Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must have an AHI of 15 or higher on polysomnography (PSG) at Day 1 before randomization. * Body Mass Index (BMI) of 27 kg/m\^2 or more at the time of screening. * History of at least one unsuccessful attempt at weight loss through diet and exercise. * Participants must not have used PAP therapy for at least 4 weeks before screening, are unwilling/unable to use PAP, and do not plan to use PAP therapy during the study. Exclusion Criteria: * Individuals who have had any previous or planned upper airway surgery for sleep apnea or major ear, nose, or throat surgery. * Those with significant craniofacial abnormalities that may affect breathing at screening. * Participants diagnosed with Central Apnea with a percentage of central apneas/hypopneas of 50% or more, or those diagnosed with Cheyne Stokes Respiration. * Active device treatment of OSA (eg, PAP, oral appliances), or other treatments, that in the opinion of the investigator, may interfere with study outcomes, unless willing to stop treatment at screening and throughout the study. * Individuals with respiratory diseases like obesity hypoventilation syndrome or daytime hypercapnia, neuromuscular diseases or other conditions that could interfere with the trial results, according to the investigator's opinion.
