Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of long-term treatment with Qsymia on the incidence of nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), nonfatal stroke, or cardiovascular death in overweight and obese subjects with documented cardiovascular disease (CVD).;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of the study are the following: • To evaluate the effect of long-term treatment with Qsymia on other cardiovascular morbidity and mortality endpoints in overweight and obese subjects with CVD; and • To evaluate the effect of long-term treatment with Qsymia on body weight and various cardiovascular and metabolic markers in comparison to placebo in overweight and obese subjects with CVD.;Primary end point(s): The primary efficacy endpoint is the time to the first occurrence of a primary outcome event: nonfatal MI, nonfatal stroke, or cardiovascular death.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Timepoint for evaluation of primary endpoint is the time of the the first occurrence of a primary outcome event: nonfatal MI, nonfatal stroke, or cardiovascular death.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): • Time to the first occurrence of fatal or nonfatal stroke; • Time to the first occurrence of cardiovascular death; • Time to the first occurrence of all-cause mortality; and • Time to the first occurrence of either cardiovascular death, MI, stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina, urgent revascularization, or hospitalization for HF.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Timepoint for evaluation of the secondary endpoint is the time of the first occurrence of the events.
