Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Eligible subjects will be randomized to 1 of 6 treatment groups (the placebo groups will be pooled for analyses):
• Placebo: up to 48 injections using a 0.7 cm grid and 0.2 mL/injection (n=4)
• Placebo: up to 24 injections using a 1.0 cm grid and 0.2 mL/injection (n=4)
• Placebo: up to 24 injections using a 1.0 cm grid and 0.4 mL/injection (n=4)
• 1.0% ATX-101: up to 48 injections using a 0.7 cm grid and 0.2 mL/injection (n=18)
• 1.0% ATX-101: up to 24 injections using a 1.0 cm grid and 0.2 mL/injection (n=12)
• 1.0% ATX-101: up to 24 injections using a 1.0 cm grid and 0.4 mL/injection (n=18)
Subjects who successfully complete screening and baseline evaluations will receive up to 48 injections (0.2 mL each, or a maximum volume of approximately 9.6 mL) or 24 injections (0.2 mL or 0.4 mL each, or a maximum volume of approximately 4.8 mL or 9.6 mL, respectively) per treatment, depending upon size and configuration of Submental Fat (SMF). Treatment will be given at four-week (± 3 days) intervals.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 3615 0
To determine the safety and tolerability of ATX-101 injections at one concentration and three dosing paradigms, relative to placebo.
Timepoint [1] 3615 0
Subjects will undergo protocol defined tests and observations at screening, four treatment visits (Visits 2, 4, 6, and 8 [+- 3 days]), four postinjection visits each one week (+- 2 days) after treatment, safety assessments at each visit, and efficacy assessments at Visits 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. Each subject's participation in the trial will be terminated at the conclusion of all tests and observations conducted at Visit 12 (12 weeks after the final dose of study material).
Secondary outcome [1] 6056 0
To evaluate the potential efficacy of ATX-101, relative to placebo, in reducing SMF
Timepoint [1] 6056 0
Subjects will undergo protocol defined tests and observations at screening, four treatment visits (Visits 2, 4, 6, and 8 [+- 3 days]), four postinjection visits each one week (+- 2 days) after treatment, safety assessments at each visit, and efficacy assessments at Visits 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. Each subject's participation in the trial will be terminated at the conclusion of all tests and observations conducted at Visit 12 (12 weeks after the final dose of study material).

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria
1.Submental fat that is considered undesirable by the subject and graded by the investigator as 2 or 3 using the Submental Fat (SMF) Rating Scale (Appendix C).
2.Males or nonpregnant, nonlactating females who are aged 25 to 65 years, inclusive, on the date of randomization. Females of childbearing potential must have a negative human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test result within 28 days before randomization and must agree to practice adequate contraception, in the judgment of the investigator, during the course of the trial.
3.History of maintenance of a stable body weight, in the judgment of the investigator, for at least 6 months before randomization.
4.The subject is expected to comply with and understand the visit schedule and all of the protocol-specified tests and procedures.
5.The subject is medically able to undergo the administration of study material as determined by clinical and laboratory evaluations (section 7) obtained within 28 days before randomization, for which the investigator identifies no clinically significant abnormality.
6.Signed informed consent obtained before any study-specific procedure is conducted..
Minimum age
25 Years
Maximum age
65 Years
Sex
Both males and females
Can healthy volunteers participate?
No
Key exclusion criteria
Exclusion Criteria
1.History of any intervention to treat submental fat (e.g., liposuction) or trauma associated with the chin or neck areas, which in the judgment of the investigator, may affect safety or efficacy evaluation of the treatment.
2.Loose skin in the neck or chin area for which reduction in submental fat may, in the judgment of the investigator, result in a cosmetically unacceptable outcome.
3.Prominent platysmal bands at rest that interfere with the evaluation of submental fat.
4.Evidence of any cause of enlargement in the submental area (e.g., thyroid enlargement, cervical adenopathy) other than localized submental fat.
5.Fitzpatrick Skin Type IV, V, or VI (Appendix B).
6.Currently on, or considering starting, a weight reduction regimen.
7.Any medical condition (e.g., respiratory, cardiovascular, hepatic, neurological disease, uncontrolled hypertension, thyroid dysfunction) that would interfere with the assessment of safety or efficacy in this trial or would compromise the ability of the subject to undergo study procedures or to give informed consent.
8.Treatment with fish oil or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDS) within seven days before randomization, or any anticipated need for agents with anticoagulative effects (e.g. warfarin, heparin) during the course of the trial. Aspirin used for prophylaxis will be allowed.
9.Treatment with oral anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin) within 28 days before randomization.
10.Treatment with radio frequency, laser procedures, chemical peel, dermal fillers in the neck or chin area within 12 months before randomization or botulinum toxin injections within 6 months before randomization.
11.History of sensitivity to any components of the study material or to topical or local anesthetics (e.g., lidocaine, benzocaine, novocaine).
12.Previous randomization into this trial.
13.Treatment with an investigational device or agent within 30 days before randomization.

Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Each subject will be consented to the study (via written informed consent) prior to the study-specific tests or procedures. Randomisation via a central schedule by phone/fax. Subject considered enrolled once they have undergone randomisation.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Randomization to one of the six treatment assignments will be based on a double-blind computer generated centralized randomization schedule prepared by Kythera before the start of the study
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)
Who is / are masked / blinded?



Intervention assignment
Parallel
Other design features
This is a double-blind study so the participant and Investigator administering the treatment will be blinded as well as those assessing the outcomes. At the completion of the study unblinding will occur for the results to be abalysed and reported.
