Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Hyperphagia Questionnaire (HQ-CT) Change From Baseline at Visit 7 (Week 13)Baseline to Visit 7 (Week 13)

Hyperphagia-related behaviors were assessed by the validated hyperphagia questionnaire for clinical trials (HQ-CT), an instrument designed to measure symptoms of food related preoccupations and behaviors that was completed by the caregiver. The HQ-CT consists of nine items with responses ranging from 0-4 units each (possible total score range: 0-36). The HQ-CT was assessed at Screening, Baseline (Visit 2), and approximately every 4 weeks post-dose at Week 4, Week 8, and Week 13. A decrease in score from baseline represented improvement.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Caregiver Global Impression of Change (GI-C) at Visit 7 (Week 13)at Visit 7 (Week 13)

The Caregiver Global Impression of Change (GI-C) is a single statement designed to assess the caregiver's overall perception of change in the subject across the course of the clinical trial. The caregiver provided a response to "Please choose the response below that best describes the overall change in the person's PWS since they started taking the study medication" using a 7-point graded response scale: Very much better, Moderately better, A little better, No change, A little worse, Moderately worse, and Very much worse.

Change in Fat Mass (kg) From Baseline at Visit 7 (Week 13)Baseline to Visit 7 (Week 13)

Whole body scans were performed. Reports included a breakdown of the following regions: left arm, right arm, trunk, left leg, right leg, and head. Each region was evaluated for body fat mass (g).

Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) at Visit 7 (Week 13)at Visit 7 (Week 13)

The Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) is a single statement designed to assess the Investigator's overall perception of change in the subject's condition across the course of the clinical trial. The Investigator provided a response to "Compared to the subject's condition at enrollment, the subject's condition is:" by rating the subject's behavior using a 7-point response scale: Very much improved, Much improved, Minimally improved, No change, Minimally worse, Much worse, and Very much worse. The Investigator only took into account the subject's PWS condition.
