About this study

Official title: A Single-arm, Open-label Clinical Investigation to Evaluate the Safety and Performance of DKL Crosslinked Sodium Hyaluronate 20 mg/mL + Lidocaine 0.3% Dermal Filler for Lip Augmentation

This study will assess the safety and effectiveness of a dermal filler called DKL crosslinked hyaluronic acid 20 mg/mL with lidocaine 0.3% when injected into the lips of healthy men and women who want to have fuller lips. The change in the appearance of the lips will be checked.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-arm, open-label, multi-center clinical investigation to evaluate the safety, performance, and usability of DKL crosslinked hyaluronic acid 20 mg/mL + lidocaine 0.3% for lip augmentation in healthy male and female volunteers with thin lips. Eligible participants will undergo treatment with crosslinked hyaluronic acid 20 mg/mL + lidocaine 0.3% injected into the lips for lip augmentation. Each participant will act as his/her own control. The improvement in lip appearance over time will be evaluated.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Lip Fullness Grading Scale (LFGS) score from baseline to 8 weeks after treatment.

    The LFGS is a validated 5-point photonumeric rating scale that quantifies lip fullness on a scale ranging from very thin (0) to full (4).

    Measured: Baseline (prior to treatment) to Week 8

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Change in Lip Fullness Grading Scale (LFGS) score from baseline to 4, 12, 16, 24 and 48 weeks.

    The LFGS is a validated 5-point photonumeric rating scale that quantifies lip fullness on a scale ranging from very thin (0) to full (4).

    Measured: Baseline (prior to treatment) to Week 4, 12, 16, 24 and 48.

  2. The percentage of subjects who had an improvement of at least one point in the LFGS score from baseline to 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48 weeks.

    The LFGS is a validated 5-point photonumeric rating scale that quantifies lip fullness on a scale ranging from very thin (0) to full (4).

    Measured: Baseline (prior to treatment) to Week 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48.

  3. Investigator-rated aesthetic improvement in appearance according to the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) at 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48 weeks after the initial treatment.

    Measured: Baseline (prior to treatment) to Week 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48.

  4. Percentage of responders defined as at least "improved" (improved, much improved, very much improved) as assessed by the Investigator-rated GAIS at 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48 weeks after the initial treatment.

    The GAIS is a 5-point scale rating global aesthetic improvement in appearance. The rating categories range from 'worse' to 'very much improved'.

    Measured: Baseline (prior to treatment) to Week 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48.

  5. Subject-rated aesthetic improvement in appearance according to GAIS at 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48 weeks after the initial treatment.

    The GAIS is a 5-point scale rating global aesthetic improvement in appearance. The rating categories range from 'worse' to 'very much improved'.

    Measured: Baseline (prior to treatment) to Week 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48.

  6. Percentage of responders defined as at least "improved" (improved, much improved, very much improved) as assessed by subject-rated GAIS at 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48 weeks after the initial treatment.

    The GAIS is a 5-point scale rating global aesthetic improvement in appearance. The rating categories range from 'worse' to 'very much improved'.

    Measured: Baseline (prior to treatment) to Week 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48.

  7. The intensity of pain during the initial injection and touch-up, evaluated on a numerical rating scale (NRS) ranging from 1 (no pain at all) to 10 (worst pain ever possible).

    The NRS measures the intensity of pain from 1 (no pain at all) to 10 (worst pain ever possible).

    Measured: Baseline (initial treatment), 4 weeks (touch-up, if applicable)

  8. Frequency, intensity, and duration of pre-defined expected post-treatment events collected using a subject diary for 14 days post-treatment.

    The frequency, intensity, and duration of pre-defined expected post-treatment events collected using a subject diary.

    Measured: From baseline to Week 2; if touch up is done: From Week 4 to Week 6

  9. Frequency, intensity, and duration of adverse events (AEs) throughout the clinical investigation and up to 48 weeks.

    The frequency, intensity, and duration of adverse events.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 48

  10. Incidence of device deficiencies (DDs).

    The incidence of DDs.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 4

  11. Lip function, sensation, texture, firmness, and movement/function, before injection and at 4, 8, 12-, 16-, 24-, and 48 weeks post-baseline.

    Lip function, sensation, texture, firmness, and movement/function will be assessed as normal or abnormal.

    Measured: Baseline to Week 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48.

  12. Subject satisfaction using the validated FACE-Q scales: • Satisfaction with Lips • Satisfaction with Outcome

    Satisfaction with Lips is a 10-item scale measures the appearance of the lips with items that ask about size, shape, and fullness, as well as how their lips suit their face and how the lips look when smiling. The answers range from very dissatisfied (1), to very satisfied (4).

    Satisfaction with Outcome is a 6-item scale measures satisfaction with the result of a facial procedure. The answers range from agree (1) to disagree (4).

    Measured: Baseline to Week 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48 (Satisfaction with outcome will not be assessed at baseline).

  13. Investigator-reported usability of the device

    A usability questionnaire will be completed by each of the Treating Investigators.

    Measured: Week 4 (after completing the treatment of all subjects)
