Registered outcomes10

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimarySkin Aging Measured With the Photonumeric Scale.12, 24 weeks
Scoring was accomplished by matching each part of the face (forehead, glabella, corners of the mouth, nasal labial fold, crow's feet, below eyes and upper lip) to photographs in the scales and reporting the appropriate number in the tables. All individual scores were added to obtain the total score (Less signs of skin aging = 0, more signs of skin aging = 41.6).
SecondaryPhotographic Evaluation by a Panel of Blinded Dermatologists.24 weeks
A blinded panel of two dermatologists had to identify independently which of the two photographs had an improvement or if there was no noticeable difference between them. The two photographs of each subject were randomized to keep the blind. When the Week 24 photograph was selected as the one showing an improvement, it was scored by the statistician as "improvement". When the Day 0 photograph was selected as the one showing an improvement, it was scored by the statistician as "worsening". When there was no noticeable difference between the photographs, it was scored as "stable".
SecondaryTrans-epidermal Water Loss (TEWL).12, 24 weeks
Trans Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) was measured with a DermaLab device (Cortex Technology, Denmark) equipped with a TEWL probe. Measurements were performed with the subject lying down on the back in a room with controlled temperature (20°C +/-2) and relative humidity (45% +/- 15%). All measurements were performed at least 30 minutes after the subject was transferred into this room. The measurements were performed on the cheek. Care was taken to use the same cheek for each subject throughout the study.
SecondarySkin Hydration (Conductance)12, 24 weeks
Skin hydration was measured with a DermaLab device (Cortex Technology, Denmark) equipped with a skin hydration probe. Measurements were performed in a room with controlled temperature (20°C +/-2) and humidity (45% +/- 15%). All measurements were performed at least 30 minutes after the subject had been transferred into this room. Care was taken to use the same cheek for each subject throughout the study. Higher values indicate greater hydration.
SecondarySkin Elasticity.12, 24 weeks
Skin elasticity was measured with a DermaLab device (Cortex Technology, Denmark) equipped with a skin elasticity probe. Pressure required to raise the skin 1mm was recorded. Measurements were performed on the upper cheeks and care was taken to use the same location for all measurements. Final measurements were the average of left and right cheeks. When the product is a moisturizer, lower pressures are indicative of efficacy.
SecondaryArea Ratio - Analysis of Skin Replicas of Crow's Feet.24 weeks
An illuminator is used to cross illuminate the specimen (silicone mold replicas) perpendicular to the major lines which accentuate the surface details. The resulting image which consists of a series of shadows that directly correspond to the pattern of wrinkles is digitized for analysis. One can measure changes in skin surface topography by selecting an area range (shadow size) that allows one to directly determine the projected area of the shadowed region associated with the wrinkles and major lines. The Area Ratio is the area of the shadows. The higher the ratio, the greater the wrinkling.
SecondaryClinical Skin Evaluation.12, 24 weeks
A clinical skin evaluation of the face was performed by a dermatologist using 8 scales (skin hydration, radiance, roughness, spots, laxity, skin tone homogeneity, softness, relief (variations in depth)). The individual scores were totalled (worst = 0, best = 47) and the total score was used for analyses.
SecondarySensitivity of the Face Evaluated by Subject.12, 24 weeks
Sensitivity of the entire face evaluated by the subject was performed using 4 different 10 cm visual analog scales (pruritus, tingling, burning, tightness). Each score was analysed separately. Each score is from 0 = absent to 10 important.
SecondaryFacial Skin Self-evaluation.12, 24 weeksA visual analog scale of 13 evaluations were performed by the subject. Scale is from 1 - 10 for each evaluation individually evaluated. 0 = absent, 10 = important.
SecondaryTolerance Evaluated by Investigator.12, 24 weeks
Tolerance was studied by evaluating scaling, dryness, erythema and burning/itching sensation on a 5-point scale. Scaling, Dryness and Erythema Evaluations \- None (0) - Very Severe = (4) Burning and Itching Evaluation Scale * None (0) = Normal, no discomfort * Mild (1) = Slight discomfort that is not bothersome * Moderate (2) = Discomfort that is somewhat bothersome * Marked (3) = Discomfort that is bothersome and that occasionally interferes with normal daily activities * Severe (4) = Continuous discomfort that interferes with normal daily activities

SECONDARYPhotographic Evaluation by a Panel of Blinded Dermatologists.24 weeks
Analysis was intent to treat (ITT). Photographs taken at early termination visit were not available for every early termination subject as some subjects refused to have their photographs taken. Thus, early termination and lost to follow-up subjects were excluded from this analysis. The total number of subjects included in the ITT analysis was 92.

Only the per protocol (PP) population was considered for this analysis. Early termination and lost subjects were excluded from this analysis. Furthermore, some replicas of subjects who completed the study could not be analyzed with precision and were consequently excluded from the analysis by the laboratory.
