Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of NB relative to placebo on major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) such as cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke in overweight and obese subjects who are at a higher risk of having these events because they have diabetes and/or other cardiovascular risk factors.

Outcome Measures
Go to 
Top of Page Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With a Confirmed Occurrence of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Event (MACE) [ Time Frame: Confirmed occurrence of event between Day 1 (randomization) and up to a maximum of 4 years of follow-up ]
    The primary endpoint is the time from randomization to the first confirmed occurrence of any event within the primary MACE composite (defined as cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, or nonfatal stroke). Due to early termination of the study, pre-planned 50% interim analysis is considered the primary analysis for outcome measures. The pre-planned 50% interim analysis was conducted when 50% of the total planned MACE were observed.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With a Confirmed Occurrence of Cardiovascular Death, Nonfatal Myocardial Infarction, Nonfatal Stroke, or Nonfatal Unstable Angina Requiring Hospitalization [ Time Frame: Confirmed occurrence of event between Day 1 (randomization) and up to a maximum of 4 years of follow-up ]
    Due to early termination of the study, the pre-planned 50% interim analysis is considered the primary analysis for outcome measures.

  2. Percentage of Participants With a Confirmed Occurrence of Cardiovascular Death (Including Fatal Myocardial Infarction, Fatal Stroke) [ Time Frame: Confirmed occurrence of event between Day 1 (randomization) and up to a maximum of 4 years of follow-up ]
    Due to early termination of the study, the pre-planned 50% interim analysis is considered the primary analysis for outcome measures.

  3. Percentage of Participants With a Confirmed Occurrence of Myocardial Infarction (Nonfatal or Fatal) [ Time Frame: Confirmed occurrence of event between Day 1 (randomization) and up to a maximum of 4 years of follow-up ]
    Due to early termination of the study, the pre-planned 50% interim analysis is considered the primary analysis for outcome measures.

  4. Percentage of Participants With a Confirmed Occurrence of Stroke (Nonfatal or Fatal) [ Time Frame: Confirmed occurrence of event between Day 1 (randomization) and up to a maximum of 4 years of follow-up ]
    Due to early termination of the study, the pre-planned 50% interim analysis is considered the primary analysis for outcome measures.
