The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of ROSE-010 on food intake in female subjects with overweight and obesity. The secondary objectives of this study are the following: * To assess the efficacy of ROSE-010 on hunger; * To assess the efficacy of ROSE-010 on satiety; * To assess the efficacy of ROSE-010 on prospective consumption; * To assess the efficacy of ROSE-010 on desire to eat; * To assess the efficacy of ROSE-010 on palatability; * To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of ROSE-010 following subcutaneous (SC) administration on Day 1 and Day 7; and * To evaluate safety and tolerability of SC administrations of ROSE-010 to overweight and obese subjects.
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group Phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy, safety, and PK of daily administrations of the GLP-1 analogue ROSE-010 on appetite and food intake in overweight and obese female subjects. The study is planned to include 3 parallel groups, as follows: Group 1: 99 mcg ROSE-010 (15 subjects) administered SC once daily for 7 consecutive days. Group 2: 150 mcg ROSE-010 (15 subjects) administered SC once daily for 7 consecutive days. Group 3: Placebo (10 subjects) administered SC once daily for 7 consecutive days. On Day 1, subjects will be randomized to receive ROSE-010 or placebo. Study drug will be administered SC once daily (30 minutes before lunch) for 7 consecutive days (Days 1 to 7). Assessments of hunger, satiety, prospective consumption, desire to eat, palatability, and nausea will be performed. Blood samples will be collected to evaluate PK.

Food Consumption
The amount of food (weight and energy content) consumed during lunch after administration of ROSE-010 at 2 dose levels compared to placebo.
Time frame: 30 minutes
Hunger
Hunger across 6.5 hours of Area Under Evaluation (AUE) defined by time in hours (h) multiplied by the subject reported value on a visual analogue scale at each time point measured in mm on a 0 to 100 mm scale and where 0 is not hungry at all and 100 is maximum hunger. AUE is a sum of hunger across the time period and is calculated as h\*mm. Simplistically, if the subject was not hungry at all across the period the AUE would be zero. The higher the AUE number, the higher the level of hunger throughout the observation period.
Time frame: 6.5 hours Day 7
Satiety
Satiety across 6.5 hours of Area Under Evaluation (AUE) defined by time in hours (h) multiplied by the subject reported value on a visual analogue scale at each time point measured in mm on a 0 to 100 mm scale and where 0 is not feeling full at at all and 100 is maximum feeling of fullness. AUE is a sum of satiety across the time period and is calculated as h\*mm. Simplistically, if the subject was not full at all across the period the AUE would be zero. The higher the AUE number, the higher the level of satiety throughout the observation period.
Time frame: 6.5 hours Day 7
Prospective Consumption
Prospective consumption across 6.5 hours of Area Under Evaluation (AUE) defined by time in hours (h) multiplied by the subject reported value on a visual analogue scale at each time point measured in mm on a 0 to 100 mm scale and where 0 is indicates no anticipated need to eat and 100 is maximum anticipated need to eat. AUE is a sum of prospective consumption across the time period and is calculated as h\*mm. Simplistically, if the subject has no anticipated need or desire to eat at all across the period the AUE would be zero. The higher the AUE number, the higher the level of prospective consumption throughout the observation period.
Time frame: 6.5 hours Day 7
Desire to Eat
Desire to eat across 6.5 hours of Area Under Evaluation (AUE) defined by time in hours (h) multiplied by the subject reported value on a visual analogue scale at each time point measured in mm on a 0 to 100 mm scale and where 0 is no desire to eat at all and 100 is maximum desire to eat. AUE is a sum of the desire to eat across the time period and is calculated as h\*mm. Simplistically, if the subject had no desire to eat at all across the period the AUE would be zero. The higher the AUE number, the higher the desire to eat throughout the observation period.
Time frame: 6.5 hours Day 7
Palatability
Palatability (tastiness) score on a visual analogue scale (0 to 100 mm) where 0 is not palatable at all and 100 is the maximum palatibility. The higher the score, the more palatable the reported outcome.
Time frame: 30 minutes Day 7
Nausea
Nausea across 6.5 hours of Area Under Evaluation (AUE) defined by time in hours (h) multiplied by the subject reported value on a visual analogue scale at each time point measured in mm on a 0 to 100 mm scale and where 0 is not nauseous at all and 100 is maximum nausea. AUE is a sum of hunger across the time period and is calculated as h\*mm. Simplistically, if the subject was not nauseous at all across the period, the AUE would be zero. The higher the AUE number, the higher the level of nausea throughout the observation period.
