Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of Radiesse implantation for very severe volume loss in the dorsum of the hand at 6 months after treatment.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a 2-year post approval safety (PAS) study evaluating the Adverse Event (AE) rate of Merz Hand Grading Scale (MHGS) baseline grade 4 hands (Group A) compared to the AE rate of MHGS baseline grade 2-3 hands (Group B).

Subjects will be recruited at each site with the intention to have an equal number of subjects in Group A and Group B. All subjects will receive an initial Radiesse hand treatment in both hands, and up to 3 retreatments in the study. Hands will be assessed by evaluators on the MHGS who will be blinded to group, treatment details, time since last treatment, and number of retreatments.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

"Grade 4 Hands" group

"Grade 4 Hands" group will be subjects with hand grading of grade 4 (very severe loss of fatty tissue, marked visibility of veins and tendons in the dorsal hand). "Grade 4 Hands" group subjects will receive Radiesse injectable implant and 2% lidocaine HCL up to 3 cc (2 syringes) per hand per treatment. Subjects in "Grade 4 Hands" group can have up to three retreatments over an 18 month period.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Radiesse injectable implant and 2% lidocaine HCL

Intervention Type DEVICE

Radiesse injectable implant injected in small boluses (0.2-0.5cc/bolus). No more than 0.5cc per bolus. No more than 3 cc (2 syringes) will be injected per hand.

"Grade 2 or 3 Hands" group

"Grade 2 or 3 Hands" group will be subjects with hand grading of grade 2 or grade 3 (moderate to severe loss of fatty tissue, mild to moderate visibility of veins and tendons in the dorsal hand). "Grade 2 or 3 Hands" group subjects will receive Radiesse injectable implant and 2% lidocaine HCL up to 3 cc (2 syringes) per hand per treatment. Subjects in "Grade 2 or 3 Hands" group can have up to three retreatments over an 18 month period.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Radiesse injectable implant and 2% lidocaine HCL

Intervention Type DEVICE

Radiesse injectable implant injected in small boluses (0.2-0.5cc/bolus). No more than 0.5cc per bolus. No more than 3 cc (2 syringes) will be injected per hand.
