Brief Summary

This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-center clinical trial was conducted to assess the efficacy and tolerance of an anti-aging daily serum to improve moderate overall photodamage and skin fatigue after 12-weeks of twice-daily used when compared to a placebo-serum (vehicle control). A total of 62 subjects, 34-60 years of age completed study participation.

Detailed Description

This double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-center clinical trial was conducted to assess the efficacy and tolerance of an anti-aging daily serum (Cell 1) to improve moderate overall photodamage and skin fatigue of aging skin after 12-weeks days of twice-daily use when compared to the efficacy of a combination of a placebo-control (Cell 2). Skin fatigue was characterized by dehydrated skin with a lack of firmness (visual) and a dull appearance on the global face.

Efficacy and tolerability were assessed through clinical grading at baseline, week 4, week 8, and week 12. Efficacy evaluation on fine lines and wrinkles in the crow's feet area; overall eye appearance on the periocular area; and smoothness (tactile), firmness (visual), radiance, and overall photodamage on the global face were performed at baseline and post-baseline by a clinical grader, a board-certified dermatologist. Furthermore, blinded photo-grading at baseline and week 12 were performed by two board certified dermatologists.

Self-assessment questionnaires, Antera 3D image, Ultrasound Imaging, and VISIA photography were completed at baseline and post-baseline timepoints. Furthermore, 10 randomized subjects, a subset of the study (five in Cell 1 and five in Cell 2) had 2 mm punch skin biopsies collected from the lateral, pre-auricular at baseline and week 12.

A total of 62 subjects completed study participation (31 in Cell 1 and 31 in Cell 2).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change In Clinical Efficacy Parameter Radiance Versus Baseline12 weeks

The primary efficacy endpoint will be the Investigator Clinical Grading using Modified Griffith's 10-point Scale at post-baseline timepoints.

A decrease in scores at post-baseline timepoints (week 4,8, and12) in comparison to baseline indicates an improvement for the indicated parameter.

The efficacy parameters will be assessed globally on each subject's face using a modified Griffiths' 10-point scale according to the following numerical definitions (half-point scores may be used as necessary to more accurately describe the skin condition):

0 = none (best possible condition); 1 to 3 = mild; 4 to 6 = moderate;7 to 9

= severe (worst possible condition). The lower the score equates to the best possible outcome.

Change in Active Cell versus Placebo Control in Clinical Efficacy at week 1212 weeks

The primary efficacy endpoint will be the Investigator Clinical Grading using Modified Griffith's 10-point Scale at post-baseline timepoints versus the placebo control.

A confidence interval of 90% (p \<0.10) for both live clinical grading and photo-grading will be performed between the Cell 1 (active comparator) versus Cell 2 (placebo control comparator).

The efficacy parameters will be assessed globally on each subject's face using a modified Griffiths' 10-point scale according to the following numerical definitions (half-point scores may be used as necessary to more accurately describe the skin condition):

0 = none (best possible condition); 1 to 3 = mild; 4 to 6 = moderate;7 to 9

= severe (worst possible condition). The lower the score equates to the best possible outcome.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Lack of Significant Increase in Subjective Tolerability Parameters at week 4, 8, 12 compared to Baseline12 weeks

The secondary tolerability endpoint will be the Subjective Tolerability Assessment of Burning, Itching and Stinging.

A decrease in scores or lack of significant increase at week 4, 8, and 12 in comparison to Baseline indicates tolerability/safety of the test material. Four point scale with a lower score indicating a better outcome.

Example Burning. 0 = None No burning of the treatment area

1. = Mild Slight burning sensation of the treatment area; not really bothersome

2. = Moderate Definite warm, burning of the treatment area that is somewhat bothersome.

3. = Severe Hot burning sensation of the treatment area that causes definite discomfort and may interrupt daily activities and/or sleep

Lack of Significant Increase in Objective Investigator Tolerability Parameters at week 4, 8, 12 compared to Baseline12 weeks

The second outcome measure is objective tolerability endpoint. Investigator Tolerability Assessment includes Erythema, Edema and Dryness.

A decrease in scores or lack of significant increase at week 4, 8, and 12 in comparison to Baseline indicates tolerability/safety of the test material. Four point scale with a lower score indicating a better outcome.

Example for Erythema: Erythema 0 = None No erythema of the treatment area

1. = Mild Slight, but definite redness of the treatment area

2. = Moderate Definite redness of the treatment area

3. = Severe Marked redness of the treatment area
