Summary

This study looks at the long-term safety and effects of a drug called bivamelagon in people with hypothalamic obesity, a condition where the brain's hunger control is damaged. About 25 participants who completed a previous study will take the drug for up to 2 years. Researchers will track side effects and changes in weight and body mass index.
