Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Effects of Co-administration of Tesofensine/Metoprolol Treatment vs. Placebo on 24-hour Mean Heart RateBaseline to Day 90

24-hour heart rate monitoring was based on telemetry measurements at baseline (Day -1 to 1, V2) and at the end of treatment (Day 90 to 91, V10). The heart rate was measured every minute and the mean was recorded for every hour.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline to End of Treatment in HbA1cBaseline to Day 90

HbA1c was measured from blood samples collected at baseline (Day 1, V2) and at the end of treatment (Day 90, V10). Additional HbA1c measurements were done during various visits (V6, V8 and V12).

Change From Baseline to End of Treatment in Body WeightBaseline to Day 90
