Clinical Trial Summary

Two-centre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, and multiple-dose clinical study followed by two open label extension periods.

Description:

Two-centre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, and multiple-dose clinical study. Study medication will be administered for 91 days. The study will be conducted in two steps:

• Step 1 - 9 adult subjects with PWS was treated.

• Sponsor review - following the completion of the treatment of the adult subjects, unblinded efficacy, safety, Pharmacokinetic (PK) data as well as all data from the study in subjects with type 2 diabetes (TM001) will be reviewed by sponsor and an interim analysis will be done. Following competent authority positive opinion regarding the interim analysis and unblinded data the study will proceed to:

• Step 2 - 9 adolescent subjects with PWS was treated.

• OLE (Open Label Extension) I - Participation in a 12-week OLE I was offered to subjects who completed Step 2. 8 subjects entered OLE I.

• OLE (Open Label Extension) II - Participation in a 12-week OLE II was offered to subjects who completed OLE I. 6 subjects continued to OLE II.

Secondary	Change From Baseline to End of Treatment in Hyperphagia Questionnaire for Clinical Trials (HQ-CT) Score	Change from baseline to end of treatment in HQ-CT score. LOCF. HQ-CT score was based upon a questionnaire with 9 items, each of them yielding a score between 0 and 4 resulting in a maximum HQ-CT score of 36. Change in HQ-CT answers (by question and in total) calculated as score at visit 2, 5, 9 or 14 minus score at screening visit 1 was analysed and presented using standard descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, minimum and maximum value). A decrease in total score indicates an improvement in hyperphagia. If less than three questions were answered by a subject, the missing answers were imputed by the mean score of all other available answers. In case of more than three missing answers, the total score was not calculated. For further information please refer to protocol appendix section 17.1.
