Conditions

Moderate to Severe Upper Facial Lines (Horizontal Forehead Lines, Glabellar Frown Lines, and Lateral Canthal Lines)

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of NT 201 (active ingredient: Botulinum (neuro)toxin type A, free from complexing proteins) in the combined treatment of wrinkles in the upper face (Upper Facial Lines \[UFL\]): Horizontal Forehead Lines \[HFL\], Glabellar Frown Lines \[GFL\], and Lateral Canthal Lines \[LCL\]). It is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study with a placebo-control main period (MP) followed by an open-label extension (OLEX) period.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Main Period: Percentage of Glabellar Frown Line (GFL) Responders at Day 30Day 30The Merz aesthetics scales (MAS) are 5-point scales used to identify responders in a clinical context. They are validated photograph-based outcome instruments designed specifically for assessment of each upper facial area. GFL-response was defined as a score of 0 (no) or 1 (mild) and at least two-grade improvement from baseline to Day 30 of main period on MAS for GFL at maximum contraction as assessed by both the investigator and the subject.

Recruitment details

Subjects were recruited at 12 investigational sites in Germany.

Pre-assignment details

Of the 395 screened, 27 subjects exited as screen failures and 368 were randomized and enrolled to receive treatment with NT 201 or placebo in the main period of the study. Out of 358 subjects who completed the main period, 346 received treatment in the open-label extension (OLEX) period. As planned, participants (instead of facial lines) were assigned to the treatment groups and were assessed and analyzed. Therefore, data for participants is presented.

They are validated photograph-based outcome instruments designed specifically for assessment of each upper facial area. GFL-response was defined as a score of 0 (no) or 1 (mild) and at least two-grade improvement from baseline to Day 30 of main period on MAS for GFL at maximum contraction as assessed by both the investigator and the subject. The MAS for GFL ranged as 0 to 4 where 0 is No glabellar lines, 1 is Mild glabellar lines, 2 is Moderate glabellar lines, 3 is Severe glabellar lines and 4 is Very severe glabellar lines.

The MAS for HFL ranged as 0 to 4 where 0 is No lines, 1 is Mild lines, 2 is Moderate lines, 3 is Severe lines and 4 is Very severe lines.

Time frame: Day 30

Population: Target population of main key secondary estimand included subjects with HFL, GFL and LCL of moderate to severe intensity at maximum contraction as assessed by investigator and subject according to MAS, as randomized in this study: Subset of subjects randomized to UFL (Group U) or to placebo (Group P) groups, grouped by randomized treatment assignment.

OLEX: Number of Subjects With Related TEAEs

TEAEs of the OLEX period are defined as adverse events (AEs) with onset or worsening on or after date and time of first dose of study treatment in the OLEX period up to and including the final study visit. An AE is considered to be related if a causal relationship between study treatment and the AE is at least reasonably possible.

Time frame: Up to 39 weeks

Population: SES.
