What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The change in body weight over the 54-week active therapy phase of the study

    body weight at 54 weeks compared to body weight at start of treatment

    Measured: 54 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in body composition: calculated body mass index, waist circumference, hip circumference, and calculated waist-to-hip ratio

    Change in body weight, waist measurement, and hip measurement

    Measured: 54 weeks

  2. Steady-state/trough pharmacokinetic analysis

    Trough plasma concentration at various times after start of treatment

    Measured: After 3, 12, 24, 36, and 54 weeks

  3. Safety and tolerability of S-2367

    number of adverse events or changes in laboratory values

    Measured: 54 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing S-2367 800 mg, S-2367 1600 mg and Reduced Calorie Diet in people with Obesity, run by Shionogi at 38 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 23 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 11 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 38 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?

The change in body weight over the 54-week active therapy phase of the study (time frame: 54 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 May 2018.
