This is a Phase 1, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled study in up to approximately 51 non-diabetic obese participants with a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2. Participants will be blinded, but investigators/site staff and sponsor will be unblinded for Cohort 1. In Cohorts 2 and 3 participants, investigators, and contract research organization personnel are blinded to investigational product and sponsor is unblinded. The participants will participate in the study for up to approximately 27 weeks, including a screening period (including a run-in), treatment period, and safety follow-up.~Participants will be randomized 4:1 to MEDI0382 (n=12) or placebo (n=3) for Cohort 1 and randomized 2:1 to MEDI0382 (n=12) or placebo (n=6) for Cohorts 2 and 3. In Cohort 1 participants randomized to MEDI0382 or placebo will be dosed daily with a weekly titration schedule until the highest clinically tolerated dose (CTD) is established. In Cohort 2 participants randomized to MEDI0382 or placebo will be dosed daily with a 2 week titration schedule up to the highest CTD is established in Cohort 1. In Cohort 3 participants randomized to MEDI0382 or placebo will be dosed daily with a 4 week participants schedule up to the highest CTD established in Cohort 1. Once the highest CTD is identified, participants will continue on the highest CTD for an additional 2 weeks of treatment for Cohort 1 and 3 and additional 4 weeks treatment for Cohort 2. All participants will return 28 days post last dose for a safety follow-up visit.
This is a Phase 1, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled study in up to approximately 51 non-diabetic obese participants with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35 kg/m^2. The participants will be observed among 3 separate cohorts and participate in the study for up to approximately 27 weeks, including a screening period (including a run-in), treatment period, and safety follow-up.
