AVAVA SR-1 Wrinkles and BPL Study

December 11, 2023 updated by: AVAVA, Inc.
This study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a laser called the SR-1 Skin Treatment System, or SR-1 Laser, for the treatment of wrinkles and pigmented spots. Participants will be treated with the SR-1 Laser 3 or 4 times with each treatment spaced 4-6 weeks apart. The improvement in wrinkles and pigmented spots will be evaluated 1 and 3 months after the final treatment.

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

22 years to 70 years (Adult, Older Adult)

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
Improvement in facial wrinkles
Time Frame: 3 months after the final treatment
A 1 point or greater reduction in facial wrinkle severity using the Fitzpatrick Wrinkle and Elastosis Scale (FWS), as assessed, and agreed upon by at least two of three blinded independent reviewers in at least 70% of subjects as determined with a side-by-side evaluation of baseline and post-treatment photographs. The FWS scores range from 1 to 9 with lower numbers representing less severe wrinkles.
3 months after the final treatment

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
Reduction of pigmentation in benign pigmented lesions (BPL)
Time Frame: 3 months after the final treatment
If clinically identifiable BPL were present at baseline, a greater than 25% reduction in pigmentation of BPL (including, but not limited to, lentigos, solar lentigos, ephelides, and melasma) as assessed, and agreed upon, by at least two of three blinded independent reviewers in at least 50% of subjects as determined with a side-by-side evaluation of baseline and post-treatment photographs.
3 months after the final treatment
Subject satisfaction with the improvement in wrinkles
Time Frame: 1 and 3 months after the final treatment
The percent of subjects satisfied with the improvement in fine lines and wrinkles in the treated areas will be assessed using a Likert scale with responses ranging from "very dissatisfied" to "very satisfied".
1 and 3 months after the final treatment
Subject satisfaction with the improvement in BPL
Time Frame: 1 and 3 months after the final treatment
The percent of subjects satisfied with the improvement in BPL pigmentation will be assessed among subjects with clinically identifiable BPL present at baseline using a Likert scale with responses ranging from "very dissatisfied" to "very satisfied".
1 and 3 months after the final treatment
Tolerance of procedure
Time Frame: during treatment
Subject tolerance of the procedure based on pain scores during treatment per the 1-10 Visual Analog Scale.
during treatment
Adverse Events
Time Frame: 3 months after the final treatment
The incidence and severity of adverse events
3 months after the final treatment
Overall improvement
Time Frame: 1 and 3 months after the final treatment
Rate of overall improvement in facial wrinkles and BPL in the treated area(s) as assessed by the investigator using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS). Wrinkles and BPL will be considered together and one overall score will be created. Scores on the GAIS range from 0 to 4 which correspond to "worsening of conditions", "no improvement in conditions", "mild improvement in conditions", "moderate improvement in conditions", and "significant improvement in conditions".
1 and 3 months after the final treatment
