About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Multi-center, Patient & Evaluator-blind, Matched Pairs, Active-controlled Design Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Injection With Dermalax(Deep) as Compared to Restylane® in Correction of Nasolabial Fold

The study is to verify that Dermalax (Deep) is not inferior to the reference device, Restylane®, in terms of efficacy and safety in the correction of nasolabial folds. Subjects who voluntarily signed the informed consent and are judged to be eligible for this study will be intradermally injected both of study device and comparator device. Subjects will be randomized to receive injection of study device and comparator device on their each nasolabial fold. Efficacy is evaluated based on the change in Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) from baseline. Safety will be assessed based on 24 weeks follow up visits and subject diary which will be given to subjects during the first 2 weeks after the injection. Any uncomfortable things and adverse events will be investigated from subject diary and follow up visits.

Being tested
Dermalax(Deep), Restylane

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Dermalax(Deep) and Restylane in people with Correction of Nasolabial Folds, run by Across Co., Ltd. at 2 sites in South Korea.

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 9 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 2 Jul 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 South Korea. 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 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?

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?

Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale(WSRS) evaluation (time frame: at week 24). 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 2 Jul 2014.
