About this study

Official title: Autologous Transplantation of Cultured Fibroblast for Correction of Nasolabial Folds

The study evaluated the safety and efficacy of the Autologous cultured fibroblast for correction of Nasolabial folds and inhibition of skin aging

Read the detailed description

Autologous cultured fibroblast which is obtain from the patient's normal skin is harvested and expanded in an in vitro. Biopsies samples are obtained from the behind of the patient's ear as a source of fibroblasts, then fibroblast cells isolated and expanded through cell culture, and used for the correction of Nasolabial folds, deep wrinkles of the forehead. Prior to final packaging, cell viability is assessed to be at least 85%

Being tested
Fibroblast, Placebo

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Fibroblast in people with Nasolabial Folds and Skin Aging, run by SCARM Institute, Tabriz, Iran at 1 site in Iran.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Iran. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Peyman Keyhanvar, MD, Ph.D (0914 114 6863, drkeyhanvar@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correction of Nasolabial (time frame: 6 months after transplantation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03140319, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 27 Oct 2020.
