Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Co-Primary Outcome: Placebo-adjusted percent weight loss [Percentage change from Baseline to Day 171]

    super-superiority margin of 3% in addition to superiority as of 02/2016

  2. Co-Primary Outcome: Weight loss of at least 5% in greater than or equal to 35% of subjects on Gelesis100 [5% weight loss from Baseline to Day 171]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Percent body weight change in subjects with impaired plasma glucose status at baseline [Baseline to Day 171]

  2. Change in plasma glucose status (normal, impaired, diabetic) in subjects with impaired plasma glucose status at baseline [Baseline to Day 171]

  3. Percent change in plasma glucose in subjects with impaired plasma glucose status and type 2 diabetes at baseline [Baseline to Day 171]

  4. Change in BMI [Baseline to Day 171]

  5. Change in HbA1c in subjects with type 2 diabetes at baseline [Baseline to Day 171]

Other Outcome Measures

  1. Assess safety and tolerability of administration of Gelesis100 [Baseline to Day 197]
