ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Open-Label: 3.0 milligram (mg) Liraglutide
Participant will receive once-daily doses of 0.6, 1.2, 1.8, 2.4, or 3.0 mg. The participants will receive liraglutide at a starting dose of 0.6 mg SC once-daily on Day 1. Participants will be instructed to increase the dose of liraglutide by 0.6 mg dose increment every 7 days, up to the full dosage of 3.0 mg by Week 5. Participants will then continue on the 3.0 mg once-daily dosage until Week 26.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percent Change From Baseline in Body Weight at Week 26
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 26
Percent change in body weight in kilograms (kg) from baseline to Week 26 was reported.
Baseline, Week 26
Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Time Frame: Up to Week 30
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product, whether or not related to that medicinal (investigational or non-investigational) product. A TEAE was defined as an AE with an onset after the initiation study drug and before the last study drug date of the double-blind (26-week) treatment phase for plus 28 days for liraglutide participants, and plus 35 days for JNJ-64565111 and placebo participants.
Up to Week 30

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Greater Than or Equal to (>=) 5 Percent (%) Body Weight Loss at Week 26
Time Frame: Week 26
Number of participants with >= 5% body weight loss from baseline to Week 26 were reported.
Week 26
Number of Participants With Greater Than or Equal to 10 % Body Weight Loss at Week 26
Time Frame: Week 26
Number of participants with >= 10 % body weight loss from baseline to Week 26 were reported.
Week 26
Change From Baseline in Body Weight at Week 26
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 26
Change from baseline in body weight at Week 26 was reported.
Baseline, Week 26
