What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of Treatment Site Responses Post Procedure

    The primary endpoint of this study is to assess treatment site responses and adverse events through 6 months post procedure.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants With a Decrease in the Wrinkle Severity Scale for Nasolabial Folds

    For this study, a decrease (at least one point) in the rating, relative to pre-treatment rating, when assessed by Investigators at the 1-Month, 3-Month, and 6-Month visits was considered clinically significant (P value less than 0.05).

    WSS:

    (0) - No wrinkle

    1. - Just perceptible wrinkle
    2. - Shallow wrinkle
    3. - Moderately deep wrinkle
    4. - Deep wrinkle, well-defined edges
    5. - Very deep wrinkle, redundant fold

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Percentage of Participants That Were Satisfied With the Treatment as Rated by GAIS

    This was measured using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS). With the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS Scale) results of 1, 2 and 3 at 6 months were considered satisfied in this study.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Aline HA in people with Disorder of Soft Tissue, run by TauTona Group 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 7 inclusion and 13 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 17 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 17 Dec 2014). 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?

Assessment of Treatment Site Responses Post Procedure (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 17 Dec 2014.
