range for vital signs can be repeated by clinical staff and judged to be not clinically significant for study participation. 6. Subjects with glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of greater than or equal to 60. Exclusion Criteria: 1. More than three digits absent from the hands due to congenital or accidental cause(s). 2. Reports receiving any investigational drug within 30 days prior to dosing. 3. Reports any personal history of substance abuse (including drug/alcohol abuse or addiction) or mental illness (e.g. major depression) within one year prior to screening visit. 4. Presence of any clinically significant results from laboratory tests, vital signs assessments, as judged by the Investigator. 5. Reports a clinically significant illness during the 30 days prior to dosing (as determined by the Investigator). 6. Reports a history of allergic response(s) to opiates or related drugs, or any of the interferents listed in Section 13 of the protocol. 7. Reports history of respiratory depression (e.g., sleep apnea). 8. Current severe hypotension (i.e., systolic blood pressure \<90 mmHg). 9. With the exception of the five smokers (study subjects 90-95, see Appendices A and B of the protocol), reports a history of tobacco use (smoking, chewing, vaping) within previous two weeks. 10. Report history/current condition of seizures, increased intracranial pressure, brain tumor, head injuries or impaired consciousness. 11. Reports known or suspected gastrointestinal obstruction including, paralytic ileus. 12. Unwilling to consume meals provided by the clinical site. 13. Demonstrates a positive pregnancy screen (females only). 14. Any subject for whom dosing with codeine sulfate as described in this protocol is contraindicated (see Section 9.3.2 and Appendix B of the protocol). 15. If, in the opinion of the Investigator, the subject is not suitable for the study.
