About this study

Official title: Non-Invasive Reduction of Abdominal Fat Utilizing the JUNO Applicator

This study is being performed to reduce unwanted abdominal fat using a new applicator for the Zeltiq System.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of the study is to achieve a discernable change to the contour of the abdominal area treated with the JUNO applicator that is consistent with that documented during a clinical study of a previous applicator used to treat lovehandles.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of Pre-treatment Images Correctly Identified

    Change in the treated vs. untreated areas will be assessed by observation of changes in surface contour and/or fat volume by an independent photo review of pre-treatment and post-treatment images of the treated areas. Reviewers will be practicing dermatologists or plastic surgeons. All reviewers will be blinded to post-treatment vs. baseline untreated area. The order in which images will be presented will be randomized; for each subject placement of the baseline, pre-treatment image will be randomized for each pair of subject images. Reviewers will be asked to select the baseline photos for each subject photo series and record selections on a data collection form. The expected success rate is an average 80% correct identification by the three reviewers.

    Measured: 16 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in the Fat Layer of the Treated Area as Measured by Ultrasound

    Change in the fat layer thickness will be calculated by comparison of pre-treatment and 16 week post-treatment ultrasound measurements taken in the area treated with the device, and in the adjacent untreated control area. The Sponsor's standardized techniques for obtaining ultrasound imaging will be used. Overall fat layer thickness changes were normalized for each subject by subtracting the change in control from the change in treated area to remove the influence of weight variations. Results indicate the fat layer reduction in mm.

    Measured: 16 weeks

  2. Subject Satisfaction

    Subject satisfaction with the Zeltiq procedure as determined by the results of a subjects satisfaction questionnaire at the 16 week follow up visit.

    Measured: 16 weeks

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of Pre-treatment Images Correctly Identified (time frame: 16 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Dec 2020.
