Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Subjects Who Lose at Least 5 Percent of Baseline Body Weight After 24 Weeks of Treatment Weeks of Treatment

    Time frame: assessed after 24 weeks of treatment

  2. Average Body Weight Change After 24 Weeks of Treatment

    Time frame: assessed after 24 weeks of treatment

  3. Average Relative Change in Body Weight After 24 Weeks of Treatment

    Time frame: assessed after 24 weeks of treatment

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Subjects With a Decrease in Body Weight by 5 or More Percent of Baseline Body Weight After 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 Weeks of Treatment

    Time frame: assessed after 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 weeks of treatment

  2. Average Relative Weight Change After 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 Weeks of Treatment

    Time frame: assessed after 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24 weeks of treatment

  3. Waist Hip Ratio After 4, 12 and 24 Weeks of Treatment

    Time frame: assessed after 4,12 and 24 weeks of treatment

  4. Change in the Quality of Life According to the Data of SF-36 Health Status Survey Questionnaire (SF-36) After 4, 12 and 24 Weeks of Treatment
