Description of intervention(s) / exposure
We have two products - CKC E1 and CKC E2.
CKC-E1: Contains CKC Adipose mesenchymal stem cell secretion-derived growth factors and cytokines.
CKC-E2: Contains CKC Dental mesenchymal stem cell secretion-derived growth factors and cytokines.
These stem cell secretions have great cosmetic potential and form the basis of our facial cream.
In this randomised, placebo controlled split face double blind study, 24 healthy female volunteers, aged between 35-60 years (inclusive) will be recruited. Prior to undergoing study procedures, the participants will be required to sign an informed consent form. Following this, participants will be assessed to determine their eligibility.
Qualified participants will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to one of the two following cohorts:
Cohort 1 (n=12) – CKC-E1 or placebo to be applied twice daily on each side of the face (right
or left at random) for 8 weeks.
Cohort 2 (n=12) – CKC-E2 or placebo to be applied twice daily on each side of the face (right
or left at random) for 8 weeks.
Participants will self-apply the investigational products to half face only twice daily (morning and evening) after cleansing the skin, for 8 weeks. This includes applying the assigned investigational product twice daily (morning and evening) for 8 weeks on one side of the face and a placebo cream (which does not contain the stem cell derived growth factors and cytokines) on the other side, which serves as control. Participants should wash their hands between applications to avoid contamination between the two products. Participants will be blinded to which is the investigational product or placebo.
Participants will be instructed as follows:
1. Store the creams at room temperature. Excessive temperatures (over 35°C) to be avoided.
2. Cleanse skin as usual with water or your standard cleanser.
3. Imagining a line from the top of the forehead down to the chin through the middle of the nose, apply one cream (approximately half fingertip or small pea size) on the right side of the face and massage gently until completely absorbed
4. Wash hands.
5. Apply other cream (approximately half fingertip or small pea size) on the left side of the face and massage gently until completely absorbed
6. Wash hands
7. Follow with sun protection (daytime only) and/or makeup as needed
8. Repeat morning and night

On visit days, participants must not apply investigational products after cleansing the skin. Last product application should be the night before the next visit.

Skin hydration and elasticity assessments will be conducted at Baseline (Day 0) and at Week 4 and 8. Skin roughness and skin visual properties assessments will be conducted at Baseline (Day 0) and Week 8. The main portion of the study, i.e cream application will be at each patient's own location.
Skin assessments will be conducted at an AGPAL Accredited clinic by a GP with at least 30 years of experience, in an appropriately temperature and humidity-controlled room. It is anticipated that approximately 20 minutes are required for skin to equilibrate to the required temperature. This will provide standardised conditions for all participants being assessed.
Hydration and elasticity measurements will be taken on zygomatic bone area; while skin replica for the purpose of image analysis, will be taken on the left and right outer corner of the eye (crow’s feet). Visual skin properties will be based on front and side facial images taken at Baseline and Week 8 only.
Through this study, we expect to contribute greatly to the development of cosmetic products in skin care.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 324603 0
To ascertain the effects of two different CKC creams on skin hydration taken on zygomatic bone area as per assessments recorded at time points listed below.

On each scheduled assessment day (± 3 days), participants will arrive in time for skin temperature equilibration (~20 minutes) in an appropriately temperature and humidity-controlled room at the facility.
The following parameters will be measured:
Skin Hydration by Corneometer® CM 825 ((Courage + Khazaka electronic GmbH)
The study will utilize standardized equipment for objective measurements. Each primary efficacy measure will be evaluated at two sites: left and right sides of the face (zygomatic bone area).
The Corneometer® CM 825 determines the hydration level of the skin surface (stratum corneum). The measurement is based on capacitance measurement of a dielectric medium, here the stratum corneum, the uppermost layer of the skin. With increasing hydration, its di-electric properties change. The measurement principle is based on the fact that water has a higher dielectric constant (81) than most other substances (mainly < 7). The Corneometer® CM 825 measures the change in the dielectric constant due to skin surface hydration changing the capacitance of a precision capacitor.

Timepoint [1] 324603 0
Day 0 (baseline, before cream application) as compared to Week 4 - 4 weeks post first cream application and Week 8 - 8 weeks post first cream application, (which is also the primary time point) are the time points for this assessment.
Primary outcome [2] 324604 0
To ascertain the effects of two different CKC anti-ageing creams on skin elasticity taken on zygomatic bone area as per assessments taken at time points listed below.
On each scheduled assessment day (± 3 days), participants will arrive in time for skin temperature equilibration (~20 minutes) in an appropriately temperature and humidity-controlled room at the facility.
The following parameters will be measured:

Skin Elasticity by Cutometer® Dual MPA 580 (Courage + Khazaka electronic GmbH)
The Cutometer® Dual MPA 580 (Courage + Khazaka electronic GmbH) is a standard method to measure elasticity based on suction. Negative pressure created by a vacuum pump within the device draws the skin into the aperture of the probe. Inside the probe, the penetration depth is determined by a non-contact optical measuring system consisting of a light source and a light receptor as well as two prisms facing each other which project the light from transmitter to receptor. The light intensity varies due to the penetration depth of the skin.

