E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Core Period
Phase 2b
To demonstrate the efficacy of a 3-month treatment with livoletide as compared to placebo for reducing caregiver-observed food-related behavior as assessed by the Hyperphagia Questionnaire for Clinical Trials (HQ-CT).
Phase 3
To demonstrate the efficacy of a 6-month treatment with livoletide as compared to placebo for reducing caregiver-observed food-related behavior as assessed by HQ-CT. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Core Period
Phase 2b
To demonstrate the efficacy of 3-month treatment with livoletide as compared to placebo for:
− Reducing total body fat mass in overweight/obese patients with PWS;
− Reducing waist circumference (WC) in overweight/obese patients with PWS;
− Reducing body weight (BW) in overweight/obese patients with PWS.
Phase 3
To demonstrate the efficacy of 6-month treatment with livoletide as compared to placebo for:
− Reducing total body fat mass in overweight/obese patients with PWS;
− Reducing WC in overweight/obese patients with PWS;
− Reducing BW in overweight/obese patients with PWS.
