Official title: An Evaluator-blinded Multi-center Study of Combined Treatment With Azzalure, Restylane/Emervel Filler and Restylane Skinbooster as Compared to Single Treatment With Either Azzalure Alone or Restylane/Emervel Filler Alone

The efficacy and safety, as well as subject satisfaction will be evaluated after single treatment with Azzalure alone or Restylane/Emervel filler alone followed by repeated combined treatment with Azzalure, Restylane/Emervel filler and Restylane Skinbooster. Subjects will be followed for up to 18 months after initial treatment.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Subjects With Improvement in Global Facial Aesthetic Appearance at 7 Months (Review of Photographs)

    To evaluate "Global facial aesthetic appearance" at 7 months compared to at 1 month, blinded evaluator review of photographs.

    Measured: 7 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Number of Subjects With Improvement in Global Facial Aesthetic Appearance at 1, 7 and 13 Months (Review of Photographs)

    To evaluate "Global facial aesthetic appearance" at 1, 7 and 13 months, blinded evaluator review of photographs from the respective visits.

    Measured: 1, 7 and 13 months

  2. Number of Participants Improved on the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) as Assessed by Blinded Evaluator

    The 5-graded GAIS is used to assess the facial aesthetic improvement from baseline by responding to the question: "How would you describe the subject's global facial aesthetic appearance, compared to the photographs taken before treatment at baseline?" The scale grades are Very much improved, Much improved, Somewhat improved, No change, Worse. Improved subjects are those graded as Very much improved, Much improved, and Somewhat improved.

    Measured: Month 1, Month 7, and Month 13

  3. Number of Subjects Satisfied With Overall Facial Appearance (Questionnaire)

    Subjects answered the question "How satisfied are you today with the appearance of your face?" with "Very/somewhat satisfied", "Neither/nor", or "Very/somewhat dissatisfied". Number of subjects satisfied are those that answered "Very/somewhat satisfied".

    Measured: Month 7 and Month 13

  4. Number of Subjects for Which the Investigator is Satisfied With Overall Facial Aesthetic Outcome

    The Investigator answered the question "How satisfied are you with the overall facial aesthetic outcome for the subject?" with "Very/somewhat satisfied", "Neither/nor", or "Very/somewhat dissatisfied". Satisfied criteria is met for those subjects that the Investigator answered "Very/somewhat satisfied".

    Measured: Month 7 and Month 13

  5. Number of Participants Who Had Improvement in Wrinkle Severity Score of Treated Glabellar Lines (Validated Photo Scales)

    The wrinkle severity of the glabellar lines at maximum frown was evaluated by the investigator at baseline before first treatment and at follow-up visits. Validated photonumeric grading scales were used where each severity grade is illustrated by a set of photographs. The investigator performed the assessment live or by using 2D photographs from the present visit, together with the respective photo guide: 0 No glabella lines, 1 Mild glabella lines, 2 Moderate glabella lines, 3 Severe glabella lines, 4 Very severe glabella lines. Improved criteria is thus fulfilled for subjects receiving a lower score compared to baseline.

    Measured: Month 7 and Month 13

  6. Change in Perceived Age of Subjects

    To evaluate First impression and perceived age of subjects by evaluation of photos.

    Change between timepoints are reported. A negative value indicates that the participant is assessed to be younger at the specified visit compared to the assessment made at 1 month after single treatment.

    Measured: 1 and 7 months, and 1 and 13 months

  7. Injected Filler Volume

    To evaluate the filler volume injected at initial single treatment and at following repeated combined treatment

    Measured: Initial single treatment (baseline), first combined treatment (Month 6), and second combined treatment (Month 12)

  8. Adverse Event Reporting

    To evaluate safety throughout the study period

    Measured: 0-18 months

A Phase 4 study testing Azzalure, Restylane/Emervel filler and Restylane Skinbooster in people with Facial Aesthetic Treatment, run by Galderma R&D at 3 sites in 2 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 18 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 26 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in France, Sweden. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 23 Sep 2019). 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 Subjects With Improvement in Global Facial Aesthetic Appearance at 7 Months (Review of Photographs) (time frame: 7 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?
