| Main Objective: The primary objectives of the study are: • To examine the efficacy of Tesomet over 16 weeks on hyperphagia in adult and adolescent subjects with PWS and to inform the dose selections for the Phase 3 study; and • To assess the safety and tolerability of Tesomet over 16 weeks in adult and adolescent subjects with PWS. ;Secondary Objective: The secondary objectives of the study are: • To examine the efficacy of Tesomet on body weight in adult and adolescent subjects with PWS; • To examine the efficacy of Tesomet on hyperphagia based on Caregivers’ Global Impressions of Hyperphagia Severity and Change in adult and adolescent subjects with PWS; • To examine the efficacy of Tesomet on overall health based on Clinicians’ Global Impressions of PWS Severity and Change in adult and adolescent subjects with PWS; • To examine the effects of Tesomet on heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) in adult and adolescent subjects with PWS; and • To examine the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of tesofensine and metoprolol in adult and adolescent subjects with PWS.;Primary end point(s): Efficacy endpoint : The primary efficacy endpoint is the change in total HQ-CT score from Baseline to Week 16. Safety endpoints: • The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) of special interest (secondary endpoint); • The incidence of TEAEs and treatment-emergent serious adverse events (TESAEs); • The incidence of MACE; • Laboratory evaluation (chemistry and hematology) results at Baseline and at all site visits; • Vital sign measurements at Baseline and at Week 8 and Week 16; • ECG assessments at Baseline and at Week 8 and Week 16; •Physical examination findings at Baseline and at Week 8 and Week 16; • C-SSRS administered by a trained rater at Baseline and at all visits; and • The Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC) completed by the caregiver at Baseline and at all visits to assess the change in behavior.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: from Baseline to Week 16 | — |
