Histological and Microbiological Evaluation of Late Occurring Nodules With Hyaluronic Acid Dermal Fillers

July 30, 2021 updated by: Allergan
This study will determine if HA dermal filler late occurring (> 4 weeks and <2 years) nodules are associated with bacterial contamination (independent of filler type) and to characterize the histological response.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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.

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Subjects who present with late occurring nodules, occurring more than 4 weeks but less than 2 years after the latest injection of any HA soft tissue filler.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have only received HA fillers (no limitation on the brand(s)/product(s) of HA filler used; multiple product use is allowed).
  • Present with an unresolved nodule (inflammatory or non-inflammatory) which was first observed > 4 weeks and > 2 years after most recent HA filler treatment and is determined to be greater than 3 millimeters (mm) in diameter by palpation

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have received non-HA fillers (e.g. polyacrylamide, calcium hydroxyapatite, poly-L-lactic acid, polymethylmethacrylate, silicone, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene, collagen) including mixes with HA fillers anywhere in the face.
  • Are currently enrolled in a dermal filler clinical trial or previously enrolled in a dermal filler clinical trial with randomized treatment in which the type of dermal filler is unknown (i.e. non-HA filler arm of study).
  • Have history of keloid or hypertrophic scarring
  • Have received intralesional intervention for the nodule (e.g. hyaluronidase, corticosteroids, antibiotics, 5-fluorouracil).
  • Are pregnant

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
Histological Sampling
Time Frame: 12 Weeks
Histological lab assessment of biopsy sample for analysis of Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), orcein, periodic acid-Schiff, gram stain and immunohistochemistry (IHC), with a histopathology assessment to identify possible presence and location of bacteria, mycobacteria, fungus, mold, and/or yeast and the immune/inflammation response within the biopsy.
12 Weeks
Microbiological Sampling
Time Frame: 12 Weeks
Microbiology lab assessment of biopsy sample for analysis of the presence and species of bacteria/mycobacteria within the biopsy.
12 Weeks

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

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.
