What is being measured

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

  1. Pain Score Using a 10-cm Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for Pain (0 = no Pain, 10 = Very Severe Pain)

    Assessment of whether a statistically significant reduction in pain score in the Radiesse® Mixed with Lidocaine nasolabial fold was observed when compared to the Radiesse® without Lidocaine nasolabial fold using a 10-cm visual analog pain scale (0 = no pain, 10 = very severe pain).

    In the study protocol, the assessment of achieving a statistically significant reduction in pain at time zero was selected a priori to be analyzed using a paired t-test to test the null hypothesis that the mean of the differences in VAS scores between the Treatment and Control folds is equal to zero.

    Measured: Immediately after injection (Time 0)

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Number of Participants With a Clinically Meaningful Reduction in Pain As Defined by a ≥ 2.0-cm Reduction in VAS

    In this split-face study, a clinically meaningful difference in pain was defined as a 2-cm "reduction" (i.e., subject reports at least 2-cm less pain on a 10-cm VAS) in the Radiesse® Mixed with Lidocaine NLF when compared to the Radiesse® without Lidocaine NLF.

    Measured: Immediately after injection (Time 0)

  2. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Pain Score 15 Minutes Post Injection

    A 10-cm VAS (with 21 total circles, marked at 0.5 cm intervals) was used in which 0 = no pain and 10 = very severe pain.

    Measured: 15 minutes post injection

  3. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Pain Score 30 Minutes Post Injection

    A 10-cm VAS (with 21 total circles, marked at 0.5 cm intervals) was used in which 0 = no pain and 10 = very severe pain.

    Measured: 30 minutes post injection

  4. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Pain Score 45 Minutes Post Injection

    A 10-cm VAS (with 21 total circles, marked at 0.5 cm intervals) was used in which 0 = no pain and 10 = very severe pain.

    Measured: 45 minutes post injection

  5. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Pain Score 60 Minutes Post Injection

    A 10-cm VAS (with 21 total circles, marked at 0.5 cm intervals) was used in which 0 = no pain and 10 = very severe pain.

    Measured: 60 minutes post injection

  6. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Pain Score 1 Week Post Injection

    A 10-cm VAS (with 21 total circles, marked at 0.5 cm intervals) was used in which 0 = no pain and 10 = very severe pain.

    Measured: 1 week post injection

  7. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Pain Score 2 Weeks Post Injection

    A 10-cm VAS (with 21 total circles, marked at 0.5 cm intervals) was used in which 0 = no pain and 10 = very severe pain.

    Measured: 2 weeks post injection

  8. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Pain Score 4 Weeks Post Injection

    A 10-cm VAS (with 21 total circles, marked at 0.5 cm intervals) was used in which 0 = no pain and 10 = very severe pain.

    Measured: 4 weeks post injection

  9. Assess Subject Preference to Pain

    2 questions were asked of 101 subjects: 1) Was one treatment less painful than the other? and 2) Was the difference in pain levels significant enough to affect your preference for one treatment over the other?

    Only those participants responding "yes" to these 2 questions about pain and preference for treatment are reported in the table below.

    Measured: Immediately after injection (Time 0)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Radiesse® Injectable Dermal Filler with Lidocaine and Radiesse® Injectable Dermal Filler without Lidocaine in people with Nasolabial Folds, run by Merz North America, Inc. at 2 sites in Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Canada. 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?

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?

Pain Score Using a 10-cm Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for Pain (0 = no Pain, 10 = Very Severe Pain) (time frame: Immediately after injection (Time 0)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01069354, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
