Protocol summary
-
Study aim
-
To determine efficacy and safety of cultured fibroblasts in the treatment of nasolabial folds
-
Design
-
phase 3, 60 nasolabial wrinkle patients. Block randomization, placebo controlled, parallel
-
Settings and conduct
-
Study site: Royan instirute, Tehran, Iran. After including the eligible patients and receiving their written consent, wrinkle assessment are evaluated by the physician and the patient. 2D imaging and ultrasonographic findings are recorded and the sickness of epiderm and derm plus dermal density will be measured. The patients and outcome assessors are blinded to the interventions.
-
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
-
Inclusion criteria: 30 to 60 years, nasolabial folds, WAS 3to5, length of wrinkle line 12 to 15 cm, written consent to participate/Exclusion criteria: chronic disease,pregnancy , lactation, cancer, HIV, HCV or HBV positive, history of cell therapy, skin interventions in the last 6 months, history of organ transplantation or blood transfusion, immunosuppressive or cytotoxic use in the last 6 months, history of skin mass or benign skin disease, history of anticoagulants use, mesotherapy or skin surgery, injection of permanent fillers, injection of botulinum before the end of efficacy time, HSV history, active infection at the site, heavy diet for weight change, collagen or fibroblast producing diseases, allergy to bovine products, allergy to streptomycin or penicillin, using retinoid drugs during the last 6 months, hypo/hyperthyroidism, history of severe mental problems
-
Intervention groups
-
control group:placebo 0.1 ml/cm in each injection
Intervention group: Fibroblast 20millions of cells/ml involume of 0.1ml/cm in each injection
-
Main outcome variables
-
remission rate (with at least 2 units change in WAS) based on physician's evaluation and images comparison before and 9 months after the injection

Randomized
-
Randomization description
-
Randomization list will be generated using online source: https://www.sealedenvelope.com. Block randomization with block size 4 results in generation of 15 blocks. After the randomization list generation, every patient will be assigned a unique identification code.
All the staff conducting the study will be blinded to randomization list. Opaque sealed consecutively numbered envelopes will be used for the allocation concealment process.Each envelope will be opened after assuring eligibility of the participant and giving written signed consent form.
-
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
-
Double blinded
-
Blinding description
-
patients will receive similar 100 units, gauge 30 syringes in both groups.
Those who conduct the injections are different form those who conduct the examinations and patients' assessments.
The packages of investigational products will be labelled by unique codes.
