About this trial
The goal of this intervention study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of multiple doses of MKP10241 in obese participants with and without T2DM in 3 parts. The main parameters it aims to answers are :
1. Does food effects the pharmacokinetic parameters following a single dose of MKP10241 in healthy participants? 2. Will multiple ascending doses of MKP10241 in obese participants with or without T2DM characterize changes in the plasma pharmacokinetic profile and pharmacodynamic effects? 3. What treatment emergent adverse events or discontinuation is experienced following single and multiple ascending doses of MKP10241 in healthy and obese participants with or without T2DM?
This study will be compared against a placebo which is matched in appearance to MKP10241 at dosage strengths.
Participants will:
1. Part 1: Take MKP10241 400 mg or Placebo on Day 1 and Day 8. Part 2: Take MKP10241 200 mg, 300 mg and 400 mg or Placebo daily from Day 1 to Day 28 Part 3: Take MKP10241 300 mg and 400 mg or Placebo daily from Day 1 to Day 28 2. Visit the clinical research unit for dose administration, admission or follow up. 3. Will be monitored by the Safety Monitoring Committee.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Part 1 - Food effect of single dose of MKP10241 on Maximum concentration of drug (Cmax)
Maximum concentration (Cmax) following a single 400 mg dose of MKP10241 under fasting and fed condition
Part 1 - Food effect of single dose of MKP10241 on Apparent total clearance of drug (CL/F)
Total Clearance of the drug following a single 400 mg dose of MKP10241 under fasting and fed conditions
Part 1 - Food effect of single dose of MKP10241 on Time to maximum concentration (Tmax)
Time to maximum concentration (Tmax) following a single 400 mg dose of MKP10241 under fasting and fed condition
Part 1 - Food effect of single dose of MKP10241 on elimination half life (t1/2 )
Elimination Half life (t1/2) following a single 400 mg dose of MKP10241 under fasting and fed conditions
Secondary outcomes
Part 1 - To evaluate the incidence of treatment emergent adverse events and of MKP10241 following a single dose administered orally under fasting and fed conditions.
It will be measured based on the Treatment emergent adverse events which includes significant changes in examination, blood and urine analysis, vital signs and ECG etc.
Part 2 - Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of MKP10241 following multiple doses in obese adult participants
Pharmacodynamic parameters - To evaluate surrogate markers of efficacy and mechanism of action in obese participants the below will be measured: Change in Heart Rate in beats per minute
Part 2 - Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of MKP10241 following multiple doses in obese adult participants
Pharmacodynamic parameters - To evaluate surrogate markers of efficacy and mechanism of action in obese participants given in the below will be measured: Change in body weight in kilograms
Part 2 - Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of MKP10241 following multiple doses in obese adult participants
Pharmacodynamic parameters - To evaluate surrogate markers of efficacy and mechanism of action in obese participants given in the below will be measured: Change in BMI in kilograms per meter square
Other outcomes
Part 2 - Impact of multiple doses of MKP10241 administered to obese participants without T2DM on participant Hunger and Satiety Visual Analogue Scale
Will be checked for change in participant Hunger and Satiety VAS score on Day 14 and Day 28 from baseline Participants will be asked to make a mark on a scale to indicate their hunger levels. The distance along line where the participant made their mark will be used as the measure. The distance in mm the participant marks on the scale will be used as a quantitative measure.Shorter means not hungry at all and higher means more hungry.
Part 2 - Impact of multiple doses of MKP10241 administered to obese participants without T2DM on participant Visceral fat
Visceral fats will be measured by MRI-PDFF. The change in magnetic resonance derived proton density visceral fat fraction i.e. percentage of fat in the whole abdominal region will be measured.
Part 3 - Impact of multiple doses of MKP10241 administered to obese participants with T2DM on participant Hunger levels and Satiety Visual Analogue Scale.
Will be checked for change in participant Hunger and Satiety VAS score on Day 14 and Day 28 from baseline(Day- 1) Participants will be asked to make a mark on a scale to indicate their hunger levels. The distance along line where the participant made their mark will be used as the measure. The distance in mm the participant marks on the scale will be used as a quantitative measure. Shorter means not hungry at all and higher means more hungry.
