Overweight and Obesity
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is designed to assess the effect of Gelesis100 on body weight after an additional exposure of 24 weeks in subjects who completed the 24-week treatment period, and had at least 3% weight loss, in the Gelesis Loss Of Weight GLOW, NCT02307279) study.
Interventions
Three capsules of Gelesis100, each containing a 750 mg mixture of two food-grade materials: carboxymethylcellulose that is cross-linked with citric acid.
