A Study To Assess the Safety and Effects of OnabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX) Intramuscular Injection in Adult Participants With Platysma Prominence

AbbVie426 enrolled

Overview

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effects of onabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX) for the temporary improvement in the appearance of platysma prominence. Study doctors will randomize participants into 1 of the 2 groups, called treatment arms. There is a 1 in 2 chance that a participant will be assigned to placebo. Around 400 participants will be enrolled in the study across approximately 35 sites in USA, Belgium, Canada, Germany and the UK. Participants will receive a single treatment of intramuscular injection of onabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX) or placebo on Day 1 during this 4 month long study. Participants will attend regular monthly visits during the study at the study site.

Number of Participants With Adverse Events

An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.

Time frame: Enrollment to Day 120

Composite Achievement of Grade 1 or 2 (Minimal or Mild) and at Least a 2-Grade Improvement From Baseline Based on Both Investigator's Assessment Using C-APPS and Participant's Self-Assessment Using P-APPS, at Maximum Contraction at Day 14

The Clinician Allergan Platysma Prominence Scale (C-APPS) evaluates platysma prominence severity and is a static measurement encompassing the investigator's visual examination of the platysma muscle at maximum contraction, ranging from 1 - Minimal to 5- Extreme. The Participant Allergan Platysma Prominence Scale (P-APPS) evaluates platysma prominence severity and is a single-item measure that is accompanied by a 5-grade photonumeric scale for participants to self-assess the severity of their platysma prominence at maximum contraction, ranging from 1 - Minimal to 5 - Extreme.

Time frame: Day 14

Achievement of at Least a 2-grade Improvement From Baseline Based on the Investigator's Assessment Using C-APPS at Maximum Contraction at Day 14

The C-APPS evaluates platysma prominence severity and is a static measurement encompassing the investigator's visual examination of the platysma muscle at maximum contraction, ranging from 1 - Minimal to 5- Extreme.

Time frame: Day 14

Achievement of at Least a 2-grade Improvement From Baseline Based on the Participant's Self-Assessment Using P-APPS at Maximum Contraction at Day 14

The P-APPS evaluates platysma prominence severity and is a single-item measure that is accompanied by a 5-grade photonumeric scale for participants to self-assess the severity of their platysma prominence at maximum contraction, ranging from 1 - Minimal to 5 - Extreme.

Time frame: Day 14

Secondary Outcomes

Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Grade 1 or 2 (Minimal or Mild) According to Investigator's Assessment Using C-APPS at Maximum Contraction at Days 14, 30, 60, 90, and 120

Time frame: Day 14, 30, 60, 90, and 120

Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Grade 1 or 2 (Minimal or Mild) According to Participant's Self-Assessment Using P-APPS at Maximum Contraction at Days 14, 30, 60, 90, and 120

Time frame: Day 14, 30, 60, 90, and 120

Percentage of Participants With Responses of "Satisfied" or "Very Satisfied" on the Appearance of Neck and Lower Face Questionnaire (ANLFQ): Satisfaction (Follow-up) Item 5 (Effect of Treatment) at Day 14

The ANLFQ: Satisfaction scale assesses how satisfied the participants are with the treatment they received for the appearance of their neck and lower face. Item 5 is a verbal descriptor scale ranging from 1 (Very satisfied) to 5 (Very dissatisfied).

Time frame: Day 14

Percentage of Participants With Responses of 'Not at All Bothered' or 'A Little Bothered' on the Bother Assessment Scale - Platysma Prominence (BAS-PP) Scale Item 2 (Jawline) at Day 14

The BAS-PP Scale is a 2-item measure that asks participants to rate how bothered they are by the appearance of their vertical neck bands (Item 1) and jawline (Item 2) where items are rated from 1 (Not at all bothered) to 5 (Extremely bothered).

Time frame: Day 14

Percentage of Participants With Responses of 'Not at All Bothered' or 'A Little Bothered' on the BAS-PP Scale Item 1 (Vertical Neck Bands) at Day 14

Change From Baseline on the Appearance of Neck and Lower Face Questionnaire (ANLFQ): Impacts Summary Score at Day 14

The ANLFQ: Impacts scale assesses the psychosocial impact due to the appearance of the neck and lower face. All items are rated on a 5-point Verbal Descriptor Scale ranging from 1 (Never) to 5 (All of the time), with higher summary scores (range: 7-35) indicating greater negative psychosocial impact from the appearance of the neck and lower face. For change from baseline in the ANLFQ: Impacts summary score, positive values indicate worsening and negative values indicate improvement in the psychosocial impact.
