ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Trough Sitting Diastolic Blood Pressure (SiDBP) at Week 12 in Participants With Higher Body Mass Indices (BMI)Baseline and Week 12 (end of Phase A)Sitting diastolic blood pressure measured in triplicate at baseline and after 12 weeks of study drug administration. Mean value of the 3 measurements at the 2 timepoints was recorded.
PrimaryNumber of Participants Who Reported a Clinical Adverse Event24 weeks
An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR'S product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR'S product, is also an AE. A clinical AE was an AE reported as a result of a clinical examination.
PrimaryNumber of Participants Who Reported a Laboratory Adverse Event24 weeks
An AE is defined as any unfavorable and unintended change in the structure, function, or chemistry of the body temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR'S product, whether or not considered related to the use of the product. Any worsening (i.e., any clinically significant adverse change in frequency and/or intensity) of a preexisting condition which is temporally associated with the use of the SPONSOR'S product, is also an AE. A laboratory AE was an AE reported as a result of a laboratory assessment or test.
PrimaryNumber of Participants Who Were Discontinued From Study Due to Clinical Adverse Event24 weeks

SecondaryChange From Baseline in Trough Sitting Systolic Blood Pressure (SiSBP) at Week 12 in Participants With Higher Body Mass Indices (BMI)Baseline and Week 12 (end of Phase A)Sitting systolic blood pressure measured in triplicate at baseline and after 12 weeks of study drug administration. Mean trough value of the 3 measurements at the 2 timepoints was recorded.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Body Weight (kg) at Week 12 in Participants With Higher BMIBaseline and Week 12 (end of Phase A)Weight was measured in duplicate (2 measurements) at baseline and after 12 weeks of study drug administration. The mean of the 2 values at each assessment was used in analysis.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Waist Circumference at Week 12 in Participants With Higher BMIBaseline and Week 12 (end of Phase A)Waist circumference measured in cm at baseline and after 12 weeks of study drug administration
SecondaryPercent Change From Baseline in Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) at Week 12 in Participants With Higher Body Mass Indices (BMI)Baseline and Week 12 (end of Phase A)LDL-C was calculated by the method of Friedewald equation at baseline and after 12 weeks of study drug administration.
SecondaryChange From Baseline for High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) at Week 12 in Participants With Higher BMIBaseline and Week 12 (end of Phase A)HDL-C measured at baseline and after 12 weeks of study drug administration.
