The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of TM30339 on weight loss in obese individuals after 28 days dosing.

Obesity is a disease with large socioeconomic consequences and many serious health consequences including Type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia and cardiovascular diseases. The prevalence of obesity is increasing both in developed and developing countries. There is a great need for further medicinal treatments that effectively will support life style changes or surgical procedures in reducing or maintaining bodyweight.

7TM Pharma has identified TM30339 as a clinical development candidate molecule with potential to assist in the control and amelioration of obesity in humans.
