An interventional study of Prototypes (815-v1 001) to (815-v1 050) and Prototype (815-v1 051) to (815-v1 100) in Lentigo Solar, sponsored by Cryonove Pharma. Completed at 1 site in Georgia. Open to participants aged 30 Years to 75 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-06-15.

CS5_1 study aim to evaluate the tolerance and to adjust the mode of administration of 4 different conditions of cryotherapy treatments applied on the brown spots of the face and hand with 3 prototypes.
Each treatment corresponds to a combination of a specific sequence of a cryogenic spray and of a frequency of application.
The study will evaluate 3 prototypes :
Rational:
Solar lentigo is a harmless patch of darkened skin. It results from exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which causes local proliferation of melanocytes and accumulation of melanin within the skin cells (keratinocytes). Solar lentigos or lentigines are very common, especially in people over the age of 40 years. Solar lentigines are found on sun-exposed sites, particularly the face or the back of hands.
Cryotherapy is more and more used to improve skin appearance and currently used to treat lentigo spot. However, the cryogenic gas (conventional cryotherapy - liquid nitrogen) creates a dermabrasion of the skin surface and person receiving this kind of treatment presents an impaired skin during a few days following the treatment as temporary damage of stratum corneum, erythema, scars, burns.
Following the side effects occurring after conventional cryotherapy application, the Sponsor has developed some devices using difluoroethane, manufactured by CRYONOVE PHARMA, already available on the local and international markets, e.g. CRYOBEAUTY MAINS and CRYOBEAUTY CORPS.
To continue it research and development activities, it seems interesting for the sponsor to select other sequences of a cryogenic spray which could be used for lentigo treatment with a same benefit for the consumers without any safety outcomes.
Design:
The study is a proof of performance designed to be interventional, monocentric, randomized and double blinded.
Intervention:
Three prototypes of devices are evaluated in 4 different conditions. A total of 168 brown spots are needed (84 brown spots on the face and 84 brown spots on the hands). Each treatment corresponds to a combination of a specific sequence of a cryogenic spray and of a frequency of application.
Prototypes (815-v1 001) to (815-v1 200) will be applied on brown spots located on the face and/or hands. Each spot will be treated six times by a defined prototype (always the same prototype on the same spot all along the study) according to specific frequencies (evry day, every week or every 2 weeks).The application order of the different prototypes will be defined by randomization.
Prior to any study device application, the dermatologist will assess the adverse events and will decide if the period between two consecutive applications should be extended or not.
The dermatologist will verify that the skin has not been treated by cosmetic products (no presence of cream that could interfere with the treatment) and is dry.
An operator previously trained by the dermatologist will apply the study device to the patient's face or/and hand.
Subjects will be lying down, and the prototypes will be administered upside down for the applications on the face and sitting for the applications on the hands. For the application on the hands, the hands will be placed flat on the table and the prototypes will be applied upside down. During applications on the face, subjects will wear diving goggles protecting the eyes from cryogenic gas.
The patient follow-up visits are from Day 0 to 6 months.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Change from baseline skin hyperpigmentation
The evaluation will be performed visually on the selected spots. A scale in 6 points (0 to 5) will be used : 0=Clear of hyperpigmentation; 1= Almost clear of hyperpigmentation; 2=mild, but noticeable hyperpigmentation; 3=moderate hyperpigmentation (medium brown in quality); 4=severe hyperpigmentation (dark brown in quality); 5= very severe hyperpigmentation (very dark brown, almost black in quality).
Time frame: Day 0, Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, Day 35, Day 42, Day 49, Day 56, Day 70,Day 84 and Day 0 + 6 months
Change from baseline skin hypopigmentation
The evaluation will be performed visually on the selected spots. A scale in 5 points will be used (0 to 4): 0=no hypopigmented lesion; 1= very slight area of hypopigmentation of very small size and very slightly fairer than the surrounding skin; 2= slight area of hypopigmentation of small size and slightly fairer than the surrounding skin; 3= moderate : area of hypopigmentation of moderate size and much fairer than the surrounding skin; 4= severe : area of hypopigmentation of large size and much fairer than the surrounding skin.
Time frame: Day 0, Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, Day 35, Day 42, Day 49, Day 56, Day 70,Day 84 and Day 0 + 6 months
Change from baseline skin appearance
The evaluation will be performed visually on the selected spots and surrounded spotless skin area around the spot skin to assess erythema, oedema blister, bubble, scars, micro-bruise, hematoma, dryness,desquamation, fissures/cracks, roughness,crust, pink spots and papules. A scale in 5 points (0 to 4) will be used : 0=none; 1=very mild; 2=mild; 3=moderate; 4=severe.
Time frame: Day 0, Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, Day 35, Day 42, Day 49, Day 56, Day 70,Day 84 and Day 0 + 6 months
Change from baseline skin sensation
The evaluation will be performed visually on the selected spots and around the spot skin to assess tightness, stinging, itching, warm and burning sensation. A scale in 5 points (0 to 4) will be used : 0=none; 1=very mild; 2=mild; 3=moderate; 4=severe.
Time frame: Day 0, Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, Day 35, Day 42, Day 49, Day 56, Day 70,Day 84 and Day 0 + 6 months
Self-assesment of pain by VAS
The pain of the treatment will be assessed by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at time T0 on the treated area. The pain assessed is that felt during the application of the devices. It will be collected from the patient within 5 minutes of application. The VAS is made up of a 10-centimeter line anchored by two ends of the pain. One end is the "maximum pain imaginable". The other end is "no pain."
Time frame: Day 0
Change from baseline spots visibility
Standardized photographs will be taken using a Dermatoscope C-Cube® (PIXIENCE). The capture will be taken on the previously selected lentigo (and spotless surrounding each spot in the same acquisition) and a spotless area (one on face (same as clinical evaluation) and far from a lentigo spot).
Time frame: Day 0, Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, Day 35, Day 42, Day 49, Day 56, Day 70,Day 84 and Day 0 + 6 months
Self assessment of skin appearance
The skin appearance will be assessed by subjects through a 3 items questionnaire. It allows obtaining the subjective appraisal of subject on the treatments using the following 5-point scale: * agree, * quite agree * neither agree, nor disagree * quite disagree * disagree. The items are the following: * The spot seems clearer. * The size of the spot seems reduced. * The spot seems less visible.
Time frame: Day 0, Day 7, Day 14, Day 21, Day 28, Day 35, Day 42, Day 49, Day 56, Day 70,Day 84 and Day 0 + 6 months
Ran from Oct 2022 to primary completion in Jun 2023, 7 months.
Of 27 industry-sponsored interventional studies with no phase under Hyperpigmentation, half reached primary completion within 3 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 3 and three quarters within 10. This study's 7 months is above that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 64 studies reached it within 7 months; a quarter within 3 and three quarters within 25.
