About

To Determine the safety and Effectiveness of Kybella for the treatment of Flank Fat (FF)

Full description

This is a single center study of the safety and efficacy of Kybella for the treatment of subcutaneous adipose in the flank area (flank fat).

Each qualified subject will undergo treatment with Kybella in the flank region for the reduction of flank fat.. Prior to treatment, the principal investigator will evaluate the severity of the subcutaneous adipose deposition of the flanks. Subjects will also have an MRI of the flanks at screening and week 12. .. Flank digital images will be taken prior to treatment and at each subsequent visit. The subjects will complete a safety and injection site response (ISR) diary beginning on the evening of treatment.

The subjects will return at Week 6 for additional treatment if warranted by the treating investigator. Subjects will be contacted via a phone call within 72 hours after each injection. Subjects will be seen at Week 6, 10, 12 and 18 (EOS) after initial treatment, at which time the subject will undergo photography and the investigator will rate treatment improvement (GAIS). The investigator will evaluate the treatment area for any adverse events (AEs). MRI study will be done at screening and at week 12.

The subject will return 6 weeks after initial treatment, and the principal investigator will determine if a touch-up treatment is warranted. If deemed necessary, a touch-up treatment may be administered Digital photography will be captured prior to treatment and following treatment. The subject will return 4 weeks after the touch-up to undergo digital photography and for the principal investigator to assess safety/improvement.

After initial treatment routine follow-up visits for safety and effectiveness will occur at Week 6, 10, 12, and 18 (EOS). A phone call will occur within 72 hours following injection. At all follow-up visits, digital photography will be captured and the investigator will rate treatment improvement (GAIS).. At screening and at Week 6, 10, 12 and 18 (EOS) subjects will complete the satisfaction of flank region questionnaire.

The goal of this study will be to assess the feasibility and efficacy of injecting Kybella for the treatment of subcutaneous fat of the flank region.

Any use of permanent filler materials such as Artefill or silicone in the flanks.
Subjects planning a cosmetic procedure in the treatment area during the study period or with prior cosmetic procedures (i.e. surgery) in the treatment area or visible scars that may affect the evaluation.
Any subjects with volume deficit due to trauma, abnormalities in adipose tissue related to immune-mediated diseases such as generalized lipodystrophy (e.g., juvenile dermatomyositis), partial lipodystrophy (e.g., Barraquer-Simons syndrome), inherited disease, or HIV-related disease.
Infection or dermatoses at the injection site.
Evidence of recent alcohol or drug abuse.
Medical and/or psychiatric problems that are severe enough to interfere with the study results.
Known bleeding disorder or is receiving medication that will likely increase the risk of bleeding as the result of injection.
Has hair that would interfere with evaluation and treatment of the flank area
Has a tendency to develop hypertrophic scarring
Has a history of anaphylaxis or allergy to lidocaine (or any amide-based anesthestics), HA products, or Streptococcal protein.
Has porphyria
Has an active inflammation, infection, cancerous or precancerous lesion, or unhealed wound in the flank area.
Subject has a condition or is in a situation which in the Investigator's opinion may put the subject at significant risk, may confound the study results, or may interfere significantly with the subject's participation in the study -
