Incidence of Adverse Events, Including Injection Site Reactions
An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a medicinal product, and which did not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. Rate of AEs per 100 patient years at risk with onset after the first administration of trial product and up until end of the trial (53 weeks) or 14 days after last trial drug administration, whichever came first, are presented.
Time frame: Weeks 0-53
Change in Cross-sectional Total Adipose Tissue Compartments
Cross-sectional total adipose tissue compartments (TAT) were determined by quantitative computed tomography (CT) scans. Change from baseline (week 0) to end of treatment period (52 weeks) in cross-sectional TAT compartments is presented.
Time frame: Week 0, week 52
Change in Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue Compartments
Subcutaneous adipose tissue compartments (SAT) was determined by quantitative CT scans. Change from baseline (week 0) to end of treatment period (52 weeks) in SAT compartments is presented.
Time frame: Week 0, week 52
Change in Intra-abdominal or Visceral Adipose Tissue Compartments
Intra-abdominal or visceral adipose tissue (VAT) compartments was determined by quantitative CT scans. Change from baseline (week 0) to end of treatment period (52 weeks) in VAT compartments is presented.
Time frame: Week 0, week 52
Change in Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM-9) Scores
The Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication - 9 items (TSQM-9) is a generic questionnaire that measures a patients' satisfaction with medication. Items are rated on a 5-point or 7-point scale according to patients' experience with the medication. The items covered are satisfaction with the effectiveness of the medication, convenience and global satisfaction of treatment. Each domain is based on 3 questions. The score is calculated in a range from 0 to 100, where a higher score reflects a better outcome. Scores have been summed and then scaled to 0-100. Change in TSQM-9 scores from baseline (week 0) to week 52 are presented.
Time frame: Week 0, week 52
Change in Physical Examination
Physical examination parameters were evaluated for head, ears, eyes, nose, throat, neck; respiratory system; cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal system, incl. mouth; musculoskeletal system; nervous system (central and peripheral); skin; and lymph node palpation.

Results are presented for week 0 and week 52.
Time frame: Week 0, week 52

Change from baseline (week 0) in pulse at week 52 is presented.
Time frame: Week 0, week 52
Change in ECG
