Objective
The protocol describes a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial with independent sub-studies of setmelanotide in patients with obesity and at least one of the specific gene variants in the Melanocortin-4 Receptor pathway:
POMC or PCSK1 (Sub-study 035a)
LEPR (Sub-study 035b)
SRC1 (Sub-study 035c)
SH2B1 (Sub-study 035d)
The objectives and endpoints are identical for these sub-studies.

Step2
Get screened to confirm eligibility
You may be asked to take part in prescreening to make sure you are eligible for a study. The prescreening process ensures it is safe for you to participate. During the prescreening process, you will be asked some questions and you may also be asked to schedule tests or procedures to confirm your eligibility.
-
Step3
Provide your consent to participate
If you are eligible and want to join the clinical trial or study, a member of the research team will ask for your consent to participate. To give consent, you will be asked to read and sign a consent form for the study. This consent form explains the study's purpose, procedures, risks, benefits and provides other important information, such as the study team's contact information.
