Hyaluronic Acid Filler for Dorsal Finger Volume Loss
NCT02793739 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Fingers are a part of the body that are often subject to increased signs of aging due to physical use, trauma and exposure to the environment. The FDA's recent approval of a dermal filler, calcium hydroxylapatite, in hands has led to increased patient demand for hand fillers which, in turn, has led to the question of rejuvenation of the dorsal fingers. Due to the different anatomy of the fingers than the dorsal hand plus the new demand to improve the entire hand plus the finger area, we aim to characterize the best approach. Youthful fingers are devoid of wrinkles and often have fuller contours thus hiding the "knuckles" (proximal and distal interphalangeal joints). With aging and loss of subcutaneous tissue volume, fingers become wrinkled, look more skeletal, almost emaciated, and joints become much more prominent, all aesthetic features often disliked by patients. By augmenting the volume in the dorsal fingers, it is possible that the visibility of such bony structures will be decreased, wrinkles will become smoother, and a more youthful appearance of the fingers will be restored. There have been no published reports, to these investigators' knowledge, of the use of injectable filler into the dorsal fingers for three-dimensional volume correction. The use of exogenous hyaluronic acid (HA) filler in the fingers would be off-label. Given that HA filler has been used safely and effectively in many areas of three-dimensional volume restoration throughout the body, the investigators believe the HA filler may be used to effectively and safely correct volume loss in the fingers. The investigators hope that this study will present current, state of the art, never before reported technique, safety, efficacy and patient satisfaction of HA filler in this region.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT02793739
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT02793739 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 20 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Marmur Medical, which has 1 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Personal Satisfaction appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Hyaluronic acid filler injection is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT02793739 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include New York. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
