(See Figure 1, at right.)6 With UVB radiation, it penetrates only into the stratum corneum and is almost fully absorbed before reaching the upper dermis. On the other hand, UVA readily penetrates into the mid-dermis.7 The many negative effects of UV radia- tion on the skin, including erythema, pho- toaging, carcinogenicity, and immunosup- pression, are exhibited in both UVB and UVA by damage to DNA. Until recently, the genotoxic damage caused by UVA radiation has been thought to be less than that caused by UVB.7 But new research has called this thinking into question. In a recent study using a highly accurate quantitative assay based on high-perform- ance liquid chromatography combined with mass spectrometry, investigators examined the type and yield of DNA damage in human skin samples exposed to UVA and UVB radiation.8 Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, commonly associated with UVB- induced DNA damage, were found in sub- stantial numbers in UVA-exposed skin as Figure 1.

Reg. 6204 (February 26, 2019). As a global science-based company active in Nutrition, Health and Sustainable Living, DSM is a world leading supplier of vitamins, feed, food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, personal care and aroma ingredients. In sunscreens, DSM is a leading world-wide provider of numerous UV filters, including Avobenzone. DSM takes human health and safety very seriously and believes that sunscreens are proven and effective interventions that help provide consumer protection against skin cancers and skin damage caused by the sun’s rays. DSM is committed to proactively supporting the safety and availability of existing and new sunscreen active ingredients that help protect public health. DSM requests that FDA modify its proposed rule taking into consideration the comments provided herein. 1. Background and Action Requested Skin cancer is a significant, and largely preventable, public health concern. Sunscreens have been widely and safely used by the general public for their photoprotective properties, including prevention of photocarcinogenesis and photoaging and management of photodermatoses for more than 40 years. FDA’s Sunscreen Monograph rule has identified the permitted active ingredients (UV-filters) for sunscreens since 1978.

  • FDA Proposes Sunscreen Regulation Changes February 2019
    FDA Proposes Sunscreen Regulation Changes February 2019 The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates sunscreens to ensure they meet safety and eectiveness standards. To improve the quality, safety, and eectiveness of sunscreens, FDA issued a proposed rule that describes updated proposed requirements for sunscreens. Given the recognized public health benets of sunscreen use, Americans should continue to use broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher with other sun protective measures as this important rulemaking eort moves forward. Highlights of FDA’s Proposals Sunscreen active ingredient safety and eectiveness Two ingredients (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide) are proposed to be safe and eective for sunscreen use and two (aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and trolamine salicylate) are 1 proposed as not safe and eective for sunscreen use. FDA proposes that it needs more safety information for the remaining 12 sunscreen ingredients (cinoxate, dioxybenzone, ensulizole, homosalate, meradimate, octinoxate, octisalate, octocrylene, padimate O, sulisobenzone, oxybenzone, avobenzone). New proposed sun protection factor Sunscreen dosage forms (SPF) and broad spectrum Sunscreen sprays, oils, lotions, creams, gels, butters, pastes, ointments, and sticks are requirements 2 proposed as safe and eective. FDA 3 • Raise the maximum proposed labeled SPF proposes that it needs more data for from SPF 50+ to SPF 60+ sunscreen powders. • Require any sunscreen SPF 15 or higher to be broad spectrum • Require for all broad spectrum products SPF 15 and above, as SPF increases, broad spectrum protection increases New proposed label requirements • Include alphabetical listing of active ingredients on the front panel • Require sunscreens with SPF below 15 to include “See Skin Cancer/Skin Aging alert” on the front panel 4 • Require font and placement changes to ensure SPF, broad spectrum, and water resistance statements stand out Sunscreen-insect repellent combination 5 products proposed not safe and eective www.fda.gov.
