Promising Phase 2 Results for AYP-101 by AMI Pharm: A Non-Surgical Breakthrough in Lipolysis

AYP-101 by AMI Pharm: A New Era in Non-Surgical Lipolysis

In a significant advancement for aesthetic medicine, AYP-101, an injectable drug developed by AMI Pharm, has shown promising outcomes in its Phase 2 trials aimed at reducing submental fat, often referred to as a double chin. These findings were recently published in Clinical Therapeutics, a leading journal focusing on drug development and therapy research, marking a crucial milestone for AYP-101 and highlighting its potential as a safe and effective non-surgical therapeutic option.

Phase 2 Study Highlights

The Phase 2 clinical study evaluated the safety and efficacy of AYP-101 at two concentration levels among 96 participants. The results demonstrated that the 25 mg/mL concentration, administered bi-weekly over six sessions, resulted in statistically significant and clinically relevant reductions in submental fat levels ranging from moderate to severe.

Four weeks post-treatment, 69.70% of participants receiving the 25 mg/mL dosage experienced at least a one-point improvement on both the evaluator-reported submental fat assessment (ER-SMFRS) and the subject-reported assessment (SR-SMFRS). This represents a statistically significant improvement compared to a 22.58% response rate in the placebo group.

Importantly, AYP-101 has been engineered to minimize surrounding tissue damage during the fat elimination process, known as apoptosis. Compared to deoxycholic acid (DCA), AYP-101 required fewer injection points and resulted in a lower incidence of swelling and paresthesia post-injection, showcasing a favorable safety profile and tolerability.

A Leader in Aesthetic Medicine

As the global demand for non-surgical lipolysis continues to rise, AMI Pharm is committed to furthering the development of AYP-101. Ki-Taek Lee, CEO of AMI Pharm, emphasized, "The publication of our Phase 2 results reaffirms our strength in research and development and demonstrates the remarkable potential of AYP-101 in the localized lipolysis market."

AMI Pharm is currently accelerating the Phase 3 study of AYP-101 with the ambitious goal of completion by the end of 2025. Additionally, the company is actively expanding its international collaborations to develop next-generation injectable treatments for localized fat reduction. This latest publication builds upon the positive results from the earlier Phase 1 trial of AYP-101 conducted in 2024, ensuring continued international recognition of this innovative treatment.

AMID-101 stands poised to redefine the landscape of aesthetic treatments, offering patients a non-surgical alternative with effective results. As AMI Pharm raises awareness and continues to test its findings, the potential for AYP-101's success in the market looks promising, leading us towards a future where cosmetic enhancements can be both effective and minimally invasive.
