Coming third behind the duo is American hurdler, Tia Jones, who ran a time of 12.51s.
Just 72 hours earlier in Ostrava, the trio of Amusan, Camacho-Quinn, and Jones were also in action at the World Continental meeting where the Puerto Rican carried the day.
However, while Jones finished ahead of Amusan in Ostrava, the reverse was the case for Lausanne on Friday.
The trio will once again battle in Stockholm, Sweden on Sunday.
Amusan will be hoping to hit top form before defending her title at the World Athletics Championship later this year in Budapest, Hungary.
