A Study to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Two Different Doses of Twice Daily Distal Jejunal-release Dextrose Beads Formulations Combined With a Gel Composition Compared to Placebos in Obese Subjects With Weight Related Comorbidities

Inclusion Criteria: * Male and female subjects between an age of 18 (or the legal age of consent in the jurisdiction where the study is conducted) and 75 at the time of signing Informed Consent Form (ICF). 2\. Body Mass Index (BMI) of 1. ≥30 kg/m2 2. ≥27 kg/m2 and \<30 kg/m2 with at least 1 of the following weight-related comorbidities * hypertension: on blood-pressure (BP)-lowering medication or having systolic BP (SBP) ≥140 mmHg or diastolic BP (DBP) ≥90 mmHg at Screening * dyslipidaemia: on lipid-lowering medication or having low-density lipoprotein (LDL) ≥160 mg/dL (4.1 mmol/L) or triglycerides ≥150 mg/dL (1.7 mmol/L), or high-density lipoprotein (HDL) \<40 mg/dL (1.0 mmol/L) for men or HDL \<50 mg/dL (1.3 mmol/L) for women at Screening * cardiovascular disease (for example, ischemic cardiovascular disease, New York Heart Association \[NYHA\] Functional Classification Class I-II heart failure.) * obstructive sleep apnoea (only in participants \>30 years of age) 3. Stable body weight for the 3 months prior to randomization (\<5% body weight gain and/or loss) 4. History of at least one self-reported unsuccessful dietary effort to lose body weight 5. Fully vaccinated against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) during Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Full Vaccination means having received all recommended doses of a COVID-19 vaccine listed by either of World Health Organization (WHO)-Emergency Use Listing (WHO-EUL), Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or European Medicines Agency (EMA) or a mix and match series composed of any heterologous combination of WHO-EUL/FDA/EMA-approved or authorized COVID-19 vaccines. Alternatively, a proven recovery from a COVID-19 infection in combination with at least one vaccination with a WHO, FDA, EMA listed vaccine qualifies as a full vaccination. The vaccination program must have been completed at least two weeks prior ICF signed. For the avoidance of doubt, the vaccination scheme received shall be in compliance with the current rules defined by the relevant health authorities in the US or Europe. 6\. Capable of giving signed informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the ICF and in this protocol Exclusion Criteria: * 1\. Prior or planned surgical treatment for obesity (excluding liposuction or abdominoplasty, if performed \>1 year prior to screening) 2. Obesity induced by other endocrinologic disorders (for example, Cushing's syndrome) or diagnosed monogenetic or syndromic forms of obesity (for example, Melanocortin 4 Receptor deficiency or Prader-Willi Syndrome) 3. Plan to have endoscopic and/or device-based therapy for obesity or have had device removal within the last 12 months prior to screening including but not limited to * mucosal ablation * gastric artery embolization * intragastric balloon * duodenal-jejunal endoluminal liner. 4. Renal impairment measured as estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \<30 mL/min/1.73 m2 during screening. 5\. Any of the following: myocardial infarction, stroke, hospitalization for unstable angina or transient ischaemic attack within the past 60 days prior to screening 6. Subject presently classified as being in New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class III and IV 7. Elevated resting pulse rate (\>100 bpm) at Screening and Visit 1 8. Electrocardiogram (ECG) considered clinic ally significant by the Investigator at Screening 9. Known clinically significant gastric emptying abnormalities (for example, severe gastroparesis or gastric outlet obstruction), past gastric bypass (bariatric) surgery or restrictive bariatric surgery (for example, Lap-Band®), or chronic intake of drugs directly affecting gastrointestinal (GI) motility 10. History or presence of acute or chronic pancreatitis. 11. History or presence of acute or chronic diverticulitis or diverticulosis. 12. History or presence of a clinically significant active autoimmune abnormality (for example, lupus or rheumatoid arthritis) 13. History or presence of clinically significant gallbladder disease 14. Signs and symptoms of any other liver disease other than non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, or any of the following as determined during screening * Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level \>3.0X Upper limit of normal (ULN) for the reference range * Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) level \>1.5X ULN for the reference range, or * Total Bilirubin \>1.5X ULN for the reference range (except for cases of known Gilbert's Syndrome) 15. Evidence of hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism based on clinical evaluation and/or an abnormal thyroid-stimulating hormone that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would pose a risk to patient safety. Subjects on a stable dose of thyroid replacement therapy for at least the prior 3 months before Visit 1 who are clinically euthyroid and who are anticipated to remain on this dose throughout the trial period may be eligible if they meet the other criteria 16. Known self or family history (first-degree relative) of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2A or type 2B, thyroid C-cell hyperplasia, or medullary thyroid carcinoma 17. Eating habits consisting of eating relevant amounts of food throughout the night (after 10 p.m.; except if working on night shifts) 18. History or presence of bulimia or anorexia nervosa 19. History or presence of significant active or unstable Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) or other severe psychiatric disorder (for example, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or other serious mood or anxiety disorder) within the last 2 years. 20\. Lifetime history of suicide attempt 21. History of malignant neoplasms within the past 5 years prior to screening. Basal and squamous cell skin cancer and any carcinoma in-situ are allowed 22. Evidence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and/or positive HIV antibodies historically or at Screening 23. Evidence of hepatitis B and/or positive hepatitis B s
