- Assess the safety of DCCR by evaluating the incidence and severity of adverse events reported [ Time Frame: Baseline to end of OLE (up to 4 years) ]Safety analyses will be conducted in all participants who receive at least one dose of DCCR. Adverse events will be described by type and level of severity.
- Change from RW Period Baseline in HQ-CT Total Score [ Time Frame: RW Period Baseline to Week 16 ]Hyperphagia-related behaviors will be assessed by the hyperphagia questionnaire for clinical trials (HQ-CT), an instrument designed to measure symptoms of food related preoccupations and behaviors. The HQ-CT consists of nine items with responses ranging from 0-4 (best to worst). Scores from 9 items will be summed for a possible total score range of 0-36.
- Change from Baseline in HQ-CT Total Score [ Time Frame: Baseline to end of OLE (up to 4 years) ]Hyperphagia-related behaviors will be assessed by the hyperphagia questionnaire for clinical trials (HQ-CT), an instrument designed to measure symptoms of food related preoccupations and behaviors. The HQ-CT consists of nine items with responses ranging from 0-4 (best to worst). Scores from 9 items will be summed for a possible total score range of 0-36.
- Change in Body Fat Mass [ Time Frame: Baseline to end of OLE (up to 4 years) ]Change in Body Fat Mass (kg) using DXA
- Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) [ Time Frame: RW Period Week 16 ]CGI-I is a single statement designed to assess the Investigator's overall perception of change in the subject's condition across the course of the clinical trial. The Investigator provides a response to "Compared to the subject's condition at enrollment, the subject's condition is:" by rating the subject's behavior using a 7-point response scale (best to worst).
- Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S) [ Time Frame: RW Period Week 16 ]The CGI-S is a single statement designed to assess the Investigator's overall perception of the severity of the participant's illness across the course of the clinical trial. The Investigator provides a response to "Considering your total clinical experience with this particular population, how ill is this participant at this time:" by rating the subject's behavior using a 7-point response scale (best to worst).
- Assess the safety of DCCR by evaluating the incidence and severity of adverse events reported [ Time Frame: through the end of the RW Period, 16 weeks ]Safety analyses will be conducted in all participants who receive at least one dose of randomized withdrawal study drug. Adverse events will be described by type and level of severity.
