Trial Outcomes & Findings for An Open-label Study of Poly-l-lactic Acid for Correction of Wrinkles in the décolletage Area (NCT NCT05538728)

NCT ID: NCT05538728

Last Updated: 2024-08-20

Results Overview

Responder was defined as participants having at least one grade improvement from baseline. GDS was a validated 5-point scale used to assess the severity of lines and wrinkles in the décolletage area: Grade 0 (none to minimal), Grade 1 (mild), Grade 2 (moderate), Grade 3 (severe), Grade 4 (very severe). Higher score meant very severe lines and wrinkles in the décolletage area.

Sculptra 8ml
Participants received first treatment injection sub-dermally with Sculptra 8 milliliters (ml; current labeled total volume: reconstituted with 8 mL sterile water for injection \[SWFI\] + 1 mL lidocaine hydrochloride 2 percent \[%\]) at Day 1. After first treatment, if needed, an additional 3 treatment sessions were performed at 1 month (+ 2 weeks) interval. Treatment was continued till optimal correction, which was defined as at least one grade improvement on Galderma Decolletage Scale (GDS) and best correction that achieved as agreed upon by the Treating Investigator and the participant.
Sculptra 17ml
Participants received first treatment injection sub-dermally with Sculptra 17ml (reconstituted with 17 mL SWFI + 1 mL lidocaine hydrochloride 2%) at Day 1. After first treatment, if needed, an additional 3 treatment sessions were performed at 1 month (+ 2 weeks) interval. Treatment was continued till optimal correction, which was defined as at least one grade improvement on GDS and best correction that achieved as agreed upon by the Treating Investigator and the participant.

Population: ITT population Included all participants who were randomized and analyzed according to the treatment they were randomized based on the randomization scheme. Here, "overall number of participants analyzed" signifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure.

Responder was defined as participants achieving 'very much improved', 'much improved' or "Improved" on GAIS compared to baseline. The 7-graded GAIS was used by the participant to live assess the severity of lines and wrinkles by responding to the question: "Please choose the response below that best describes the overall change in the appearance of your upper chest area since you received the study treatment " by using the respective categorical scale as follows: Very Much Improved, Much Improved, Improved, No Change, Worse, Much Worse, Very Much Worse. In this outcome measure, percentage of participants who achieved at least 'Improved' on the GAIS assessed by participant at Months 6 and 9 were reported.
