Percent of Participants With Improvement on Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) Scores
Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) consists of a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Improvement is defined as a score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved) on the scale.
Time frame: Up to 12 weeks
Percent of Participants With a 4-Week Cessation From Binge Eating
4-week cessation from binge eating is defined as no binge eating episodes for 28 consecutive days prior to the last study visit.
Time frame: Up to 12 weeks
Percent Change From Baseline in Body Weight (kg) at Week 12
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
Change From Baseline in Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale Modified for Binge Eating (Y-BOCS-BE) Total Score at Week 12
The Y-BOCS-BE measures the obsession of binge-eating thoughts and compulsiveness of binge-eating behaviors. The scale is a clinician-rated, 10-item scale, each item rated from 0 (no symptoms) to 4 (extreme symptoms). Total scores range from 0 to 40. Reduction in total score indicates improvement.

Binge Eating Response
Response is based on the reduction in the number of binge eating episodes. Responses were categorized as follows: -1-week Cessation = 100% reduction in binge episodes during the preceding 7 days -Marked Reduction = 99% to 75% reduction during the time since the previous visit -Moderate Reduction = 74% to 50% reduction during the time since the previous visit -Negative to Minimal Reduction = \<50% reduction during the time since the previous visit
Time frame: Up to 12 weeks

Change From Baseline in Eating Inventory Scores at Week 12
There are 36 true/false items, 14 items on a 4-point Likert scale (1=eat rarely to 4=always), and 1 item on a 6-point Likert scale (1=eat whatever you want to 6=constantly limiting food intake). Cognitive Restraint score ranges from 0-21. Hunger score ranges from 0-14. Disinhibition score ranges from 0-16. Higher scores denote higher levels of restrained eating, disinhibited eating and predisposition to hunger.
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
Change From Baseline in Binge Eating Scale (BES) Score at Week 12
The BES is a self-reported questionnaire containing 16 items designed to assess behavioral, affective, and attitudinal components of the subjective experience of binge eating. Each item is assessed based on 1 of 4 responses, with 1 denoting that a subject has greater control over eating behavior and 4 denoting that a subject had less control over eating behavior. A total score (sum of the 16 items) may range from 16-64. A lower score indicates greater control over eating behavior.
Time frame: Baseline and week 12
Change From Baseline in Frontal Systems Behavior (FrSBe) Total Score at Up to 12 Weeks
The FrSBe is a 46-item self-rating scale designed to measure the neurobehavioral traits associated with the 3 primary regions of the prefrontal cortex. Subjects were asked to indicate the frequency with which they have engaged in certain behaviors using a rating scale from "1" (almost never) to "5" (almost always). Summary scores were calculated and converted to t-score. A decrease from baseline in FrSBe total score represents improvement.
Time frame: Baseline and up to 12 weeks
