Brief Summary:
The purpose of the study was to assess the efficacy of LB54640 in participants with rare genetic disorders of obesity

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
POMC Deficiency Obesity PCSK1 Deficiency Obesity LEPR Deficiency Obesity Drug: LB54640 Phase 2

Detailed Description:
Patients with obesity due to POMC, PCSK1 or LEPR deficiency will be enrolled to receive LB54640 by oral administration for 16 weeks. After 16 weeks of treatment, the participant may enter a long term extension phase and receive treatment for up to 1 year.

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 4 participants
Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Intervention Model Description: This is a study where each participant participates for up to 56 weeks. The study consists up to 7 visits to study center which include a Screening period, treatment period, and a follow-up period. Eligible participants who are willing to enter the long-term extension period and who are judged by the study doctor to have no safety concerns, will continue to receive LB54640 at the same dose level from the treatment period. The long-term extension period will be followed by a follow-up period
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: A Phase 2, Single-arm, Open-label Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of LB54640 in Patients With Obesity Due to POMC, PCSK1, or LEPR Deficiency.
Estimated Study Start Date : December 2023
Estimated Primary Completion Date : December 2024
Estimated Study Completion Date : December 2025


Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: POMC/PCSK1/LEPR cohort
LB54640 once daily by oral administration
Drug: LB54640
LB54640 QD Oral




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change of BMI [ Time Frame: From baseline to Week 16 ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Frequency and severity of adverse events (AE) [ Time Frame: From first dose up to Week 52 ]
  2. Frequency and severity of adverse events of special interest (AESI) [ Time Frame: From first dose up to Week 52 ]
  3. Mean change and mean percentage change from baseline in body weight [ Time Frame: From baseline up to Week 52 ]
  4. Mean change and mean percentage change from baseline in waist circumference. [ Time Frame: From baseline up to Week 52 ]
  5. Mean change and mean percentage change from baseline in Hunger Questionnaire Scores [ Time Frame: From baseline up to Week 52 ]
    The question will asked using the Hunger Questionnaire. The questionnaire consists of a new 5-item, patient-reported scale assessing major eating-related factors (worst and average hunger, appetite, craving, and satiety).

  6. Mean change and mean percentage change from baseline in body composition assessed by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry [ Time Frame: From baseline up to Week 52 ]
    Fat mass and lean mass will be measured through dual energy x-ray absorptiometry
