Extension Study of Protocol DFA102 to Examine the Long-Term Safety, Tolerability, and Effect on Body Weight of Pramlintide Administered in Combination With Metreleptin

Original study DFA102 (NCT00673387) baseline refers to Visit 5 (Day 1). If Day 1 value was missing or after the first dose date of randomized study medication, the last available value on or prior to Day 1 was used. Weeks 12 and 28 were in original study (Week 28 was baseline for extension study), while Weeks 36, 44, and 52 were in the extension study. Body weight was measured in kilograms (kg).

Baseline is Day 1 in original study DFA102, baseline in DFA102E is Week 28. Follow up is 3 - 28 days after the end of treatment period. As total leptin is measured, placebo arm was not included in the evaluation. Fasting total leptin is measured in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). The assay for measuring total plasma leptin is not specific for metreleptin and detects both endogenous leptin and exogenous metreleptin.

Baseline is the baseline in the original study DFA102 (Day 1). If Day 1 value was missing or after the first dose of drug, the last available value on or prior to Day 1 was used. Waist circumference was measured in centimeters (cm). Week 52, treatment stable evaluable population: those participants who enrolled and received at least 1 injection of any treatment (ITT); treatment regimens same in both DFA102/DFA102E (stable); evaluable: completed Week 52; complied with protocol, (per Sponsor prior to database lock); no major deviations during original study/extension. Additional exclusions based on clinical review of the data prior database lock.

Baseline is Day 1 in original study DFA102. If Day 1 value was missing or after the first dose of drug, the last available value on or prior to Day 1 was used. Percent change in body weight from baseline was categorized: Change greater than (>) 0% (Body weight gain); Change less than, equal to (<=) 0 to > -5% (No body weight change or body weight loss <5%); Change <= -5% (Body weight loss greater than, equal to (>=)5%); Change <= -5% to > -10% (Body weight loss >=5% and <10%); Change <= -10% (Body weight loss ≥10%); Change <= -10% to > -15% (Body weight loss >=10% and <15%); Change <= -15% (Body weight loss >=15%).

Baseline in extension study was Week 28; if value was missing or after the first dose in DFA102E, the last available value on or prior to Week 28 was used. Percent change in body weight from baseline was categorized: Change greater than (>) 0% (Body weight gain); Change less than, equal to (<=) 0 to > -5% (No body weight change or body weight loss <5%); Change <= -5% (Body weight loss greater than, equal to (>=)5%); Change <= -5% to > -10% (Body weight loss >=5% and <10%); Change <= -10% (Body weight loss ≥10%); Change <= -10% to > -15% (Body weight loss >=10% and <15%); Change <= -15% (Body weight loss >=15%).

The eating questionnaire is an exploratory measure of appetite, satiety, and perceived control over portion size using 10 items, with each response measured on a 100 mm visual analogue scale (VAS). Ranges vary from: Never to Very Often; Not at All Difficult to Extremely Difficult; Not at all Strong to Very Strong). Lower scores show improvement. The Eating Questionnaire instructed participants to rate their responses to these items over the past 7 days. Values were obtained for this questionnaire on Visit 3 in the screening period in DFA102 and at Weeks 28, 40, and 52 in DFA102E.

The Binge Eating Scale (BES) is a 16-item questionnaire that assesses the behavioral and cognitive correlates of binge eating, including participants' perceived self-control over eating behavior using a range of 1 to 4 with 1=positive perceptions and 4= negative perceptions. Lower scores show improvement. The minimum and maximum score for the BES instrument is 0 and 55, respectively; the higher the score the worse the outcome. Values were obtained for this questionnaire on Visit 3 in the screening period in DFA102 and at Weeks 28, 40, and 52 in DFA102E.

The HADS is a questionnaire that uses 14 items to assess both anxiety and depression over the past week. The odd numbered items constitute the anxiety subscale, and the even numbered items constitute the depression subscale. The individual response scores for each subscale component are added together to obtain the individual subscale scores. The minimum and maximum score for each subscale is 0 and 21, respectively. Lower scores show improvement. Values were obtained for this questionnaire on Visit 3 in the screening period in DFA102 and at Weeks 28, 40, and 52 in DFA102E.

The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is an eight-item questionnaire that assesses sleep propensity in daily situations of increasing sleepiness on a four-point scale with 0=would never doze and 3=high chance of dozing. Lower scores show improvement. Values were obtained for this questionnaire on Visit 3 in the screening period in DFA102 and at Weeks 28, 40, and 52 in DFA102E.

Mean fasting plasma total leptin concentration (nanograms per milliliter; ng/mL) change from baseline over time by pooled metreleptin dose (sex, baseline BMI category, and baseline value). Baseline defined as Day 1 in DFA102 study and Week 28 in study DFA102E. If Day 1 value was missing or after the first dose date of randomized study medication, the last available value on or prior to Day 1 was used. Follow up occurred 3-28 days after end of treatment. Leptin concentrations were measured using a validated immunoenzymetric assay utilizing polyclonal capture antibody, monoclonal detection antibody, and colorimetric readout by Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Week 52 Stable Evaluable: Enrolled and received at least 1 injection of any treatment (ITT); treatment regimens same in both DFA102/DFA102E (stable); evaluable: completed Week 52; complied with protocol, (per Sponsor prior to database lock); no major deviations during original study/extension.

Baseline refers to Day 1 of original study DFA102. If Day 1 value was missing or after the first dose date of randomized study medication, the last available value on or prior to Day 1 was used. Blood pressure was taken while the participant was sitting and was measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg).

Baseline refers to Day 1 of original study DFA102. If Day 1 value was missing or after the first dose date of randomized study medication, the last available value on or prior to Day 1 was used. Heart rate was measured while the participant was sitting and was measured in beats per minute (bpm).

A 12-Lead electrocardiogram (ECG) was obtained. The PR interval, which is the time from beginning of the P wave to the beginning of the QRS complex (Note: QRS complex is a name for the combination of 3 of the graphical deflections seen in an ECG); QRS interval, which is time from the beginning to the end of the QRS complex; QT interval (measure between Q wave and T wave in the heart's electrical cycle); and QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) were measured in milliseconds (msec).

Baseline refers to Day 1. If Day 1 value was missing or after the first dose date of randomized study medication, the last available value on or prior to Day 1 was used. Follow up occurred on Days 3 - 28 after treatment ended. Serum titer determinations for antibodies to metreleptin were made using a validated electrochemical luminescence (ECLA) bridging assay. Antibody titers were assessed according to the following dilutions: 0, 5, 25, 125, 625, 3125, 15625, and 78125. Participants were considered to have a positive titer to treatment-emergent antibodies to metreleptin at a given visit if they had a titer >=5 following a negative or missing titer at baseline or if they had a titer that had increased by at least 2 dilutions from a detectable level at baseline.
