Trial Outcomes & Findings for CoolSculpting Treatment in the Upper Arms (NCT NCT02939105)

NCT ID: NCT02939105

Last Updated: 2021-06-09

Results Overview

Change in the treated vs. untreated areas will be assessed by observation of changes in surface contour and/or fat volume by an independent photo review of pre-treatment and post-treatment images. Reviewers are practicing dermatologists or plastic surgeons. All reviewers will be blinded to post-treatment vs. baseline untreated area. The order in which images are presented will be randomized; for each subject placement of the baseline, pre-treatment image will be randomized for each pair of subject images. Reviewers will be asked to select the baseline photos for each subject photo series and record selections on a data collection form. Criteria for evaluable photos for the purposes of the independent review: subject completed treatment regimen; subject has complete set of baseline photos; subject has a complete set of post-treatment photos; photos were taken using Zeltiq standard procedure. The expected success rate is 70% correct identification by 2 out of 3 reviewers.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 weeks post-final treatment

Population: The analysis population included subjects with baseline and post-treatment photos.

Change in the treated vs. untreated areas will be assessed by observation of changes in surface contour and/or fat volume by an independent photo review of pre-treatment and post-treatment images. Reviewers are practicing dermatologists or plastic surgeons. All reviewers will be blinded to post-treatment vs. baseline untreated area. The order in which images are presented will be randomized; for each subject placement of the baseline, pre-treatment image will be randomized for each pair of subject images. Reviewers will be asked to select the baseline photos for each subject photo series and record selections on a data collection form. Criteria for evaluable photos for the purposes of the independent review: subject completed treatment regimen; subject has complete set of baseline photos; subject has a complete set of post-treatment photos; photos were taken using Zeltiq standard procedure. The expected success rate is 70% correct identification by 2 out of 3 reviewers.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Enrollment through12 weeks post-final treatment

Population: Each adverse event occurring in the per-protocol population of 15 subjects was evaluated by investigators for any relationship to the study device or procedure.

The primary safety endpoint of the study is the incidence of unanticipated adverse device effects (UADE) reported in the study period. Investigators assessed each adverse event to determine if there was relationship to the study device or procedure. Adverse event data are collected from the time of study enrollment through the final follow-up visit at 12 weeks post-treatment.
