Trial summary

Wrinkles result from imperfect repair of the dermal layer resulting in loss of collagen commonly due to ageing, smoking and sun exposure. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) contains a host of growth factors, which have been used in other clinical trials for various medical conditions such as tendonitis, and also in surgery… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Study of Intradermal Injection of Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma for Facial Wrinkles

Wrinkles result from imperfect repair of the dermal layer resulting in loss of collagen commonly due to ageing, smoking and sun exposure. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) contains a host of growth factors, which have been used in other clinical trials for various medical conditions such as tendonitis, and also in surgery such as the surgical repair of facial defects. Results from these clinical trials suggest that PRP helps in collagen formation and organisation to promote healing of tissues. This study attempts to document the clinical effects of intradermal injection of PRP on wrinkles.

Read the detailed description

10 selected participants will have 10 ml of blood removed for platelet extraction with MyCells®. The resulting Platelet rich plasma will be injected intradermally into the facial wrinkles.

What participants receive

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

  • MyCells® (injection of platelet rich plasma)Device

    Also called MyCells autologous platelet preparation system

    PRP contains at least 1,000,000 platelets per mm3 or 2-6 times the native concentration of whole blood at a pH of 6.5 to 6.7

What is being measured

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

  1. Total Wrinkle Length

    All visible wrinkles are measured and the length is summed up to give the Total Wrinkle Length. Comparison of pre treatment and post treatment Total Wrinkle Length will be studied.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Side effect / Adverse Event

    Side Effects / Adverse Events to be monitored include allergic reaction, nerve injury and cavernous sinus thrombosis.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MyCells® (injection of platelet rich plasma) in people with Wrinkles, run by Novena Medical Center at 1 site in Singapore.

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 2 inclusion and 8 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Sep 2016. 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 Singapore. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Total Wrinkle Length (time frame: 3 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 26 Sep 2016.
