What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Effectiveness and Safety Success

    • Effectiveness success: an improvement in line severity in the target area in animation at 30 days post-treatment as rated by the investigator using the 5-point wrinkle scale
    • Safety success: the absence of a device-related serious adverse event (DSAE)

    Measured: Up to 4 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Participants With One Point Improvement in Line Severity

    • Investigators' rating of line severity improvement in the target area in animation at 7 days post-treatment, and at 30-day intervals for 120 days after treatment from baseline

    Measured: Baseline and up to 4 months

  2. Participants With an Improvement in Global Appearance

    • Subjects' global assessment of change in appearance of target area at 7 days post-treatment, and at 30-day intervals for 120 days after treatment to baseline

    Measured: Up to 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Cryo-Touch II in people with Facial Wrinkles, run by Pacira Pharmaceuticals, Inc at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 15 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 24 Jan 2024. 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 States. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 Oct 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Effectiveness and Safety Success (time frame: Up to 4 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 24 Jan 2024.
