About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Open Label, Multicenter, Post Market Study Evaluating Princess® FILLER Lidocaine for the Correction of Nasolabial Folds

In this study, eligible subjects with moderate to severe nasolabial folds will be treated with Princess® FILLER Lidocaine and will return for follow-up assessments 2, 4, 24 and 36 weeks after the treatment. A Touch-up treatment may be done at Week 2, if deemed appropriate by the investigator

Read the detailed description

A prospective, open label, multicenter, post-market investigation. Following informed consent and screening, eligible subjects with moderate to severe nasolabial folds were treated with Princess® FILLER Lidocaine, and were to return for follow-up assessments 2, 4, 24 and 36 weeks after the initial treatment. A Touch-up treatment may be done at Week 2 after initial treatment, if deemed appropriate by the investigator. The performance of the investigational device evaluated by the investigator by assessing severity of nasolabial folds using the Nasolabial Folds Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) (4, 24 and 36 weeks after the initial treatment and in comparison to Day 0) and global aesthetic improvement (4, 24 and 36 weeks after the initial treatment). The subject evaluated pain intensity associated with the treatment (at Day 0 and at Week 2 after initial treatment (if Touch-up treatment occurred)), and satisfaction with the treatment 4, 24 and 36 weeks after the initial treatment.

The safety was evaluated based on occurrence of adverse events, which were collected throughout the investigation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Average Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) Grade Based on Investigator Assessment at Week 24

    Change from baseline in average Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) grade based on investigator assessment at week 24 after the initial treatment. The left and right nasolabial folds were graded separately on the 5-point NLF-SRS then the average of the two sides was used for analysis. NLF-SRS scores are ranked as 0 (None/minimal), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe) and 4 (Extreme).

    Measured: Baseline and Week 24

  2. Proportion of Subjects With ≥1 Point Reduction in Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) Grade Based on Investigator Assessment at Week 24

    The proportion of subjects with at least 1 point reduction from baseline in Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) grade based on investigator assessment at week 24 after the initial treatment. The left and right nasolabial folds were graded separately. A subject is counted if the subject had at least one grade reduction over baseline on both nasolabial folds, on the 5-point NLF-SRS. NLF-SRS scores are ranked as 0 (None/minimal), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe) and 4 (Extreme).

    Measured: Week 24

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change From Baseline in Average Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) Grade Based on Investigator Assessment at Weeks 4 and 36

    Change from baseline in average Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) grade based on investigator assessment at weeks 4 and 36 after the initial treatment. The left and right nasolabial folds were graded separately on the 5-point NLF-SRS then the average of the two sides was used for analysis. NLF-SRS scores are ranked as 0 (None/minimal), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe) and 4 (Extreme).

    Measured: Baseline, Week 4, Week 36

  2. Proportion of Subjects With ≥1 Point Reduction in Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) Grade Based on Investigator Assessment at Weeks 4 and 36

    The proportion of subjects with at least 1 point reduction from baseline in Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) grade based on investigator assessment at weeks 4 and 36 after the initial treatment. The left and right nasolabial folds were graded separately. A subject is counted if the subject had at least one grade reduction over baseline on both nasolabial folds, on the 5-point NLF-SRS. NLF-SRS scores are ranked as 0 (None/minimal), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe) and 4 (Extreme).

    Measured: Week 4, Week 36

  3. Proportion of Subjects With Aesthetic Improvement Based on Investigator Assessment at Weeks 4, 24 and 36

    The proportion of subjects with an aesthetic improvement over baseline (subjects who have been rated as "very much improved" or "much improved" or "improved" on both nasolabial folds), based on investigator assessment at weeks 4, 24 and 36 after the initial treatment and using the 5-point Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS). GAIS grades are ranked as "very much improved", "much improved", "improved", "no change", and "worse".

    Measured: Week 4, Week 24, Week 36

  4. Satisfaction of Subjects With Aesthetic Outcome at Weeks 4, 24 and 36

    Summary of subjects' satisfaction with aesthetic outcome of the treatment at weeks 4, 24 and 36 after the initial treatment. Subjects were asked to rate their satisfaction with the treatment using one of the following categories: 'very unsatisfied', 'unsatisfied', 'neither unsatisfied nor satisfied', 'satisfied', or 'very satisfied'.

    Measured: Week 4, Week 24, Week 36

  5. Average Pain Intensity Based on Subject Assessment Immediately After the Last Injection and 15 Minutes Thereafter for Initial and Touch-up Treatment

    Average pain intensity based on subject assessment immediately after the last injection and about 15 minutes thereafter for initial treatment at baseline and for touch-up treatment at week 2 (if applicable). Subjects quantified the pain associated with the procedure using a semi-quantitative 11-point Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS): 0 is no pain and 10 is the worst pain you can imagine.

    Measured: Baseline - Immediately after end of treatment, 15 minutes after end of treatment Week 2 - Immediately after end of treatment, 15 minutes after end of treatment

  6. Proportion of Subjects With ≥1 Point Reduction in Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) Grade Based on Independent Reviewer Assessment of Photographs at Week 24

    The proportion of subjects with at least 1 point reduction from baseline in Nasolabial Folds-Severity Rating Scale (NLF-SRS) grade based on independent reviewer assessment of photographs at week 24 after the initial treatment. The left and right nasolabial folds were graded separately. A subject is counted if the subject had at least one grade reduction over baseline on both nasolabial folds, on the 5-point NLF-SRS. NLF-SRS scores are ranked as 0 (None/minimal), 1 (Mild), 2 (Moderate), 3 (Severe) and 4 (Extreme).

    Measured: Week 24
