Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if KBP-336 works to treat pain in osteoarthritis in individuals living with obesity. It will also learn about the effects on other parameters, such as quality of life and metabolism, as well as safety of KBP-336. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does KBP-336 lower knee pain from osteoarthritis in individuals with obesity
* Does KBP-336 lower bodyweight in the same population. Researchers will compare KBP-336 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if KBP-336 works to pain and obesity

Participants will:

* Take KBP-336 or a placebo every week for 6 months
* Visit the clinic once every 2 weeks for checkups and tests
* Keep a diary of their symptoms and the amount of medication they use in addition to KBP-336

Inclusion Criteria

1. The participant is able to read and understand the language and content of the study material and provide written Informed Consent.
2. Willing and able to comply with study requirements and instructions
3. A diagnosis of OA of the target knee based on American College of Rheumatology (ACR) clinical and radiographic criteria(31), with OA symptoms (as reported by the participant) that have been present for at least 3 months prior to screening
4. Radiological OA grade 2 or 3 of the target knee, using the Kellgren-Lawrence method as graded by a central reader on a Fixed-Flexion X-ray obtained during screening, or on a recent (within 6 months) X-ray which fulfills the protocol specifications for reading
5. Age ≥ 45 years of either sex
6. Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2
7. Good health, defined as no significantly relevant medical history or findings on physical examination, vital signs, ECG, and laboratory results in the opinion of the investigator.
8. Intolerance or insufficient pain relief with standard of care (e.g. physiotherapy, paracetamol, local or systemic NSAID, short term opioid use, injections of hyaluronic acid, or corticosteroids) for symptomatic OA in the index knee in the opinion of the investigator.
9. WOMAC pain subscale score in target knee at screening AND baseline ≥20 (0-50 scale)
10. Willing to withdraw from any pain medication including, but not limited to, Opioids (including semisynthetic opioids), Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs, with the exception of low-dose aspirin for thromboprophylaxis), COX-2 inhibitors, Topical medication, and Serotonin and Noradrenaline Reuptake Inhibitors (SNRIs e.g. Duloxetine) and only use the allowed Rescue Medications from baseline to Visit 13/ET (maximum 4000 mg paracetamol per day)

Exclusion Criteria

1. Partial or complete joint replacement of either knee
2. Target knee surgery or arthroscopy within 1 year prior to screening
3. Diagnosis of OA resulting from trauma within the last 5 years
4. Pain of the contralateral knee exceeding that of the target knee at the baseline visit, as measured by the WOMAC pain subscale
5. Planned major surgery within the next 6 months
6. Uncontrolled thyroid disease in the opinion of the Investigator based on medical history and laboratory results collected in screening
7. Participant-reported weight loss \>5% of body weight within the last 6 months of the screening visit
8. Bariatric surgery within the last 12 months of the screening visit
9. Current comorbid condition, other than OA, affecting target knee or systemic illness known to be significantly associated with arthritis or joint pathology affecting any joint, including but not necessarily limited to endocrinopathies, inflammatory, or autoimmune disease with significant joint involvement (e.g., Rheumatoid Arthritis); Seronegative Spondyloarthropathies (e.g. Ankylosing Spondylitis, Psoriasis arthritis, Reactive arthritis)
10. Conditions significantly affecting joint and bone health, in the opinion of the Investigator should be excluded (including but not limited to atrophic or hypotrophic OA, subchondral insufficiency fracture, osteonecrosis, osteoporotic fractures, excessive malalignment of the knee or severe chondrocalcinosis)
11. Active comorbid condition other than OA (e.g radicular back pain, bursitis, tendinitis) significantly affecting target knee pain reporting in the opinion of the investigator.
12. A Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) score of ≥ 15 at screening
