Brief summary

The aim of this 4-weeks randomized double-blind placebo-controlled single and multiple ascending dose study is to assess the Safety and Tolerability of LB54640 in Healthy overweight and obese subjects

Detailed description

The study was conducted in 2 parts: Part 1 (Single Ascending Dose) This study part included 6 sequential dose cohorts (S1-S6), enrolling 8 healthy subjects per cohort. Cohort S3 was evaluate the effect of food. Part 2 (Multiple Ascending Dose) This part included 7 sequential dose cohorts (M1-M7), enrolling 8 subjects per cohort. Cohorts was evaluate safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics parameters in healthy overweight and obese subjects. They were dosed once daily for 28 days with LB54640 or placebo.

Intervention model description

This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study conducted in two parts. Study Part 1 had a SAD design to investigate the safety, tolerability, and PK of LB54640 administered orally in healthy overweight and obese subjects. Study Part 1 included a cohort (Cohort S3) to assess the effect of food on LB54640, which was conducted with a blinded, placebo-controlled, two-way crossover design. Study Part 2 had a MAD design to investigate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of LB54640 administered orally in healthy overweight and obese subjects
