Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of Diosmin 1 g administered once daily (two 500 mg tablets) or twice daily (four 500 mg tablets) compared to placebo in improvement of lower extremity telangiectasias and in reducing severity of gynoid lipodystrophy, cellulite. ;Secondary Objective: • The secondary objective is to evaluate for all patients o the efficacy of Diosmin 1 g administered once daily or twice daily compared to placebo in thigh circumference reduction; o safety of the treatment; o overall satisfaction based on satisfaction questionnaire; ;Primary end point(s): The mean values in a photonumeric scale for grading severity of cellulite after treatment endpoint will be compared between groups. The mean improvement of lower extremity telangiectasias from baseline to treatment endpoint will be compared between groups. Treatment endpoint is defined as the last measurement at study completion (4 months) or, if the patient discontinued, as the last observation carried forward. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: randomization visit (1b), visit 2 (after 2 months treatment), visit 3 (after 4 months treatment) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): Groups will be compared for: • The change in a photonumeric scale for grading severity of cellulite after treatment endpoint to baseline values based on blinded photo assessments. • Reduction of thigh circumference as measured by cm tape measure from baseline to treatment endpoint. • Tight circumference as measured by cm tape measure at treatment endpoint. • Assessment of subject’s satisfaction based on satisfaction questionnaire. • Assessment of safety (see Safety Endpoints) ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: randomization visit (1b), visit 2 (after 2 months treatment), visit 3 (after 4 months treatment) | — |
