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.

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

35 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have moderate to severe perioral lines as assessed by the Investigator using the 4-point POLSS (none, mild, moderate, and severe)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have lip tattoos, facial hair or scars that would interfere with visualization of the lips and perioral area for the effectiveness assessments
  • Have dentures or any device covering all or part of the upper palate, and/or severe malocclusion, dentofacial or maxillofacial deformities, or significant asymmetry of the perioral area, as judged by the Treating Investigator

  • Have undergone cosmetic facial or perioral area procedures [e.g., face-lift, or other surgeries which may alter the appearance of the perioral area, including tissue grafting, or tissue augmentation with silicone, fat, or other permanent fillers] or be planning to undergo any of these procedures at any time during the study
  • Have undergone temporary or semi-permanent facial dermal filler injections (e.g., hyaluronic acid, calcium hydroxylapatite, L-Polylactic acid) in the lower face (below the orbital rim) within 24 months
  • Have received mesotherapy, or resurfacing (laser, photomodulation, intense pulsed light, radio frequency, dermabrasion, chemical peel, or other ablative or non-ablative procedures) within 6 months prior to entry in the study or be planning to undergo any of these procedures at any time during the study other than study related procedures.
  • Have begun use of any new over-the-counter or prescription, oral or topical, antiwrinkle products in the treatment area within 90 days prior to enrollment or be planning to begin use of such products at any time during the study. [NOTE: Use of sunscreens and continued therapy with some cosmeceuticals (e.g., alpha hydroxyl acids, glycolic acids, retinol, or retinoic acids) is allowed if the regimen was established ≥ 90 days prior to enrollment]
  • Have had epilation (e.g. laser hair removal, electrolysis, threading, etc.) in the perioral area performed within 3 months
  • Have received treatment with botulinum toxin of any serotype for any indication in the lower face [below the infraorbital rims (IORs)] within 1 year of the baseline visit

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
Percentage of Participants With at Least a 1 Point Improvement From Baseline on the Perioral Lines Severity Scale (POLSS)
Time Frame: Baseline, Month 6
The investigator evaluated the severity of the participant's upper and low lip at Baseline (Pre-treatment) to Month 6 using the 4-point POLSS where None=No lines, Mild=Few, shallow lines, Moderate=Some, moderate lines or Severe=Many, deep lines or crevices. The percentage of participants with at least a 1 Point Improvement is reported.
Baseline, Month 6

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
Participant Assessed Procedural and Post-Procedural Pain Levels
Time Frame: During injection, immediately following injection, 15, 30, and 45 min post-injection
The participant assessed procedural and post-procedural pain using an 11-point scale where: 0=no pain to 10=worst pain imaginable.
During injection, immediately following injection, 15, 30, and 45 min post-injection
Subject's Global Assessment of Change in Appearance of Perioral Lines
Time Frame: Baseline, Days 7, 14, Days 7, 14 after touch-up, Months 1, 3 and 6
The participant evaluated the change in the appearance of their perioral lines (the lines that radiate outward from the edges of the upper and lower lips) using a 7-point scale where: 1 = Very much improved; 2=Much improved; 3=Minimally improved; 4=No change; 5=Minimally worse; 6=Much worse; 7=Very much worse.
Baseline, Days 7, 14, Days 7, 14 after touch-up, Months 1, 3 and 6

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (ACTUAL)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
