Sirona Biochem Corp. (SBM) has begun the clinical trial for its novel anti-aging compound TFC-1326.
The trial will take place in Paris and is designed to assess the compound’s efficacy in reversing aging facial skin, including restoring lost volume (plumping) and reducing fine wrinkles.
The formulation is a cream base with TFC-1326 at a concentration of 1.0 per cent and no other active ingredients.
The trial design was done with the assistance of a leading organization in commercial aesthetics.
20 participants, aged 40-65 with specific signs of aging, will be involved.
Participants will begin in weeks 1 through 3 as a rolling start and continue for a 12-week period using the product twice daily. Ten parameters will be measured using advanced technology.
These include skin radiance, skin laxity, antioxidant analysis, anti-inflammation, wrinkles, skin plumping and product tolerance. The clinical trial is fully financed, owned and controlled by Sirona.
“We’ve been conducting R&D on the anti-aging project for many years and have seen amazing efficacy and unique activity in cell studies,” noted Dr. Howard Verrico, CEO.
“To make the transition to human skin will be a major achievement for the company and the science team in France, and the incredible work that has been done so far has shown that these compounds are unlike anything else available on the market today,” he added.
Sirona Biochem Corp. is a cosmetic ingredient and drug discovery company with proprietary platform technology. Sirona specializes in stabilizing carbohydrate molecules with the goal of improving efficacy and safety.
