E.3 | Principal inclusion criteria |
1. Aged ≥ 18 and < 65 years at screening 2. BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 or ≥ 27 kg/m2, with treated or untreated co morbidity(ies) (e.g., hypertriglyceridemia, dyslipidemia, hypertension, glucose intolerance, and sleep apnea), at screening. 3. Stable body weight (less than 5% change) for at least 3 months prior to screening 4. FPG < 126 mg/dL (7 mmol/L) 5. Considered to be in stable health, as determined by: a) physical examination; b) a medical history indicating either no clinically significant abnormalities or stable co morbid condition(s); c) vital signs within normal ranges or if outside of the normal range are not deemed clinically significant in the opinion of the Investigator; d) pre-study clinical laboratory findings within normal range, or if outside of the normal range, not deemed clinically significant in the opinion of the Investigator; and e) a 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) showing no active ischemia 6. Not undergoing or in need of treatment for significant chronic disease, with the exception of stable (at least 3 months) treatment for hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, and dyslipidemia, which is permitted 7. Female subjects of child-bearing potential must test negative for serum pregnancy at screening and by urine dipstick prior to dosing on the first day of dosing, and agree to use a highly effective method of birth control throughout the study and for at least 3 months after the last dose of study medication. Child bearing potential is defined as women who have not been surgically sterilized for 6 weeks prior to screening or are post menopausal ≤ 1 year. For women who are surgically sterilized or post-menopausal (> 1 year prior to the screening visit), the site will make an effort to retrieve medical records to document sterility. However, the absence of records will not exclude the subject. In the event that medical records cannot be obtained, serum and urine pregnancy testing will be conducted. Post-menopausal status will be confirmed through testing of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels ≥ 40 IU/mL at screening. A highly effective method of birth control is considered to be 1 of the following: a) An oral or implanted hormonal method of contraception (if it has been used for ≥ 3 months prior to study drug administration) while also using a barrier method (i.e., a condom or a diaphragm); b) A hormone or copper intrauterine device if it has been in place for ≥ 3 months prior to study drug administration (subjects using a nonhormonal or copper intrauterine device should also use a barrier method [i.e., a condom or a diaphragm]); c) A vasectomised partner; d) Total abstinence is acceptable; however, the subject must use a highly effective method of contraception if the subject subsequently decides not to abstain. 8. Male subjects whose partners are female of child-bearing potential must be surgically sterilized (e.g., vasectomy) for at least 3 months prior to screening or agree to practice highly effective birth control methods (condom and spermicide) during the conduct of the study and for at least 3 months after the last dose of study medication. 9. Ability and willingness to comply with all protocol procedures (e.g., correct handling of investigational product, compliance with visit schedule and dietary advice, and complete trial related questionnaires) 10. Written informed consent must be obtained before any study related assessment is performed. |

Fasting TG > 400 mg/dL. 18. LDL C > 160 mg/dL. 19. Liver disease, hepatitis, or clinically significant abnormal hepatic parameters suggestive of hepatic impairment (e.g., alanine aminotransferase [ALT] or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels > 2.5 x ULN, or total bilirubin >1.5 x ULN unless the subject has a known history of Gilbert’s syndrome) 20. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 or has > 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 and <90 mL/min/1.73 m2 with urine albumin to urine creatinine ratio > 30 mg/g.

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
The primary variable is the body weight (to the nearest 0.1 kg [3.5 oz]), collected from subjects at baseline, Days 1, 8, 15, 22, 36, 50, 78, 106, and 141 during the treatment period. The change in body weight from baseline to Week 21 (Day 141) and the number and the proportion of subjects who lose at least 5% of baseline body weight at Week 21 (Day 141) will be used to demonstrate the efficacy of each of the 4 doses of HM11260C versus placebo on fasting body weight reduction.
