Trial Outcomes & Findings for Evaluation of Effectiveness and Safety of Radiesse (+) to Improve the Contour of Jawline by Adding Volume to the Jawline (NCT NCT03583359)

NCT ID: NCT03583359

Last Updated: 2023-11-14

Results Overview

MJAS was a 5-point scale (0-4 scores; higher scores mean worse outcome). Responder rate was defined as percentage of participants with a greater than or equal to (\>=) 1-point improvement.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline up to Week 12

Population: ITT population consisted of all randomized participants. Here "overall number of participants analyzed" were participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure.

The participant assessed satisfaction using the Face-Q Satisfaction with Lower Face and Jawline module (Rasch transformed score 0-100; higher scores mean better outcome).
