10 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, Phase 2b study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of CBL-514 injection for reducing subcutaneous fat.
This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of externally applied lower frequency ultrasound to the waist/abdominal region of adults to achieve a reduction of fat cells/tissues below the skin, evidenced by a reduction in patient waist circumference.
The combination of phosphatidylcholine (PPC) and deoxycholate (DC) injected into subcutaneous fat is often popularly referred to as "Lipodissolve" therapy. Despite its attractiveness as an easy and noninvasive cosmetic treatment, the safety, effectiveness, and how the injections might work remain unclear. This study will investigate the hypothesis that injections of PPC/DC will reduce the amount body fat in the treated area. If so, the mechanisms responsible for the fat loss will be explored to find out whether fat cells die from toxic effects or are broken apart by the PPC/DC. Patients will receive at least 2 (no more than 4) treatments with PPC/DC injections every 2 months. Several methods of measuring fat loss will be used in the study, including photography and measurement of patients, tissue biopsy, blood tests, and MRI. The study will also record side effects of the treatments as well as patient satisfaction.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety and efficacy of LIPO-202 for the reduction of central abdominal bulging due to subcutaneous fat in non-obese subjects.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study evaluating the safety and efficacy of LIPO-202 for the reduction of central abdominal bulging due to subcutaneous fat in non-obese subjects.
This study will evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of a simultaneous treatment by high power magnet and radiofrequency energy for toning of abdomen and reduction of subcutaneous fat. The study is a prospective multi-center single-blinded sham-controlled study. The subjects will be enrolled and assigned into two study groups; active and sham group. Subjects of both groups will be required to complete three (3) treatment visits and two to three follow-up visits.
The goal of this project is to compare visceral fat measurements derived from Lunar iDXA total body scans and from Computed Tomography (CT) scans of the abdominal region.
Adipose, or fat, tissue is a plastic organ that retains the ability to expand and store excess calories during positive energy balance in humans. The capacity of subcutaneous (subQ) adipose tissue to expand and remodel is an important determinant of obesity-related health complications, and impaired expansion of subQ fat tissue is thought to contribute to the risk of diseases such as the Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). The objectives of the study are to evaluate the changes and mechanisms of (subQ) adipose tissue expandability that occur as a result of short-term weight gain and to investigate the effects on cardio-metabolic health outcomes. Findings from this study will provide new insight into the dynamics of adipose expansion and remodeling during changes in energy balance and how this may impact future fat tissue function and metabolic health.
Open Label Study to Evaluate the Serum Lipid and Adipokine Profiles Following Subcutaneous Injection of ATX-101 into Abdominal Fat Tissue
Study the effects of different exercise modes on total and regional adiposity variation in subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue (VAT and SAT). The investigators hypothesize that total abdominal will improve for all the exercise groups compared to the control group. When comparing intervention groups: 1) no differences on the degree of improvement in total abdominal fat depots (VAT and SAT) 2) different degree of change when comparing specific sections at VAT and SAT are expected.
