Title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Fixed-Dose, Multicenter Study of Weight-Reducing Effect and Safety of SR141716 in Obese Patients With or Without Comorbidities (RIO-Europe)
Brief Summary: The primary objective was to assess the effect of SR141716 on weight loss and weight maintenance over a period of one year when prescribed with a hypocaloric diet in obese patients with or without comorbidities.

The main secondary objectives were to assess the effect of SR141716 on lipid parameters (HDL-C, TG), glucose tolerance status, the rate of patients with metabolic syndrome, waist circumference, glycemic parameters.
