About this study

Official title: A 24-Week, Blinded, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Dose-Ranging Trial of Nasal PYY3-36 for Weight Loss in Healthy Obese Patients

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of nasal PYY3-36 on weight loss post 24 weeks of treatment.

Read the detailed description

This is a multi-center, Phase 2 double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in healthy obese patients. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of increasing nasal PYY3-36 dosing on weight loss post 24 weeks of treatment.

Secondary Objectives:

  • To evaluate the safety of three nasal PYY3 36 dose groups compared to nasal placebo
  • To compare the weight loss post 12 and 24 weeks of treatment for each of the three nasal PYY3 36 dose groups versus the nasal placebo group
  • To compare the proportion of patients who lose at least 5% and 10% of the baseline body weight post 12 and 24 weeks of therapy for each of the three nasal PYY3 36 dose groups versus the nasal placebo group
  • To compare the weight loss and proportion of patients who lose at least 5% of the baseline body weight post 12 and 24 weeks of treatment with sibutramine versus capsule placebo
  • To compare the weight loss and proportion of patients who lose at least 5% of the baseline body weight post 12 and 24 weeks of treatment with nasal placebo versus capsule placebo
  • To compare the weight loss and proportion of patients who lose at least 5% of the baseline body weight post 12 and 24 weeks of treatment with sibutramine versus the nasal PYY3 36 dose groups
  • To evaluate the effect of 12 and 24 weeks of treatment with nasal PYY3 36 and sibutramine on fasting lipid profile, plasma glucose, insulin, blood pressure and pulse, waist circumference and BMI
  • To evaluate the effect of 24 weeks of treatment with nasal PYY3 36 and sibutramine on HbA1c levels

A Phase 2 study testing PYY3-36 and Sibutramine in people with Obesity, run by Nastech Pharmaceutical Company, Inc. at 29 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Sep 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 29 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To evaluate the effect of increasing nasal PYY3 36 dosing on weight loss post 24 weeks of treatment (time frame: 24 Weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
