Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 22 to 50 years
  • Women only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Female subjects > 22 years of age and < 50 years of age.
  • Presence of suitable treatable subcutaneous fat on the medial infragluteal folds, which in the investigator's opinion may benefit from CoolSculpting to potentially create a lifted appearance to the buttocks.

Who cannot join

  • Subject has skin laxity in the area of intended treatment which in the opinion of the investigator, may result in an unacceptable aesthetic result.
  • Subject has had a surgical procedure(s) in the area of intended treatment.
  • History of a fat reduction procedure (e.g., liposuction, surgery, lipolytic agents, etc.), in or around the area of intended treatment.
  • Known history of cryoglobulinemia, cold urticaria, cold agglutinin disease or paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria.
  • Known history of Raynaud's disease, or any known condition with a response to cold exposure that limits blood flow to the skin.
  • History of bleeding disorder or is taking any medication that in the investigator's opinion may increase the subject's risk of bruising.
Show all 16Show fewer
  • Subject needs to administer, or has a known history of subcutaneous injections into the area of intended treatment (e.g., heparin, insulin) within the past month.
  • Currently taking or has taken diet pills or weight control supplements within the past month.
  • Any dermatological conditions, such as scars, infection, in the location of the treatment area that may interfere with the treatment or evaluation.
  • Active implanted device such as a pacemaker, defibrillator, or drug delivery system.
  • Subject has a history of hernia in the areas to be treated.
  • Pregnant or intending to become pregnant in the next 5 months.
  • Lactating or has been lactating in the past 6 months.
  • Unable or unwilling to comply with the study requirements.
  • Currently enrolled in a clinical study of any other unapproved investigational drug or device.
  • Any other condition or laboratory value that would, in the professional opinion of the investigator, potentially affect the subject's response or the integrity of the data or would pose an unacceptable risk to the subject.

About this study

Official title: Allergan IIT-2019-10713 Feasibility of Producing the Appearance of a Gluteal Lift Post Cryolipolysis

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cryolipolysis of the medial infragluteal fold to create the appearance of a gluteal lift.

Read the detailed description

In this study, the safety and the efficacy of ZELTIQ's technology will be evaluated for the non-invasive fat reduction of the medial infragluteal folds on a small group of subjects. This is a feasibility study to determine if cryolipolysis in this area produces a desirable lifted appearance to the buttocks. Typically, a lifted more youthful appearance is obtained through surgical means. Study participants will be recruited from the population of patients who have suitable, treatable subcutaneous fat on the medial infragluteal folds and desire a lifted appearance. Subjects will receive treatments with a cooled cup cryolipolysis applicator from the CoolAdvantage family of applicators (cooled cup vacuum applicator). Treatments will be performed with a treatment temperature of - 11°C for up to 35 minutes. Subjects will complete all study-required follow-up visits, including an 8-week follow-up which may include a second treatment session, as well as a 12-week post final treatment follow-up visit.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Interventional cohortExperimentalZeltiq system is a thermoelectric device that applies controlled cooling ot skin. The CoolAdvantage applicators use gentle vacuum pressure to draw tissue into the cup shaped applicator. A gelpad is applied to skin to improve thermal coupling between participant and the applicator cooling surface.

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of treatment-emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]

    The primary endpoint of the study is to evaluate the safety of subcutaneous fat reduction in the medial intragluteal folds using the ZELTIQ System as a non-invasive clinical treatment. Safety will be measured through the incidence of device and/or procedure-related adverse event.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  2. Subjective clinical evaluation of subcutaneous fat treatment by Cryolipolysis [Efficacy]

    The primary endpoint of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of subcutaneous fat reduction in the medial intragluteal folds using the ZELTIQ System as a non-invasive clinical treatment. This will be evaluated by two blinded independent reviewers through the review of pre-treatment vs. post-treatment photos taken with a VECTRA H2 (Canfield Scientific, Inc) camera.

    Measured: 12 weeks

  3. Aggregated measurements of subcutaneous fat treatment by Cryolipolysis [Efficacy]

    The primary endpoint of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of subcutaneous fat reduction in the medial intragluteal folds using the ZELTIQ System as a non-invasive clinical treatment. Quantitative measurements of efficacy will be determined by review of 3-D images from a Vectra H2 software by Canfield Scientific, Inc. measuring buttock volume difference in cc, angle formed at the inner gluteal vertex in degrees, and Height difference from the top to the bottom of the buttock in mm and surface area reduction calculations in cm2

    Measured: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Subject satisfaction of subcutaneous fat treatment documented in written questionnaire

    Subject satisfaction data will be collected at the 12-week final follow-up visit via a written questionnaire. A validated questionnaire using a likert rating scale will be utilized . Score values are 1 to 5, with high numbers meaning better outcomes.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Individual data sharing
Yes: Data will be summarized based on the nature of the data. Dichotomous (e.g., gender, independent photographic review) and ordinal (e.g., Fitzpatrick Skin type) data will be tabulated by category. The mean, standard error, maximum and minimum will be tabulated for continuous data (e.g., age). The significance level will be two-sided 0.05 for all statistical tests.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 16 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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?

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?

Incidence of treatment-emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability] (time frame: 12 weeks). The study lists 3 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?
