Efficacy -Proportion of Subjects With at Least a 1-grade Improvement in the C-CAT Scale at Day 84 Primary · 84 days

To determine the efficacy of RZL-012 versus placebo on submental fat (SMF) reduction measured on Day 84 versus baseline using the Clinician Chin Assessment Tool (C-CAT). The CAT is composed of 5 points where 0 represents no fat and 4 represent very noticeable bulge and fat that extends beyond the neck

Safety - Adverse Events Follow up Secondary · 84 days

To evaluate the safety of RZL-012 subcutaneous injections in the submental area, relative to placebo, as assessed by spontaneous adverse event reports and post injection evaluation of treatment area. Treatment area evaluations including, but not limited to evaluation of edema, bruising, dysphasia, dysphonia, erythema, dyspigmentation, induration, numbness, pain, paresthesia, and pruritus. The number of subjects with treatment-related adverse events will be compared within each treatment group, as assessed by CTCAE v4.0.
