- Brief Summary
This phase 2, double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study is to assess the safety and efficacy of miricorilant in obese adult with schizophrenia treated with antipsychotic medications.
- Detailed Description
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that will assess the safety, efficacy, and PK of miricorilant in obese patients with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder who are currently taking oral or injectable atypical antipsychotic medication.
Patients who meet the criteria for the Study CORT118335-876 will be randomized on Day 1 to receive 600 mg miricorilant or placebo for 12 weeks.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change From Baseline in Body Weight at Week 12 for 600 mg Miricorilant Versus Placebo Baseline Day 1 and Week 12 Number of Patients With One or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events Up to Follow-up Visit (Week 16) Number of Patients With One or More Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events Up to Follow-up Visit (up to Week 16) Number of Patients With One or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events Leading to Early Study Discontinuation Up to Follow-up Visit (up to Week 16)
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Percentage of Patients Achieving More Than or Equal to 5% Weight Loss Baseline Day 1 to Week 12 Change From Baseline in HOMA-IR at Week 12 Baseline Day 1 and Week 12 HOMA-IR = \[fasting plasma glucose (mg/dL) X fasting insulin (µU/mL)\]/405. HOMA-IR is a method to evaluate insulin sensitivity. The HOMA-IR score should be ≤1.0 to be considered normal. A score \>1.9 indicates early insulin resistance and a score \>2.9 indicates significant insulin resistance.
Change From Baseline in Waist-to-hip Ratio at Week 12 Baseline Day 1 and Week 12 Waist-to-hip ratio compares the circumference of the waist to the circumference of the hips. The ratio is calculated by dividing the waist measurement by the hip measurement, using the same units of measurement for both. A waist-to-hip ratio \<0.95 in men and \<0.80 in women is considered healthy.
