Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Subjects With ≥2-Grade Improvement From Baseline on Both the Investigator's and Subject's Facial Wrinkle Scale (FWS) Ratings of Forehead Line Severity at Maximum Eyebrow Elevation

    The Investigator and subject each assessed the severity of the subject's forehead lines at maximum eyebrow elevation using the 4-grade FWS, where 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, and 3=severe. The percentage of subjects with at least a 2-grade improvement from baseline assessed by both the Investigator and the subject are reported.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 30

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Percentage of Subjects With an Investigator Rating of None or Mild on the 4-Grade FWS for Forehead Line Severity at Maximum Eyebrow Elevation

    The Investigator assessed the severity of the subject's forehead lines at maximum eyebrow elevation using the 4-grade FWS, where 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, and 3=severe. The percentage of subjects with a score of "none" and "mild" are reported.

    Measured: Day 30

  2. Percentage of Subjects With ≥1-Grade Improvement From Baseline on the Investigator's FWS Rating of Forehead Line Severity at Rest

    The Investigator assessed the severity of the subject's forehead lines at rest using the 4-grade FWS, where 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, and 3=severe. The percentage of subjects with at least a 1-grade improvement assessed by the Investigator are reported.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 30

  3. Percentage of Subjects Reporting Mostly Satisfied or Very Satisfied on the 5-Point Facial Line Satisfaction Questionnaire (FLSQ) Item 5

    The FLSQ consists of 13 questions that assess subject satisfaction and appearance-related impacts associated with facial lines. Item 5 on the FLSQ asks "How satisfied are you with the effect your treatment had on your facial lines?" Responses included: very satisfied, mostly satisfied, neither satisfied or dissatisfied, mostly dissatisfied, or very dissatisfied. The percentage of subjects reporting a score of mostly satisfied or very satisfied with treatment are reported.

    Measured: Day 60

  4. Percentage of Subjects With ≥20-Point Improvement From Baseline on the Impact Domain of the FLSQ Among Subjects With Baseline Score ≥ 20 Points

    The FLSQ consists of 13 questions that assess subject satisfaction and appearance-related impacts associated with facial lines. The Impact Domain measures the subject's appearance-related and emotional impacts of treatment and is composed of 5 questions with a possible range of scores from 0 (worst) to 100 (best), using a transformed scale. Only subjects with baseline scores ≥ 20 are included in the analysis.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 30

  5. Percentage of Subjects With a ≥3-Point Improvement From Baseline on Item 4 of the 11-Point Facial Line Outcomes (FLO-11) Questionnaire©

    The FLO-11 assess the subject's psychological and appearance-related impacts associated with facial lines. Item 4 is "I look older than my actual age because of my facial lines" with a range of possible scores from 0 = not at all to 10 = very much. Only subjects with baseline scores ≥ 3 are included in the analysis.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 30

  6. Time to Retreatment Eligibility

    Time to retreatment eligibility is defined as the number of days from treatment cycle 1 injection to the return to an Investigator FWS rating of moderate or severe at maximum eyebrow elevation. The FWS is a 4-grade scale, where 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, and 3=severe. Only subjects who achieved a ≥ 2-grade improvement on both the Investigator and subject FWS ratings at maximum eyebrow elevation on Day 30 are included in the analysis.

    Measured: 12 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing OnabotulinumtoxinA and Normal Saline in people with Facial Rhytides and Glabellar Rhytides, run by Allergan at 24 sites in 4 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 2 inclusion and 7 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 25 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 24 sites in United States, Germany, United Kingdom, Belgium. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 25 Jul 2017). 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?

Percentage of Subjects With ≥2-Grade Improvement From Baseline on Both the Investigator's and Subject's Facial Wrinkle Scale (FWS) Ratings of Forehead Line Severity at Maximum Eyebrow Elevation (time frame: Baseline, Day 30). 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Jul 2017.
