Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

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.

Condition or Disease	Intervention/Treatment	Phase
Submental Fat	Drug: LIPO-202; Drug: Placebo for LIPO-202	Phase 2

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.

Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Active High Drug: LIPO 202 (Salmeterol Xinafoate for Injection), 0.2 mcg SX/mL Total Weekly Dose: up to 3.0 mcg SX	Drug: LIPO-202; Other Names: Salmeterol Xinafoate for Injection
Experimental: Active Low Drug: LIPO 202 (Salmeterol Xinafoate for Injection), 0.02 mcg SX/mL Total Weekly Dose: up to 0.3 mcg SX	Drug: LIPO-202; Other Names: Salmeterol Xinafoate for Injection
Placebo Comparator: Placebo Placebo for LIPO 202 (Salmeterol Xinafoate for Injection)	Drug: Placebo for LIPO-202; Lyophile manufactured to mimic LIPO-202 lyophile.; Other Names: Placebo

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

1. Safety as measured by number of subjects with adverse events. [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. [12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)]

3. Change from baseline in the patient reported submental bulging scale. [12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)]

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

4. Change from baseline in the clinician reported submental bulging scale [12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)]

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

5. Change in submental fat thickness measured with calipers (mm). [12 weeks (Baseline through 4 weeks post last dose)]
