About this study

Official title: A Multi-Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of LIPO-202 (Salmeterol Xinafoate for Injection) for the Reduction of Submental Subcutaneous Fat

Study LIPO-202-CL-31 is a multi center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two different doses of LIPO-202 versus placebo on submental bulging due to subcutaneous fat. Approximately 150 participants of either gender who have a "Moderate Bulge" or "Large Bulge" in the submental fat (on Patient-Reported Submental Bulging Scale [PR-SBS] and Clinician-Reported Submental Bulging Scale [CR-SBS]) will be recruited for this study.

Read the detailed description

Potential subjects will present and complete the Screening Visit. All qualifying subjects will be randomized to one of three treatment groups and treated with up to 30 subcutaneous injections of the assigned study drug into submental fat, once a week for 8 weeks. Upon completion of treatment visits, subject will return to the clinic for a follow-up visit and end of study visit, one and four weeks after the last treatment. The number and pattern of injections will be based on the area (cm x cm) of submental fat at baseline. At each visit the subjects will also undergo an examination of the treatment area, collection of vital signs and questioning about possible adverse events (AEs).

The study consists of 11 visits: a Screening Visit, eight Treatment Visits, a Follow up Visit and an End of Study Visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Safety as measured by number of subjects with adverse events.

    Measured: 12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)

  2. Safety as measured by the number of subjects with abnormal post baseline shifts in laboratory results.

    Measured: 12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)

  3. Change from baseline in the patient reported submental bulging scale.

    The self-rating scale is 5-point scale that the subject evaluates their submental fat.

    Measured: 12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)

  4. Change from baseline in the clinician reported submental bulging scale

    The clinician scale is 5-point rating scale in which the clinician evaluates the subject's submental fat.

    Measured: 12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)

  5. Change in submental fat thickness measured with calipers (mm).

    Measured: 12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing LIPO-202 in people with Submental Fat, run by Neothetics, Inc at 11 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Safety as measured by number of subjects with adverse events. (time frame: 12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 Oct 2017.
