Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in BMI SDS (Week 0, Week 56)

    Change from baseline (week 0) in BMI SDS was evaluated at week 56. BMI SDS was calculated using the following formula: Z=\[(value /M)\^L - 1\] / S\*L; where L, M and S are median (M), skewness (L) and variation coefficient (S) of children/adolescents' BMI provided for each sex and age. For each subject, a standard deviation score Z (SDS) was calculated based on age and sex referring to the values L, M and S. The method is described in the world health organisation (WHO) Multicentre Growth Reference, which also contains the values for L, M and S by age and sex. For Z (SDS) scores below -3 and above 3, the score was adjusted as described in the WHO instruction. All available data were used for the analysis including data collected after treatment discontinuation. Results are based on both participants who completed the week 0-56 trial period and participants who prematurely discontinued the trial product but attended the follow-up visit at 56.

    Week 0, week 56

Secondary Outcomes (60)

  • Percent of Subjects Achieving ≥5% Reduction in Baseline BMI

    Weeks 30, 56 and 82

  • Percent of Subjects Achieving ≥10% Reduction in Baseline BMI

    Weeks 30, 56 and 82

  • Change in BMI SDS ((Week 0, Week 30); (Week 0, Week 82); (Week 56, Week 82))

    (Week 0, week 30); (Week 0, week 82); (Week 56, week 82)

  • Change in BMI

    (Week 0, week 30); (Week 0, week 56); (Week 56, week 82)

  • Change in Body Weight (kg)

    (Week 0, week 30); (Week 0, week 56); (Week 56, week 82)

  • +55 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Informed consent obtained before any trial-related activities. Trial-related activities are any procedures that are carried out as part of the trial, including activities to determine suitability for the trial
  • Male or female, age 12 to less than 18 years at the time of signing informed consent and less than 18 years at date of randomisation
  • BMI corresponding to equal to or above 30 kg/m\^2 for adults by international cut-off points and equal or above the 95th percentile for age and sex (for diagnosis of obesity)
  • Stable body weight during the previous 90 days before screening V2 (below 5 kg self-reported weight change)
  • History of failing to lose sufficient weight with lifestyle modification as judged by the investigator and documented in subject's medical record

You may not qualify if:

  • Pre-pubertal subjects (Tanner stage 1) at screening V2
  • Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)
  • Family or personal history of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2)
  • Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC)
  • History of pancreatitis (acute or chronic)
  • Subjects with secondary causes of obesity (i.e., hypothalamic, genetic or endocrine causes)
  • Treatment with medications within 90 days before screening V2 that, based on the investigator's judgement, may cause significant weight change. This should also include treatment with any of the following medications: pramlintide, orlistat, zonisamide, topiramate, lorcaserin, phenteremine, bupropion, naltrexone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, or metformin (used as treatment for obesity)
  • Anti-diabetic treatment other than metformin
  • History of major depressive disorder within 2 years before screening V2