On each scheduled assessment day (± 3 days), participants will arrive in time for skin temperature equilibration (~20 minutes) in an appropriately temperature and humidity-controlled room at the facility.
The following parameters will be measured:
Skin texture by Image Analysis of digital photos (except Week 4)
Image Pro Premium is an image analysis software used to objectively analyse the deeper lines and macro wrinkles such as crow’s feet. The measurement is based on digital photos of the left and right outer corner of the eye (crow’s feet) which serve as a basis for different arithmetical calculations (length, depth and area of the wrinkles). Skin properties to be evaluated include texture and wrinkle analysis by image analysis of digital photos of the left and right outer corner of the eye (crow’s feet).

Secondary outcome 1:
Safety assessment of the cream(s)
Participants at their location will themselves record the incidence and severity of any adverse events that occur during the study, and that are related to the products in question i.e cream containing CKC-E1 and CKC-E2 when applied to left and right sides of the face. Adverse events will be assessed by the PI and recorded in the Case Report Form.
Adverse events will be captured from time of first dose of investigational product. Participants will be queried at in-clinic visits about the occurrence of adverse events using non-leading questions such as, “Have you had any changes in your health since your last study visit?”
For instance, at each visit the Investigator will score each side of the face for any signs of irritation according to the following scale:
Erythema
0.0 = No response.
0.5 = Minimal erythema.
1.0 = Erythema.
2.0 = Erythema, induration.
4.0 = Erythema + induration + vesicles.
4.0 = Severe reaction with erythema, induration, vesicles (may be weeping), pustules.
At times designated on the Schedule of Time and Events, participants will complete questionnaires assessing tolerability towards the creams and any adverse events recorded thereafter.

Yes, skin irritation is considered an adverse event. Each participant is subjected to 24 hour patch test with the product before undergoing full treatment and if skin irritation is observed, the participant will be excluded. Other examples of Adverse events include skin rashes, redness, swelling etc which are related directly to the application of the cream.

Adverse events will be tabulated, including categorical information of interest such as onset and resolution times, time of onset relative to dose, severity at onset, maximum severity, causal relationship to investigational product, and action will be taken accordingly.
Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are defined as any AE that started after the first dose of investigational product or started prior to the first dose but increased in severity or frequency after dosing. The incidence of TEAEs will be presented by system organ class and preferred term. Adverse events will also be summarized by severity and relationship to the IP. The incidence of AEs leading to withdrawal from the study will be presented.
Listings of any serious adverse events (SAEs), deaths, and AEs or abnormal laboratory values leading to discontinuation of a participant from the study will be presented.
Timepoint [2] 385153 0

Study design
Purpose of the study
Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
This is an double blind study. Neither the study staff nor the participant will know the treatment assignment. The study blind may be broken only if the safety of a participant is at risk and the treatment plan for that participant depends on which study product she received. If unblinding is required, the study personnel may access the identity of the administered study dose by opening the sealed envelope corresponding to the participant’s randomisation number. The sealed randomisation envelopes should be stored in a locked area with controlled access until required to break the blind in the event of an emergent condition in a treated participant. Unless the participant is at immediate risk, the Investigator must make diligent attempts to contact the sponsor before unblinding the participant’s data. If a participant’s data are unblinded without the prior knowledge of the Sponsor, the Investigator must notify the Sponsor as soon as possible and no later than the next business morning. All circumstances surrounding a premature unblinding must be clearly documented.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
A computer-generated randomisation code will be utilised to assign participants to each cohort and to apply the investigational products to the right or left side of the face.

