Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

To be eligible for enrollment into this study, subjects must meet all of the following criteria:

* Completion of study OB-303 (NCT00553787) on treatment and compliance with all protocol requirements
* Written informed consent
* Female subjects of childbearing potential must be using adequate contraception, defined as double-barrier methods, stable hormonal contraception plus single barrier method, or tubal ligation. Female subjects are considered to be of childbearing potential unless they have undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy, are ≥55 years of age and experienced spontaneous cessation of menses for at least 1 year, or have a documented follicle-stimulating hormone level ≥40 IU/L
* Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria

Subjects will not be included in the study if they meet any of the following:

* Body mass index ≤22 kg/m2 at the completion of study OB-303
* Off study medication at completion of study OB-303 (NCT00553787) for longer than 4 weeks continuously due to an event-driven holiday, or off study medication with no plans to restart
* Development of any condition during study OB-303 (NCT00553787) that, in the opinion of the investigator, would contraindicate the administration of study medication, affect compliance, interfere with study evaluations, or confound the interpretation of study results
* Participation in a formal weight loss program (including: Weight Watchers and related dietary/lifestyle intervention programs; prepared food programs; prescribed or over the counter weight loss medications; dietary supplement or herbal preparations, teas, or tinctures intended for weight loss; or any supervised fast or very low calorie diet).
