A Study to Assess Adverse Events and Change in Disease Activity of JUVÉDERM® VOLITE™ XC Injectable Gel for Change in Neck Appearance in Adult Participants

Phase 3
Completed
Conditions
Neck Lines
Interventions
Device: VOLITE XC
Registration Number
NCT05316233
Lead Sponsor
AbbVie
Brief Summary

The cumulative effect of aging and environmental exposures (ie, ultraviolet, infrared, and visible light radiation and pollution) leads to wrinkles, discoloration, laxity, and roughness of sun exposed skin. The neck is a frequently mentioned area by patients complaining about its crepey texture and deep lines. VOLITE XC is a crosslinked HA gel implant formulated with lidocaine that was developed to provide a safe, minimally invasive method of treating fine lines and improving skin quality. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events and effectiveness of VOLITE XC in adults seeking improvement in neck appearance.

VOLITE XC is an investigational product being developed for the improvement of horizontal neck lines. Participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. There is a 1 in 3 chance that participants will be assigned to the control group. Around 212 adult participants with transverse neck lines will be enrolled in the study at approximately 20 sites.

Participants in the treatment group will receive VOLITE XC at Day 1 and followed for up to 14 Months. Participants will have the opportunity to receive optional touch-up and optional repeat treatment of VOLITE XC during the follow-up duration period. The control group received no treatment and will be followed for up to 6 months after randomization. Participants can then opt to receive VOLITE XC and followed for 6 Months.

There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants with Adverse EventsUp to 14 Months

An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. The investigator assesses the relationship of each event to the use of study drug.

Percentage of Participants Achieving "Responder" status based on Evaluating Investigator's (EI) live assessment of transverse neck lines using the Allergan Transverse Neck Lines Scale (ATNLS)Month 1

A "responder" is a participant with at least 1-grade improvement on the ATNLS. ATNLS is a 5-point photonumeric scale to grade the severity of transverse neck lines (0=None, 4=Extreme)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Achieving "Responder" Status for EI's Assessment of global aesthetic improvement on the neck using the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS)Month 1

A "responder" is a participant who shows improvement in the overall aesthetic assessment on the neck using GAIS. GAIS is a 5-point ordinal scale (2=Much Improved, -2=Much Worse).

Percentage of Participants Achieving "Responder" Status for Participant's Assessment of global aesthetic improvement on the Neck using GAISMonth 1

A "responder" is a participant who shows improvement in the overall aesthetic assessment in the neck using GAIS. GAIS is a 5-point ordinal scale (2=Much Improved, -2=Much Worse).

Change from baseline to Month 1 in the Rasch-transformed scores on FACE-Q Appraisal of the Neck questionnaireBaseline to Month 1

FACE-Q is a 10-item questionnaire assessing various aspects of the neck appearance. In the FACE-Q Appraisal of the Neck questionnaire, the responses will be summed and converted to a Rasch-transformed score that ranges from 0 to 100.
