About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Uncontrolled Single Centre Study for the Evaluation of the Performance Characteristics (Efficacy and Safety) of the Dermal Filler MMG-23-04-2019 (Hyaluronic Acid 2,0%) for Female Intimate Area Hydration and Atrophy of the Vagina.

The study is an open-label uncontrolled single-center study for the evaluation of the Performance characteristics (efficacy and safety) of the dermal filler "MMG-23-04-2019" on the female genital area for the medicinal, functional and reconstructive indications.

Read the detailed description

The Dermal Filler is recommended for the female intimate areas, especially the internal area of the vagina (vaginal vestibule, introitus, vaginal walls, clitoris, "G" spot) for the following indications: vaginal dryness or discomfort, vaginal atrophy.

The main functional ingredient is cross-linked hyaluronic acid of non-animal origin, produced through bacterial fermentation.

The MMG-23-04-2019 is contained in pre-filled, graduated and disposable sterile syringe with Luer Lock adapter with 1 ml of net content and 20 mg/ml hyaluronic acid.

The MMG-23-04-2019 has been classified as a Class III medical device under Annex IX of Directive MDD 93/42 EEC since it is a long-term, invasive and absorbable medical device.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
MMG-23-04-2019ExperimentalMMG-23-04-2019 is composed by sodium hyaluronate at concentration of 2% (20 mg/ml) with 1,4-Butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE) acting as a cross-linking agent, in aqueous solution at physiological pH. The filler of 1ml is administered once or twice depending on the individual necessity.
Receives: Device: MMG-23-04-2019

What is being measured

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

  1. Vaginal Maturation Index (VMI) absolute change

    Improvement in the properties of the vaginal wall, measured by the VMI.

    Measured: From baseline to Day 60 (up to 8 weeks).

  2. Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]

    Frequency and severity of adverse events (AEs) and adverse device effect

    Measured: From screening through study completion, an average of 60 days - daily.

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. The change in the Gloria Bachmann Vaginal Health Index (VHI)

    The VHI is a score formed by 5 parameters (vaginal elasticity, vaginal secretions, pH, epithelial mucous membrane, vaginal hydration). The final score defines the degree of atrophy in the genitourinary tract by assigning a single score to each parameter. The maximum possible score is 25, while the minimum possible score is 5.

    Measured: From baseline to Day 30 (4 weeks) and Day 60 (up to 8 weeks).

  2. The absolute change in Visual Analogous Scale (VAS).

    The absolute change in VAS, ranged between 0 (no pain) and 10 (worst possible pain), judged by the Principal Investigator.

    Measured: From baseline to Day 30 (4 weeks) and Day 60 (up to 8 weeks).

  3. The absolute change in Visual Analogous Scale (VAS)

    The absolute change in VAS ranged between 0 (no pain) and 10 (worst possible pain), judged by the subject.

    Measured: From Day 0 to Day 30 (4 weeks) and Day 60 (up to 8 weeks).

  4. The change of the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) score.

    The FSFI is a validated questionnaire to measure the sexual functioning of women. The score ranges between 2 (minimum) and 36 (maximum).

    Measured: From Day 0 to Day 30 and Day 60 (up to 4 weeks and 8 weeks respectively).

  5. Subject satisfaction evaluated by the Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) questionnaire

    The PGI-I is a transition single question scale, asking the patient to rate their urinary tract condition now, as compared with how it was prior to before beginning treatment on a scale from 1 (Very much better) to 7 (Very much worse)

    Measured: From Day 30 (4 weeks) to Day 60 (up to 8 weeks).

  6. The change if the Nugent Score

    The Nugent Score is a Gram stain scoring system for vaginal swabs to diagnose bacterial vaginosis, relying on scoring of individual types of organisms; a score of 0 to 10 is derived from a weighted combination of the following: large Gram-positive rods (lactobacilli; decrease in Lactobacillus scored as 0 to 4), small Gram-negative or Gram-variable rods (G. vaginalis or other anaerobes; scored as 0 to 4), and curved Gram-negative or Gram-variable rods (Mobiluncus spp.; scored as 0 to 2).

    Measured: From baseline to Day 60 (up to 8 weeks).

  7. Viganal biopsy (optional)

    Evaluation of the mitotic activity of the mucosa (Ki-67 proliferation marker - %).

    Measured: From Day 0 up to Day 60 (up to 8 weeks).

  8. Participant's Questionnaire

    To register the overall discomfort and satisfaction of the subjects.

    Measured: From Day 0 to Day 30 and Day 60 (up to week 4 and 8 respectively).
