Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of IPN59011 in Improving the Appearance of Moderate to Severe Upper Facial Lines.

Overview

The purpose of the protocol, is to assess the safety and efficacy profile of IPN59011 compared to a placebo. IPN59011 is expected to work longer than product already marketed in the treatment of subjects with moderate to severe facial wrinkles.

Arms, Groups and Cohorts

  • Experimental: Dose escalation
    • One single injection of study medication (IPN59011 or Placebo) will be injected locally. IPN59011 is injected in a dose-escalation manner. In total for this stage at least 40 subjects.
  • Experimental: Dose ranging
    • Up to two IPN59011dose(s) groups will be included in parallel groups versus Azzalure group and placebo group. One single injection of study medication will be injected locally into several sites. In total for this stage at least 70 subjects.
  • Experimental: Additional dose ranging
    • Dose-ranging for three additional placebo-controlled parallel groups. One single injection of study medication will be injected locally into several sites, concomitantly and non-concomitantly. In total for this stage at least 110 subjects.
  • Experimental: Total dose for Upper Facial Lines
    • One single injection of study medication will be injected locally into Upper Facial Lines. In total for this stage approximately 48 subjects.

    • Time Frame: From the baseline to the end of the study (9 months)
