Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Subjects with signs of facial contour deficiencies in the area of the nasolabial folds [nasolabial fold scores greater than or equal to 2 (bilaterally) on the Dermik Nasolabial Photo-numeric Scale.

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects must sign a statement of informed consent.
  • Subjects must be 18-75 years of age, of any race or gender.
  • Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test prior to the first treatment with the product and must use an acceptable form of birth control throughout the study (e.g., oral/systemic contraceptives, an intrauterine device (IUD) or Norplant starting at least 28 days prior to study entry and throughout the study).
  • Subjects must display signs of facial contour deficiencies in the area of the nasolabial folds [nasolabial fold scores greater than or equal to 2 (bilaterally) on the Dermik Nasolabial Photo-numeric Scale.
  • Subjects must be a suitable candidate for SCULPTRA treatment.
  • Subjects must be able to understand the requirements of the study and be willing to comply with the study requirements

Who cannot join

  • Subjects with an allergy to any of the constituents of the product.
  • Subjects with a known history of keloids or bleeding disorders.
  • Subjects of childbearing potential who are pregnant, or plan to become pregnant within the study timeframe, or who are nursing.
  • Subjects with significant facial hair (e.g. mustaches, beards, etc.)
  • Subjects with an active inflammatory process or infection in the area to be treated (skin eruptions such as cysts, pimples, rashes, cancerous/pre-cancerous lesions, or any other active skin disease in the treatment area).
  • Subjects who plan to undergo major facial surgery [e.g., rhinoplasty (with or without implant), facelift, congenital defect repair, etc.] during the course of the study.
  • Subjects who have used or plan to use exclusionary medications/treatments.

About this study

Official title: A Single-Center, Open-Label, Exploratory Study of the Volumizing Effect of Sculptra (Poly-L-lactic Acid) Measured by Three Dimensional Digital Surface Imaging

  • Measure the mid-facial volumetric correction from SCULPTRA treatment, using three-dimensional digital surface imaging
  • Determine the mean change from baseline in facial contour deficiency as measured by the Dermik Nasolabial Photo-numeric Scale
  • Correlate volumetric correction with clinical improvement as measured by the Dermik Nasolabial Photo-numeric Scale
  • Correlate the mean volumetric change in mid-facial treatment area with the amount of product used
  • Evaluate subject and investigator global assessment of improvement and subject treatment satisfaction at the end of treatment
  • Obtain photographs pre- and post-treatment for the purpose of providing a subject visual aid during the course of treatment
  • Collect safety data

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mid Facial Contour Deficiencies, run by Bausch Health Americas, Inc. at 1 site in United Kingdom.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measure the mid-facial volumetric correction from SCULPTRA treatment, using three-dimensional digital surface imaging. (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Sep 2019.