STATISTICAL METHODS
1) SAMPLE SIZE DETERMINATION
As the study is exploratory in nature, no formal statistical calculations have been performed.
2) DEFINITION OF ANALYSIS POPULATIONS
Two analysis populations are defined as follows:
• Safety population: all participants who are treated with investigational product. The safety population is the population used for all safety analyses, and participants are analysed “as treated”.
• Full Analysis Set (FAS): all participants who are successfully screened and randomised and receive at least 1 dose of investigational product, and provide at least 1 set of post-baseline pain assessments. The FAS population is the primary population for the efficacy analysis. Membership in the FAS population will be confirmed with blinded review, and participants are analysed “as randomised”.
• Per-Protocol (PP) population: participants in the FAS who have completed the study and have no significant protocol deviations that would affect interpretation of their efficacy data. The PP population is the supportive population for the efficacy analysis. Membership in the PP population will be confirmed with blinded review, and participants are analysed “as randomised”.
3) STATISTICAL ANALYSES
Descriptive summaries of safety and efficacy variables will be provided where appropriate. For continuous variables, the number of observations (n), the mean, standard deviation, median, minimum, and maximum will be tabulated by treatment groups. For categorical variables, the counts and percentages (where percentages are appropriate) of each value will be tabulated by treatment groups.
4) BASELINE CHARACTERISTICS
Participant characteristics (e.g., sex, body weight, race and ethnicity) will be summarised descriptively. Demographic data will be summarized and tabulated. Continuous variables will be summarized using number of observations (n), mean, standard deviation (SD), coefficient of variation (CV [%]), median, minimum, and maximum. Frequencies and percentages will be reported for all categorical data.
5) INSTRUMENTAL MEASUREMENT AND SKIN REPLICA ANALYSIS
To analyse the skin replicas, digital photographs will be taken in a light-proof room. The only source of illumination will be an LED lamp positioned perpendicular to the main wrinkle lines, illuminating them from a shallow angle. In doing so, shadows are projected relative to a wrinkle’s area, length, and depth. The camera will be fixed to a tripod, pointing directly downward in order to face the replica in a perpendicular manner. The replica will be held in place using four small protrusions to ensure consistency in position between photographs. Each image will be processed in GIMP - cropping, conversion to greyscale, normalisation and image size reduction operations were performed in order to facilitate image analysis.
After images are processed in this fashion, they will be imported into Image Pro Premier (IPP) for image analysis. The specified analysis area will be restricted to a 2.5cm diameter circle in the middle of each replica. Any areas of the image with a brightness value of 100 units or less will be selected, with adjacent pixels defining a single object. Each object for each replica will be measured in several different dimensions, including object area and length. The analysis area will then be measured for roughness (heterogeneity) and number of shadow objects present.
Both instrumental measures and replica data will be transferred to SAS for analysis. Descriptive statistics will be calculated and averaged over participants for each measure and visit. These averages will be analysed inferentially using repeated measures analysis of covariance within a mixed models framework. Inferential statistical analysis will be performed in order to assess if each parameter (the dependent measure) varies linearly over time. The Baseline value (Visit 1) of the measure, in addition to age, skin phototype and skin sensitivity will be used as covariates within each measure.
Adjusted means, calculated as Least Squared Means in the analyses, will be presented in the tables with probabilities less than 0.05 indicating significant differences between selected means. The adjusted means between the first and last visit will be compared using a t-test to see if there was an overall change at the end of the study. The final timepoint of each group will also be compared in a similar manner. Output for adjusted mean change will be presented in figures as the difference between the first and final visits. All graphs will show adjusted mean values with standard error bars for each area and time point, based on the results of the mixed models analysis. Least Square Means will be reported as adjusted means in the tables.
Change from Baseline will be calculated and descriptive statistics will also be calculated for each measure. This includes number of observations (n), mean, percentage change, standard deviation (SD), minimum, median and maximum values for each parameter’s value and its change from Baseline.
6) SAFETY AND TOLERABILITY
A. ADVERSE EVENTS
Adverse events will be tabulated, including categorical information of interest such as onset and resolution times, time of onset relative to dose, severity at onset, maximum severity, causal relationship to investigational product, and action taken.
Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are defined as any AE that started after the first dose of investigational product or started prior to the first dose but increased in severity or frequency after dosing. The incidence of TEAEs will be presented by system organ class and preferred term. Adverse events will also be summarized by severity and relationship to the IP. The incidence of AEs leading to withdrawal from the study will be presented. Listings of any serious adverse events (SAEs), deaths, and AEs or abnormal laboratory values leading to discontinuation of a participant from the study will be presented.
B. VITAL SIGNS
Individual vital sign measurements (SBP, DBP, and HR) will be listed by measurement time and summarized using descriptive statistics.
C. SKIN EXAMINATION
Skin examination will be summarized. Any clinically significant change from baseline in the skin examination may be recorded as an AE if deemed appropriate by the PI or Sponsor.
D. CONCOMITANT MEDICATIONS
Prior and concomitant medications will be identified using the most current version of the World Health Organization (WHO) Drug dictionary. The incidence of prior and concomitant medication use will be summarized.
E. PARTICIPANT QUESTIONNAIRE
Participant questionnaire data will be summarized by timepoint(s).

Summary
Brief summary
This is a pilot study to test the skin care effects of growth factors derived from stem cells isolated from either fast tissue – CKC-E1 or from dental pulp tissue – CKC-E2. Both of these are incorporated into two CKC creams for topical human application. Benefits include reduction/removal of fine lines and wrinkles – crows’ feet and improvement in overall skin elasticity and skin hydration. CKC topical creams in the dosages under study are likely to be well tolerated; therefore, the risk/benefit appears satisfactory based on anecdotal evidence.
