Summary

This phase 2 study tests an investigational drug called STP705, given as injections under the chin, to reduce submental fat (double chin). Healthy adults aged 18 to 65 with moderate to severe submental fullness receive up to three treatment sessions over two months. The study evaluates how well the injections reduce fat and checks for safety and tolerability at three different dose levels.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a non-surgical option for reducing submental fat (double chin) with a simple injection procedure.
