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

This is a single center, phase IV, randomized, investigator-blind study of three different hyaluronic dermal filler injections for volume enhancing in the dorsum of the hands. As an investigator-blind study, only the investigators are unaware of which dermal fillers were injected in the dorsum of each hand.

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

18 years to 70 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

  • Written Informed Consent;
  • Treatment-naive patients for fillers in hands;
  • Subjects of both genders over 18 years;
  • Fitzpatrick skin phototypes I to VI;
  • Subjects presenting a similar loss of fatty tissue on both hands, at least of 2 according the Validated Hand Grading Scale2;

  • Any prior surgery or side effects at the hands area, or any prior cosmetic procedures, including permanent fillers, that may interfere with the results;
  • Subjects with active inflammation or infection in the area to be treated;
  • Subjects with a history of medical treatment non-adherence or showing unwillingness to adhere to the study protocol;
  • Subjects presenting diseases such as coagulation disorders or under the use of anticoagulants, or any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, can compromise the evaluation of the study.
