This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, Phase 2b study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of CBL-514 injection for reducing subcutaneous fat.
The Stage 2 of this phase 2 study will be a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel, and multiple-dose study to assess the efficacy, safety, and subject satisfaction of CBL-514.
The proposed study is designed to test the hypothesis that in human obesity, the balance of pro- and anti-inflammatory T cells in fat tissue is in fact related to macrophage phenotype and insulin resistance, and how it is related. This study is needed to confirm whether conclusions based on studies of visceral adipose tissue in mice are indeed applicable to humans. We also want to determine the relationship between insulin resistance/hyperinsulinemia and ability to lose weight in obese individuals.
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.
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.

Study to Evaluate Non-Invasive Subcutaneous Fat Reduction in the Submental Area using Cryolipolysis. Healthy adult men and women with submental skin fold thickness \> 1cm who desire reduction of submental fat.
The objectives of this study are to explore the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous injections of Deoxycholic Acid relative to placebo, in the submental area of participants who are 65 to 75 years old.
The body shape of obese women varies between having the majority of fat either above the waist ("apple" shape) or below the waist ("pear" shape). The study will investigate what restricts: apple"-shaped women from being "pear"-shaped at the cellular level. Since "pear" shaped women tend to have better health, this study will open the door to future research in regulating body shape and thus improving health.

To evaluate the safety of deoxycholic acid subcutaneous injections in the submental area (below the chin).
The purpose of this pilot study is to demonstrate the anatomical modulation of subcutaneous fat across the waist and hips that occurs through application of the Erchonia® ML Scanner (MLS) Laser manufactured for non-invasive body contouring of the waist and hips.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a non-invasive cooling device to determine if cold exposure will consistently result in a reduction of subcutaneous fat.
This study compares four treatments to see which one causes the most weight loss, fat loss, loss of abdominal fat and improvement in blood tests like cholesterol. The four treatments are: Placebo, Ephedrine plus caffeine, Pioglitazone, Combined pioglitazone and ephedrine plus caffeine
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety and effectiveness of an injection study drug in decreasing bilateral flank adiposity. The main question it aims to answer is: •How safe and effective is the injection study drug in removing bilateral flank adiposity compared to a placebo? Participants will be: * Be given injections every month for 5 months over the right and left flanks. * Be asked to be seen in the clinic for 13 visits and 3 phone call visits during a duration of 1 year.
This Phase 2 study will be an open-label and single course study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK and metabolite profile of CBL-514.
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.
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.
Open-label, baseline-controlled, multi-center study evaluating a 1064 nm diode laser, pulsed electromagnetic fields and vacuum assisted radio frequency for non-invasive fat reduction of the abdomen and flanks.
The purpose of this study is to provide information about human subcutaneous fat thickness at different anatomic sites on the body by measuring these thicknesses with a diagnostic ultrasound and also by correlating patient perceptions of body image with measured fat distribution. Subjects currently living in the Chicago metropolitan area and meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will be considered for enrollment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the safety and pre-cursors of efficacy of a non-invasive 1064nm laser and 940nm diode, for the disruption of subcutaneous adipose tissue and skin tightening.
The purpose of this study is to compare non invasive treatments using a YAG and Didode Laser to reduce the volume of fat.
Histopathological study of abdominal fat excised from subjects undergoing abdominoplasty
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 study will evaluate the use of free autologous dermal fat grafting (also called free dermal fat autografting) to treat complex craniofacial wounds that have failed standard treatment and to understand how well these grafts work to repair wounds long term. Patients who have undergone free autologous dermal fat grafting to treat complex craniofacial wounds 2-30 years ago will have photographs and small biopsies taken of the area that was grafted.
This study will evaluate the use of free autologous dermal fat grafting (also called free dermal fat autografting) to treat complex craniofacial wounds that have failed standard treatment and to understand how well these grafts work to repair wounds long term. Patients who have undergone free autologous dermal fat grafting to treat complex craniofacial wounds less than 1 week ago will have photographs and small biopsies taken of the area that was grafted. Patients will be followed for 2 years to monitor the area that was grafted.
Background: - It is important for doctors to know how much fat a person has in his or her body. Machines called DXAs measure how much fat mass and fat-free mass a person has. Researchers in this study have a new DXA machine, and they want to know if it measures body fat as well as the old machine. They also want to see how body fat readings from the new DXA compare to readings from a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. Objectives: - To see if two DXA machines give the same results when measuring body fat. Also, to know whether the DXA and MRI give the same results in measuring visceral and subcutaneous fat. Eligibility: - People 18 years and older who weigh less than 350 pounds. Design: * Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical exam. Women will have a pregnancy test. Researchers will make sure participants are able to have an MRI if they volunteered to. * Participants will have their body fat measured by each DXA scanner. They will lie quietly on a padded table while being scanned. The scan uses X-rays to take pictures of the body. Both scans will be done on the same morning and will take 10-15 minutes on both machines. * Some participants also will have their body fat measured with MRI. They will lie in a long, tube-shaped scanner. The machine uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to take pictures of internal organs. Participants will sign an additional consent form for this procedure.
