What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • SCULPTRA (poly-L-lactic acid injection)Device

    Subjects will be treated with SCULPTRA® according to the investigator's judgment, and in accordance with the SCULPTRA® package insert. Details of the exact amount and the time of administration of SCULPTRA® (date, amount, location) will be documented in the CRF at each protocol and non-protocol visit.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To evaluate, by Fitzpatrick skin type and by gender, long-term safety of Poly-L-Lactic acid injection(s) in human immunodeficiency virus subjects with facial lipoatrophy.

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Evaluate the incidence of hypertrophic scars or keloids in subjects by Fitzpatrick skin types IV-VI, assessed approximately 6 months after completion of treatment;

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Evaluate the severity, relationship, time to onset, duration, and resolution of adverse events (AEs) by Fitzpatrick skin type and gender; and

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Evaluate the Quality of Life (QOL) and body image benefit associated with the treatment of facial lipoatrophy.

    Measured: 5 years
