Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The study will evaluate non-inferiority in clinical improvement in the intensity of expression lines over 16 weeks of drug Botulift (Laboratório Químico Farmacêutico Bergamo Ltd.) compared with Botox ® (Allergan Inc.). So that the homogeneity of the group opted to use in female patients with glabellar wrinkles grade 2 (moderate) and 3 (severe) Scale Standard Facial Wrinkles, established by Honecker et al. (2003). The first area of the face perceived in mime is the glabellar complex, located in the space between the eyebrows, wrinkles eventually show (Almeida et al., 2010).

Patients will be evaluated at each visit, the doctor Principal Investigator and digital photos of the glabellar region at maximum contraction and relaxation will be obtained using the apparatus Visia (Canfield Imaging Systems, version 4.0.2) for further analysis by random team dermatologists.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 61 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
overall improved assessment of hyperkinetic facial lines in a state of relaxation and maximal contraction through the Honeck's scale and photographic images obtained by equipment Visia Digital Compexton Analysis (Canfield Imaging Systems, version 4.0.2)
Time Frame: after 30 days of application
The non-inferiority of T group compared to the group Co was demonstrated in evaluations in a state of relaxation and maximal contraction in the PP analysis population, because as defined for the study, the lower limits of 95% of the mean of these assessments (-2 , 7% and -5.4%) are contained within the non-inferiority limit set at -10%.
after 30 days of application

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Length of stay of the effect of botulinum toxin A (Test and Comparator)
Time Frame: during the 24-week period
The action of both treatments decreases over time and there is no significant difference between the two treatments.
during the 24-week period
Safety of both botulinum toxin A
Time Frame: during the whole period
The occurrence of adverse events was similar in both groups.
during the whole period
