Study DFA102E is an extension of Study DFA102, which included a 28-week treatment period with randomized study medication. The purpose of the extension study is to examine the long-term (up to 1 year) safety, tolerability, and effect on body weight of treatment with pramlintide and metreleptin, administered as separate subcutaneous (SC) injections, in obese and overweight subjects.

LS Mean Percent Change in Body Weight From Original Study DFA102 (NCT00673387) Baseline (Day 1) at Week 52 in Extension Study DFA102E - Evaluable Treatment Stable Population
Original study DFA102 (NCT00673387) baseline refers to Visit 5 (Day 1). If Day 1 value was missing or after the first dose date of randomized study medication, the last available value on or prior to Day 1 was used. Least Squares (LS) Mean based on a repeated measures mixed model with treatment, sex, DFA102 baseline BMI category, nominal week, treatment by nominal week interaction as factors, and DFA102 baseline weight value as a covariate, with a heterogeneous compound symmetry error covariance structure within each treatment group. Stable population consists of all ITT participants (received at least one injection of treatment) who had the same treatment group assignment in Study DFA102 and Study DFA102E, ie, ITT participants who were in Study DFA102 treatment groups Placebo, Pramlintide 360 + Metreleptin 1.25, Pramlintide 360 + Metreleptin 2.5 and Pramlintide 360 + Metreleptin 5.0.

LS Mean Absolute Change in Body Weight From Original Study Baseline (Day 1) at Weeks 12, 28, 36, 44, and 52 - Evaluable Treatment Stable Population
Original study DFA102 (NCT00673387) baseline refers to Visit 5 (Day 1). If Day 1 value was missing or after the first dose date of randomized study medication, the last available value on or prior to Day 1 was used.

Fasting Total Leptin Concentration by Visit and Pooled Metreleptin Stable Treatment by Metreleptin Dose - Week 52 Stable Evaluable Population
Baseline is Day 1 in original study DFA102, baseline in DFA102E is Week 28. Follow up is 3 - 28 days after the end of treatment period. As total leptin is measured, placebo arm was not included in the evaluation. Fasting total leptin is measured in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL). The assay for measuring total plasma leptin is not specific for metreleptin and detects both endogenous leptin and exogenous metreleptin.

Mean Absolute Change From Original Study DFA102 Screening at Week 52 in Extension Study DFA102E in Susceptibility to Eating Questionnaire (SEQ) Item Scores - Week 52 Evaluable Population
The eating questionnaire is an exploratory measure of appetite, satiety, and perceived control over portion size using 10 items, with each response measured on a 100 mm visual analogue scale (VAS). Ranges vary from: Never to Very Often; Not at All Difficult to Extremely Difficult; Not at all Strong to Very Strong). Lower scores show improvement. The Eating Questionnaire instructed participants to rate their responses to these items over the past 7 days.
