Device Story
SCIZER is a high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) system for non-invasive aesthetic reduction of waist circumference. The device comprises a control unit, touch LCD monitor, and two handpieces. Users set irradiation parameters; the system delivers HIFU energy via a linear scanning method through a D13 cartridge. The transducer focuses energy 13mm deep into subcutaneous adipose tissue, causing thermal coagulation (temperatures >56°C) and cellular disruption. The body clears destroyed tissue via inflammatory response. Purified water is applied to the skin for transmission; cooling levels are adjustable via GUI to manage patient discomfort. Physicians may use ultrasound imaging to visualize sub-dermal regions before treatment. The device is intended for clinical use by trained professionals. It provides a non-invasive alternative to surgical fat reduction, with clinical outcomes measured by waist circumference reduction and aesthetic improvement scales.
Clinical Evidence
A single-center, single-group, parallel clinical study (n=20, ages 18-65) evaluated safety and effectiveness. Primary endpoint: waist circumference reduction >2.45 cm after two treatment sets (150 J/cm2 and 135 J/cm2). Statistically significant reduction observed at 8 weeks post-treatment (p<0.05). Secondary outcomes included waist-hip ratio, fat layer thickness (ultrasound/CT), and Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (GAIS). GAIS scores showed statistically significant improvement (p=0.000). Safety profile confirmed via blood tests and NRS pain scale; no serious or unanticipated adverse events reported.

#### Device Description 5.4.
The Subject Device consists of 2 handpieces, a control unit, a Touch LCD monitor, power supply unit for irradiation and for setting parameters after the main power and key switch is turned on.
HIFU energy is irradiated based on a linear scanning method through the handpiece depending on irradiation energy that is set in advance by the user. The Cartridge D13 used with the Subject Device focuses the HIFU energy from the transducer onto the fat layer at a depth of 13mm from the surface of the skin. The Cartridge can treat a region of tissue up to 46mm long and 46mm wide. The Cartridge can apply a maximum of 24 lines at a time. As a result, tissue temperature rises over 56°C and thermal coagulation occurs. Using thermal effects generated by the HIFU transducer, cellular disruption of the subcutaneous adipose tissue occurs. This thermal coagulation results in the contraction of the collagen and subsequently results in the destruction of the adipose tissue. The destroyed adipose tissue is cleared via an inflammatory response.
Immediately before the procedure, purified water was applied to the treatment area to promote the desired energy transmission of the ultrasound transducer. To minimize the pain from the thermal HIFU procedure, the cooling level was used through the GUI. It is recommended to use an ultrasound imaging system to visualize the sub-dermal regions of interest before treatment. It allows the physician to compile a precise view of the target treatment area.
#### 5.5. Indications for Use
The SCIZER delivers high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) energy that can disrupt subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) to provide a non-invasive approach to achieve a desired aesthetic effect.
The SCIZER is specifically indicated for non-invasive waist circumference reduction.

#### 5.9. Clinical study
CLASSYS Inc. conducted a single-centered, single group, parallel clinical study with 20 study participants aged between 18 and 65 years. The study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of the Subject Device.
## Efficacy outcome
The primary efficacy outcome was assessed in terms of waist circumference reduction above 2.45 cm after two sets of treatments/procedures. The treatments using the Subject Device were performed on 12 sites of the abdomen. with a cumulative energy of 150 J/cm2 and 135 J/cm2, during the 1st set and 2nd set of treatments, and were based on the umbilicus of each subject. The second procedure was executed at the 4th week after the 1st procedure and on the same sites of the participants. During the application of treatment sets, each procedure site received 3 passes within a maximum of 20 minutes. Data acquired from the subjects of this study were evaluated by FAS (Full analysis Set) and PPS (Per-Protocol Set). Additionally, Investigator Analysis Set (IAS) was added as an analysis group. The evaluation of primary efficacy outcome was done by testing the null hypothesis (D<=δ), in which paired t-test or Wilcoxon's signed-rank test were used to compare the difference (D) in the waist circumference between the 2 time points (measurement prior to the 1st procedure and measurement at the 16th week) with the reference value of 2.45cm (δ) using one-tailed testing at a sigmificance level of 2.5%. All 3 sets revealed a statistically significant difference in the waist circumference between the 8th week and prior to the 1st procedure.
The secondary efficacy outcomes comprised evaluation of the waist-hip ratio(%), changes in weight, changes in subcutaneous fat layer thickness using ultrasound, changes in the abdominal fat thickness using Caliper, changes in the area of abdomen fat and the height of the subcutaneous fat area measured through abdomen fat CT, and evaluation of abdominal subcutaneous fat reduction on procedure site using GAIS.
The evaluation was conducted by two-tailed testing at a significance level of 5% and a statistically significant decrease was observed at each evaluation time compared to measurements taken before the 1st procedure.
The reduction of waist circumference was assessed using Global Aesthetic Improvement scale (GAIS) by three independent investigators (IGAIS) and by the Subjects (SGAIS).

The Investigator Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (IGAIS) evaluations were conducted prior to the 2nd treatment and 4 weeks after the 2nd treatment, both for the FAS set. PPS set. and the IAS set. The evaluations for each of the three sets demonstrated a statistically significant (p=0.000) difference for the mean±standard deviations in the two time points (FAS= 0.75+0.44, 0.89±0.54; PPS= 0.76±0.46, 0.74±0.47; IAS=0.83±0.41, 0.90±0.51). All three independent evaluators observed a decrease in waist circumference during these evaluation periods.
Similarly, the Subject Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale (SGAIS) evaluations were conducted at six different time points, where all demonstrated a statistically significant difference for the mean±standard deviations, compared to the evaluation before the 1st procedure.
# Evaluation of safety
Evaluation of safety was conducted through blood test, evaluation of pain (NRS scale), and incidence of adverse events during the clinical trial. The results from blood test results demonstrated that all test items showed values of normal range with no clinically significant abnormalities or differences among the results of each test item.
These results for pain evaluation demonstrated that pain experienced initially after each treatment was resolved completely at 2 weeks from the end of the 2nd treatment.
Throughout the study, no serious or unanticipated adverse events were reported.
# Conclusion
The results of the primary efficacy outcome support the Subject Device's effectiveness in terms of waist circumference reduction in a substantially similar manner to that of the Predicate Device. The results from the safety evaluation demonstrate that the Subject Device is equivalent to the predicate in terms of safety. Thus, in entirety, the clinical data demonstrates that the Subject Device is substantially equivalent to the Predicate Device for requested indications for use.
#### 5.10. Conclusion
