A Prospective Clinical Investigation of DMFI300 for Treating Nasolabial Folds

This is a prospective, randomized, controlled clinical investigation designed to evaluate the performance and safety of DMFI300 for the treatment of nasolabial folds. 30 adult participants will receive treatment with the investigational device and the comparator device using a split-face design. The study will assess wrinkle severity using validated aesthetic evaluation scales, as well as overall safety.

Treatment and study plan

DMFI300

Device

Injection of DMFI300 for nasolabial folds.

Ellansé-M

Device

Injection of Ellansé-M for nasolabial folds.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from Baseline in Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) as Assessed by the Evaluating Investigator (EI)

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 12

    WSRS is a validated 5-point ordinal scale used to evaluate wrinkle severity (1 = Absent, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe, 5 = Extreme).

    Higher scores indicate more severe wrinkles. The blinded EI will assess the change from baseline to Month 12 for each nasolabial fold treated with DMFI300 or Ellansé-M.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change from Baseline in Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale (WSRS) Assessed by the Evaluating Investigator (EI) and the Treating Investigator (TI)

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 1,3,6,9

    WSRS is a validated 5-point ordinal scale used to evaluate wrinkle severity (1 = Absent, 2 = Mild, 3 = Moderate, 4 = Severe, 5 = Extreme).

    Changes from baseline will be assessed for each nasolabial fold treated with DMFI300 or Ellansé-M by the EI and TI.

  2. Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS) Assessed by the Treating Investigator (TI) and the Subject

    Time frame: Month 1,3,6,9,12

    GAIS is a 5-point global improvement scale (3 = Very Much Improved, 2 = Much Improved, 1 = Improved, 0 = No Change, -1 = Worse).

    The TI and subject will independently assess GAIS for each nasolabial fold treated with DMFI300 or Ellansé-M.

  3. Subject Satisfaction With Treatment Using a Five-Point Likert Scale

    Time frame: Month 12

    Subject satisfaction with treatment will be evaluated using a five-point Likert scale for each nasolabial fold treated with DMFI300 or Ellansé-M.

  4. Proportion of Subjects Receiving Touch-up Treatment

    Time frame: Month 1

    Proportion of subjects who receive additional touch-up treatment at Month 1 after the initial injection if suboptimal improvement is observed.

  5. Incidence of Treatment-Related Adverse Events (TRAEs), Adverse Events (AEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and Device Deficiencies (DDs)

    Time frame: Baseline through Month 12

    All TRAEs, AEs, SAEs, and device deficiencies will be recorded and evaluated throughout the clinical investigation.
