Outcomes

What the study measures.

Primary outcomes

Setmelanotide Concentration-related Placebo-corrected Change From Baseline (CHFB) in Fridericia's Correction (QTcF) at Day 10

Time frame · Baseline and Day 10: Pre dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,12, 16, 24 hours (hrs) postdose

Continuous 12-lead digital electrocardiogram (ECG) recording was performed on Baseline and Day 10. ECG analysts were blinded to the treatment, timepoint and participant. QT interval was corrected for heart rate using QTcF. CHFB in QTcF was calculated at each timepoint.

Setmelanotide Concentration-related Placebo-corrected CHFB in QTcF at Day 16

Time frame · Baseline and Day 16: Pre dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,12, 16, 24 hrs postdose

Continuous 12-lead digital ECG recording was performed on Baseline and Day 16. ECG analysts were blinded to the treatment, timepoint and participant. QT interval was corrected for heart rate using QTcF. CHFB in QTcF was calculated at each timepoint.

Secondary outcomes

Placebo-corrected CHFB in Heart Rate (HR) After Administration of SC Setmelanotide or Oral Moxifloxacin at Day 10

Time frame · Baseline and Day 10: Pre dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10,12, 16, 24 hours (hrs) postdose

The CHFB in HR was analyzed using an analysis of variance model (ANOVA) including treatment, time and their interaction as main factors and structuring the residual matrix in order to account for the repeated measurement pattern of the data. HR was considered as covariate. Placebo corrected values were reported in the inferential statistics.
