What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Proportion of subjects whose CA-SMFRS (Clinician-Assessed Submental Fat Rating Scale) score changed

    Proportion of subjects whose CA-SMFRS decreased 1, 2 points or more compared the 12 weeks after the last administration day to before administration of the IP, Minimum value: 0 (best outcome) / Maximum value: 4 (worst outcome)

    Time frame: 12 weeks

  2. Proportion of subjects whose PA-SMFIS (Patient Assessed-Submental Fat Impact Scale) score changed

    Proportion of subjects whose PA-MFRS decreased 1, 2 points or more compared the 12 weeks after the last administration day to before administration of the IP , Minimum value: 0 (worst outcome) / Maximum value: 10 (best outcome)

    Time frame: 12 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Proportion of subjects whose CA-SMFRS (Clinician-Assessed Submental Fat Rating Scale) score changed

    Proportion of subjects whose CA-SMFRS decreased 1, 2 points or more compared the 4 weeks after the last administration day to before administration of the IP, Minimum value: 0 (best outcome) / Maximum value: 4 (worst outcome)

    Time frame: 4 weeks

  2. Proportion of subjects whose PA-SMFIS (Patient Assessed-Submental Fat Impact Scale) score changed

    Proportion of subjects whose PA-MFRS decreased 1, 2 points or more compared the 4 weeks after the last administration day to before administration of the IP , Minimum value: 0 (worst outcome) / Maximum value: 10 (best outcome)

    Time frame: 4 weeks

  3. PA-SMFIS (Patient Assessed-Submental Fat Impact Scale)

    Change PA-SMFIS (Patient Assessed-Submental Fat Impact Scale) score compared 4 to 12 weeks after the last administration of the IP, Minimum value: 0 (worst outcome) / Maximum value: 10 (best outcome)

    Time frame: 4 and 12 weeks

  4. Measuring submental fat volume by MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)

    Confirmation the volume of submental fat compared the 12 weeks after the last administration to before administration of the IP measured by MRI (Number of Participants: approximately 120)

    Time frame: 12 weeks

  5. Satisfaction Evaluation by the subject

    A score of 5 (slightly satisfied) or higher in the subject satisfaction evaluation at 4 and 12 weeks after the last administration to before administration of the IP

    Time frame: 4 and 12 weeks

Other outcomes

  1. Caliper

    Percentage of change in submental fat thickness as measured by Caliper

    Time frame: 4 and 12 weeks
