What is being measured

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

  1. The 4th week after treatment, the composite response rate on both the investigator's assessment and the participant's self-assessment concurrently of GL severity at maximal frown.

    The composite response rate: The proportion of participants achieving a score of 0 or 1 and a two-grade improvement from the baseline, on both the investigator's assessment and the participant's self- assessment concurrently of GL severity at maximal frown.

    Glabellar lines at maximal frown is based on the 4 grade Facial Wrinkle Scale: 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate) and 3 (severe).

    Measured: The 4th week after treatment

  2. At the 1st week, 8th week, and 12th week after treatment, the composite response rate on both the investigator's assessment and the participant's self- assessment concurrently of GL severity at maximal frown.

    Measured: At the 1st week, 8th week, and 12th week after treatment

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. The response rate on the investigator's assessment and the participant's self- assessment individually of GL severity at maximal frown and the Independent Review Committee's assessment of GL severity photos at maximal frown taken on-site.

    The response rate: The proportion of participants achieving a score of 0 or 1 and a two-grade improvement of GL severity from the baseline at maximal frown.

    Measured: At the 1st week, 4th week, 8th week, and 12th week after treatment

  2. The proportion of participants who achieve a score of 0 or 1 on the investigator's assessment and the participant's self-assessment individually of GL severity at maximal frown and the Independent Review Committee's assessment.

    The proportion of participants who achieve a score of 0 or 1 on the investigator's assessment and the participant's self-assessment individually of GL severity at maximal frown and the Independent Review Committee's assessment of GL severity photos at maximal frown taken on-site.

    Measured: At the 1st week, 4th week, 8th week, and 12th week after treatment

  3. the severity of GL at rest on the investigator's assessment and the participant's self- assessment individually of GL severity at maximal frown and the Independent Review Committee's assessment of GL severity photos at maximal frown taken on-site.

    The severity of glabellar lines at rest will be assessed according to the 4 grade scale: 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate) and 3 (severe).

    Measured: At the 1st week, 4th week, 8th week, and 12th week after treatment

  4. The duration of GL treatment effect when the maximal frown severity score returned to baseline score.

    Measured: Within 12 weeks

  5. At the 1st week, 4th week, 8th week, and 12th week after treatment, the improvement rate of glabellar lines severity at maximal frown on the participant's self-assessment.

    Participant self-assessment of 9 subscales: +4 (complete improvement), +3 (significant improvement), +2 (moderate improvement), +1 (slight improvement), 0 (no change), -1 (minor aggravation), -2 (medium aggravation), -3 (significant aggravation), and-4 (very significant aggravation).

    Improvement rate is defined as the proportion of participants with + 2 (moderate improvement) or above.

    Measured: At the 1st week, 4th week, 8th week, and 12th week after treatment

  6. At the 1st week, 4th week, 8th week, and 12th week after treatment, the participant's satisfaction.

    Satisfaction will be assessed on the 7-grade scale: 1 (very dissatisfied), 2 (dissatisfied), 3 (somewhat dissatisfied), 4 (reluctantly), 5 (relatively satisfied), 6 (satisfied) and 7 (very satisfied).

    Calculate the proportion of participants with 6 or above.

    Measured: At the 1st week, 4th week, 8th week, and 12th week after treatment

  7. Incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events within 12 weeks of treatment.

    Measured: Within 12 weeks of treatment

  8. Incidence of injection site reactions within 12 weeks of treatment.

    Measured: Within 12 weeks of treatment

  9. Incidence of anti-drug antibodies and neutralizing antibodies within 12 weeks of treatment.

    Measured: Within 12 weeks of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Rcombinant botulinum neurotoxin type A for injection (YY001) and OnabotulinumtoxinA in people with Moderate to Severe Glabellar Lines, run by Chongqing Claruvis Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 16 sites in China.

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 8 inclusion and 14 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 24 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in China. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The 4th week after treatment, the composite response rate on both the investigator's assessment and the participant's self-assessment concurrently of GL severity at maximal frown. (time frame: The 4th week after treatment). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 24 Jul 2024.
