Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in the Number of Binge Days Per Week at Visit 8 Which Spans Weeks 11/12Baseline and Visit 8 Which Spans Weeks 11/12

Binge days defined as days during which at least 1 binge episode occurred. As assessed by clinical interview based on subject binge diary.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in Hemoglobin A1c Levels at Up to 12 WeeksBaseline and up to 12 weeks
Change From Baseline in the Number of Binge Episodes Per Week at Visit 8 Which Spans Weeks 11/12Baseline and Visit 8 Which Spans Weeks 11/12
Percent Change From Baseline in Body Weight (kg) at Week 12Baseline and week 12
Change From Baseline in Fasting Triglyceride Levels at Up to 12 WeeksBaseline and up to 12 weeks
EuroQoL Group 5-Dimension 5-Level Self-Report (EQ-5D-5L): Anxiety/DepressionUp to 12 weeks
Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)Up to 12 weeks

C-SSRS is a semi-structured interview that captures the occurence, severity, and frequency of suicide-related thoughts and behaviors during the assessment period. The interview includes definitions and suggested questions to solicit the type of information needed to determine if a suicide-related thought or behaviour occurred. The assessment is done by the nature of the responses, not by a numbered scale.

Percent of Participants With Improvement on Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) ScoresUp to 12 weeks

Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) consists of a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Improvement is defined as a score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved) on the scale.

Change From Baseline in Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale Modified for Binge Eating (Y-BOCS-BE) Total Score at Week 12Baseline and week 12

The Y-BOCS-BE measures the obsession of binge-eating thoughts and compulsiveness of binge-eating behaviors. The scale is a clinician-rated, 10-item scale, each item rated from 0 (no symptoms) to 4 (extreme symptoms). Total scores range from 0 to 40. Reduction in total score indicates improvement.

EuroQoL Group 5-Dimension 5-Level Self-Report (EQ-5D-5L): Pain/DiscomfortUp to 12 weeks
Percent of Participants With a 4-Week Cessation From Binge EatingUp to 12 weeks

4-week cessation from binge eating is defined as no binge eating episodes for 28 consecutive days prior to the last study visit.

Change From Baseline In Fasting Total Cholesterol Levels at Up to 12 WeeksBaseline and up to 12 weeks
Binge Eating ResponseUp to 12 weeks

Response is based on the reduction in the number of binge eating episodes. Responses were categorized as follows: -1-week Cessation = 100% reduction in binge episodes during the preceding 7 days -Marked Reduction = 99% to 75% reduction during the time since the previous visit -Moderate Reduction = 74% to 50% reduction during the time since the previous visit -Negative to Minimal Reduction = \<50% reduction during the time since the previous visit

Change From Baseline in Frontal Systems Behavior (FrSBe) Total Score at Up to 12 WeeksBaseline and up to 12 weeks

The FrSBe is a 46-item self-rating scale designed to measure the neurobehavioral traits associated with the 3 primary regions of the prefrontal cortex. Subjects were asked to indicate the frequency with which they have engaged in certain behaviors using a rating scale from "1" (almost never) to "5" (almost always). Summary scores were calculated and converted to t-score. A decrease from baseline in FrSBe total score represents improvement.

Change From Baseline in Eating Inventory Scores at Week 12Baseline and week 12

There are 36 true/false items, 14 items on a 4-point Likert scale (1=eat rarely to 4=always), and 1 item on a 6-point Likert scale (1=eat whatever you want to 6=constantly limiting food intake). Cognitive Restraint score ranges from 0-21. Hunger score ranges from 0-14. Disinhibition score ranges from 0-16. Higher scores denote higher levels of restrained eating, disinhibited eating and predisposition to hunger.

Change From Baseline in Binge Eating Scale (BES) Score at Week 12Baseline and week 12

The BES is a self-reported questionnaire containing 16 items designed to assess behavioral, affective, and attitudinal components of the subjective experience of binge eating. Each item is assessed based on 1 of 4 responses, with 1 denoting that a subject has greater control over eating behavior and 4 denoting that a subject had less control over eating behavior. A total score (sum of the 16 items) may range from 16-64. A lower score indicates greater control over eating behavior.

EuroQoL Group 5-Dimension 5-Level Self-Report (EQ-5D-5L): MobilityUp to 12 weeks

Quality of life was assessed using the EQ-5D-5L, which is one of the most widely used generic index measures of health-related quality of life. It consists of a 5-item descriptive system that measures 5 dimensions of health, including mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression.

EuroQoL Group 5-Dimension 5-Level Self-Report (EQ-5D-5L): Self-CareUp to 12 weeks
EuroQoL Group 5-Dimension 5-Level Self-Report (EQ-5D-5L): Usual ActivitiesUp to 12 weeks
Change in Amphetamine Cessation Symptom Assessment (ACSA) Total Score From Baseline to Week 12.Baseline and Week 12

ACSA scale has 16 symptom items rated on a scale from 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely) with a possible total score range of 0 to 64. Higher scores indicate greater withdrawal symptom severity. Calculated as Baseline (Day 0) - Week 12 ACSA scores.
